OPERATION

pressing the OK Button. The image may be rotated only while it is
being viewed. Press the Disc Menu Button and select the “Rotate”
option. Press the

Slideshows
A slideshow is a continuous display of the image files in the current
folder. As explained below, if one or more audio files are stored on
the same disc or USB drive as the images, the slideshow may be
accompanied by background music.
• Begin slideshow: Highlight the folder containing the images, or
highlight the first image file, or start viewing an image. Press the Disc
Menu Button. In each case a different dropdown menu will appear,
but all will offer the “Start Slideshow” option. Select it and press the
› Button. Select the desired transition effect from the list (Blend,
Film, Shutter, Fade or Curtain), or select “None” for no special effect
when changing images. Press the OK Button, and the images will be
displayed continuously until manually stopped.
• Change transition effect: While viewing the slideshow, press the
Disc Menu Button and select the “Slideshow Effect” option. Press the
› Button, then select the desired effect.
• Change duration: The BDP 1 is programmed at the factory to
display each image for one second, then skip to the next image.
To change the duration, a slideshow must be playing. Press the
Disc Menu Button. Select the “Slideshow Duration” option, and press
the
› Button, then select the desired duration time: 3, 5, 10 or 30
seconds, or 1, 5 or 30 minutes. Press the OK Button to resume
the slideshow. The new duration will remain in effect for all future
slideshows until it is manually changed.
Add background audio to a slideshow
Select the desired audio file and program it into the background
music playlist by pressing the Disc Menu Button. Select the “Slideshow
Music” option and press the
› Button. The first time, you will see a
dropdown menu with the word “NONE” repeated five times. Each
“NONE” line represents one of the five spaces in the Slideshow Music
playlist, and indicates that the place is empty. Select one of the five
places and press the OK Button. If you select a place that already
contains an audio file, the old file will be replaced by the new one.
The first time you add background music to a slideshow, the slideshow
must already be playing. Press the Disc Menu Button and select the
“Slideshow Music” option. Press the
› Button, and select the desired
audio file. Press the OK Button. To turn off the background music, select
the “NONE” option and press the OK Button.
NOTES:
• Only five audio files may be programmed into the Slideshow
Music playlist.
• No matter how many files are available in the Slideshow
Music playlist, only one at a time may be selected for
playback.
• When the Slideshow Music file finishes, it will repeat continuously
until the slideshow is stopped, or the Slideshow Music option
is turned off.
• Pressing the Previous and Next Buttons during a slideshow
only affects the image display. It cannot be used to select
another Slideshow Music file.
