2
Your Freecom MediaPlayer-3 is already formatted (FAT-32) when it comes from  
the factory.  
If, when you turn on the player, the initial screen appears but after that the  
Video Audio Photo select screen does not appear, this means that the harddrive  
inside is not formatted. Please refer to the below instructions how to format a  
hard drive.  
Note: Partitioning your Freecom MediaPlayer-3 (PC only) on Chap-  
ter 7 page 19.  
The player also can recognize hard drive formatted using the Disc Management  
Utility or the Format Commander Utility in Windows 2000 and Windows XP.  
Please set the cluster size to default(4K) when you format HDD Drive as NTFS.  
Note:Ifyouwanttocreatemorethan2partitions, pleasesethard  
drive as primary and cluster size as FAT 32K, NTFS 4K using  
dedicated partitioning software.  
2.3 Storing multimedia files on the player  
When connected to a computer via USB 2.0, the player is recognized as and  
operates as a standard external hard drive. Through Windows Explorer, files can  
be copied, saved to and deleted from player (drag and drop).  
Copy your (downloaded) DivX/MPEG-4 movies, your music collection (MP3/  
WMA/Ogg), your digital photo’s to the MediaPlayer-3, via drag & drop. For your  
convenience, there are 3 default folders on the harddrive: Video, Audio and  
Photo. We advise you to store your video’s in the Video folder, your music in the  
Audio folder and your digital photo’s in the Photo folder. This will make it easy  
for you to find the files you want to play on your TV or HiFi.  
Of course you can add folders to the player as you wish.

Chapter 3: Connection to Television  
3.1 Connecting the video cables to TV  
Connect only one video cable directly to your TV system. The method of  
connecting depends on the available connectors on your TV set.  
Using Composite Video (CVBS, yellow): the easy way of transferring  
video signals. Use the supplied cable to connect the device to your TV.  
If you only have SCART connection on your TV, you have to use a SCART  
adapter (3x cinch Yellow/Red/White female to SCART male).  
Using S-Video (black): another way of connecting to the TV set; picture  
quality is better than CVBS.  
* If TV display is black and white, set the video mode as NTSC/ S-Video.  
Connecting the Y(green), Pb(blue) and Pr(red) cable: The “Progressive  
Scan” feature is available on the player, but this requires a special type of  
cable and TV set. This cable (also known as RGB-cable) is not supplied with  
the MediaPlayer-3.

Connection to Television  
3.2 Connecting the audio cables to TV/ Amplifier  
GB  
3
Connect only one audio cable type directly to your AV system. Connection  
depends on the connectors available on your AV set.  
AUDIO OUT (L/ R) jacks: To hear the sound of this Player through your TV  
or HiFi set, connect the audio cables (white/red) to the AUDIO IN jacks on the  
TV or AUX IN on your amplifier (cable supplied).  
OPTICAL: The digital 5.1 channel connection provides the best sound  
quality. It requires an A/V receiver that supports AC3 and DTS audio formats.  
Connect the Player’s digital audio outlets (optical) to the corresponding  
input on the amplifier. A special optical audiocable is required for this  
purpose, this cable is not supplied with the MediaPlayer-3.  
Also, change the player’s settings on the “AV settings” menu to DIGITAL, by  
pressing the A/D button on the remote control. Refer to your amplifier’s  
instruction manual for more information on correct setup and cables are not

The example above is a good solution for Windows 2000/XP users who some-  
times exchange data with Windows 98SE/ME PCs.  
For storing the data under Windows 2000/XP both partitions can be used. As the  
NTFS file systemis notrecognized byWindows98SE/MEdatato beused on these  
operating systems must be stored on the FAT32 partition.  
Please follow the steps below to adapt the MediaPlayer-3 for your needs.

Windows ME

correctly! Please ignore this as the partitioning results will still be OK.

8.3 PLAYING FILE  
Some of my DivX files freeze in high action scenes or when there is  
a lot going on in the picture.  
This can occur sometimes; it does not mean that there is something wrong  
with the player. It is simply because of the motion level in the movie, the  
playerwillresumeplayingthemovieafterafewseconds. Theonlythingyou  
can do is to convert the files to another format.  
Some of my DivX/ Xvid files do not have any sound  
This can be caused by many things; please make sure that you have set the  
encoded digital out audio signal correctly in the player’s setup menu. Check  
onyourPCthatthefileactuallyhassound. Itcanalsobebecausethefileuses  
an unsupported audio codec. Please make sure all connections to A/V  
receiver are correct and that you have used the required connection cables.  
I have problems playing DivX 3.11 with Ac3 or MP3 VBR sound?  
This can be an interleaving issue, please run the file through a program like  
Virtual Dub. Run a direct stream copy of both Audio and video.  
Some JPG files are not supported?  
Some non-standard JPEG files may not be displayed. Please use “save as…”  
option with graphic software.  
Do I have to install all firmware updates?  
No. If the player functions well, there is no need to upgrade the player. You  
only need to install the latest firmware to get all the new features.  
How do I check which firmware that is installed on my player?  
You can check which firmware version is installed by pressing the setup  
button on the remote control; the firmware version will show in the right  
bottom corner of the screen in the setup menu.
