OPERATING THE WD TV HD MEDIA PLAYER – 25
Locating Your Content on the drive
There are two ways of locating a particular media file depending on whether the
media library compilation function is enabled or not.
Manual Search
You can manually search for a media file by navigating to the specific media section
and browsing through the available file folders. This method is recommended if there
are only a limited number of files to search through. Otherwise, it is better to enable
the Media Library Compilation and use the built-in Search function.
Use the navigation buttons to move around a particular folder; press to move
between folders.
Thumbnail support for media files
Your WD TV HD media player supports thumbnails in two ways - embedded or user
generated (some file formats do not support thumbnails).
Supported embedded formats with thumbnail:
Music - MP3 and WMA
Photo - JPEG (from EXIF or WDTV will auto generate thumbnails)
Video - MP4
To generate a thumbnail to a file:
1. Select a JPEG file that you want to display as a thumbnail of the music or video
file.
2. Save the file in the same location as the file it will represent.
Folder Thumbnails view functions (defaults)
Music:
• Display folder.JPG (the image file must be named “folder.JPG” or thumbnail will
not function)
• If no folder .JPG file is found, display the first album art image (.MP3 with
embedded .JPG)
• If no album art is available, display the first .JPG in the folder
