Northstar 8000i Operation Manual 163
30.1 Show multiple entertainment panes
You can create a page that has more than one entertainment pane on it; for
example, a DVD in one pane and the music jukebox in another pane, but only one
pane can be active.
You can also have one or more entertainment panes on a page that shows other
8000i functions, such as the radar. This can be useful if you need to monitor the
situation while you're at anchor, for example. See "Edit a page" in the Northstar
8000i Quickstart for more information.
Just select the entertainment pane that you want to listen to or watch. This
immediately becomes the active pane, identified by a red border. The audio
always comes from the active pane.
If you're watching a DVD or a video in a pane and then hide that pane, the 8000i
pauses the playback and resumes it only when you display that pane again.
If you're playing music in a pane, the 8000i will continue to play the music, even if
the pane is not active or not visible, until you pause the music or select another
pane that has audio.
30.2 What file formats are supported?
The music library stores audio files in WMA and MP3 format only.
The video library stores visual content in MPEG, WMV and AVI format only.
Currently the 8000i does not support High Definition (HD) videos and HD DVDs, or
Enhanced Definition (ED) videos.
30.3 Turn the volume up or down
You can use the VOL button to adjust the volume of whatever you're listening to.
To turn the volume up or down:
1. Select
VOL. The 8000i shows the current volume setting as a line
within a solid box of color and as a percentage.
2. Drag the line, or use the rotary knob to change the volume setting to a
comfortable level.
3. Select
OK. The new setting is applied immediately and stays until you
change it again.
NOTE: If you find (for example) that music CDs always seem very loud compared to
the other entertainment options, you can adjust the default volume settings of the
entertainment applications to make the volume level consistent across all of the
different entertainment options. See "Set the volume levels for the entertainment
applications".
