Appendix: Media Manager
1.1 Unlocking standard and
add-on software
When you first start the Media Manager, you will require the
unlocking code for the `Premium Pack´ product to fully activate
all the functions . Casablanca S-2000 and S-4000 editors are
shipped with this code already included in the box; Renom-
mee and Solitaire upgrade (Ultra board) customers receive this
code along with their product licence code list . Once you have
the code, you can enter the Media Manager from the Bogart
SE main menu and begin with setting things up . Starting the
Media Manager takes a few seconds . The menu initially does
not contain all of the function icons . Click onto the wrench
symbol at the bottom left and enter the Setting menu, then the
Basic Settings by pressing the `1´ . Now select `Install Product´
by clicking `3´ to see the list of available, pre-installed pro-
grams . Select the `Premium Pack´, now click onto the green
clover icon to activate it . The `Activate product´ screen promp-
ts you with the selected product and serial number of your
device . Use the trackball to enter the code numbers (alterna-
tively, a keyboard) . If everything is correct, you will return to
the Install Product menu of the Media Manager and all func-
tions of the Premium Pack should now be at your disposal . To
check this, press the right trackball button twice to return to
the Media Manager main menu . It should now look like this:
If you wish to add further software to the Media Manager at a
later stage, you can repeat the above procedure . Unlocking
codes are given to you either when buying the product or with
the respective software shipped directly by MacroSystem or
the responsible distributor . If you want to hide a product, se-
lect it from the Install Product menu and press the yellow star
symbol .
1.2 General notes on operation
Note: In order to avoid the menus burning themselves into
modern TV screens, the Media Manager display darkens the
display after 30 minutes of non-usage. The screen returns to
regular display brightness as soon as you move the trackball,
press any key on the keyboard or remote control. You can find
more details in chapter 3.2.2.
Operating the Media Manager is possible using the trackball,
keyboard, and depending on the Casablanca type even using
a MacroSystem remote control . Important: When controlling
using a trackball, you will require a 4-button trackball to fully
use all of the available functions .
The four buttons of the trackball:
Large button on the left: Select button
Large button on the right: Cancel/return
Small button on the left: Help
Small button on the right: Main menu
The Power Key keyboard can be used to move lists up and
down using the cursor, and move into and out of albums (fol-
ders) using left/right .
Similarly, the functions for recording, playback, stop and pau-
se are also available .
When controlling using a remote, numbered menus can also
be reached by simply pressing the respective number . More
information on operation can be found by pressing the help
key on the remote (bottom right) .
1.2.1 Lists
Depending on the menu, there are multiple lists for playback,
importing or exporting . When using a trackball, you can select
items in the list by clicking them . For longer lists, you can also
scroll the list . For this, click the narrow dark blue slider next to
the list . Keyboard users can use the arrow keys up/down for
choosing an item . The MacroSystem Power Key keyboard also
features special keys for playback, pause and stop . Remote
users can scroll up and down the list using the buttons `P+´
and `P-´ or FF and RW . Hold down the button to accelerate the
scrolling speed . You can read more about the direction of the
list scrolling in chapter 3 .2 .3 .
1.2.2 Selecting menu points
There are various ways of selecting menu points in the Me-
dia Manager . When using a trackball, use the left button to
press the symbol on the screen . In some cases, there is no
direct menu available (such as when you play a DVD) . You can
however, press the help button and select a function from the
help screen . With a remote control, you can simply press the
