91 Bogart SE 2 user manual
To make it easier to access the folders that are used to
communicate with the Casablanca, we recommend that you
choose folder names with the same prefix, for example let the
folders begin with `EP_´ . You can then set up the public folder
search filter to find these folders . Confirm with OK to list all
found video and audio folders . The folder structure itself is
not shown . Pictures are also not shown directly . Switch to the
photo archive to access the images . You can show the files
either by pressing Play, or you can press the Record button
to import the files to the Media Manager . You can import both
video and audio data at the same time . The Casablanca will
copy the files to the correct archives . The network is not capa-
ble of recognizing the file lengths and hence shows `unknown´ .
As soon as you play the file, the length is shown . The quality
of playback depends very much on the speed of your network,
data rate of the file, resolution and complexity . In some cases,
the playback may not be fully fluid . In that case, import the film
to your Casablanca to play it directly from the hard-drive .
Pictures can be imported from the photo archive . Enter the
Import section and choose the Network source . In the Import
menu, you can select the images to be copied to your archive .
You can improve the network overview by organizing audio,
video and photo on your PC .
3 Settings
In the main menu of the Media Manager, press the Settings
button to enter this menu . Here, you will find all kinds of diffe-
rent menus, information and various settings .
3.1 Basic settings
The basic settings allow you to read the capacity of the hard-
drive and some system information . This includes the software
and hardware versions, the DVD/Blu-ray drive version, hard-
drive size, memory and serial number of the editor .
Exit the system information, press the back/return button .
2.5.Internet browser
A special adapted version of the Firefox internet browser gives
you access to the internet . Control is handled via the remote
control but also using a keyboard and mouse/trackball .
To access the Internet, the Casablanca requires an external
router (ISDN or DSL, DHCP capable) . Connect to the router or
WLAN adapter using an Ethernet cable or via the network in
the power circuit . Such components can be purchased along
with your Casablanca equipment . A PC is not required . Use
the help function to find out about extended functions . The
start of the Internet browser may take longer, depending on
the network and connection speed . The internet menus are
shown on the TV screen you are using for editing . A separate
monitor is not required .
Note: The internet browser plays audio only from Flash con-
tent . Other play options are currently not supported . Even if the
browser suggests to download needed players, the Casablan-
ca system does not support this due to the protection against
viruses, downloading data is not possible . This is to protect
your film, music and photo archives against hacker attacks
and viruses .
2.6 Network
If the Casablanca editor you are using is equipped with an
Ethernet connection, it is possible to access public folders
on a PC using a router . The protocol required for this is SMB .
You can use this feature to copy video, music or show photos
on your Casablanca editor or use the Universal Player to play
the data without copying the data to your system . To allow for
such a connection, you have to make some preparations . You
have to make the needed folders on your PC public, so that
the Casablanca can access them . Please read the documenta-
tion that came with your computer or operating system to find
out how to make folders public . When you enter the Network
menu on your Casablanca, the system will begin searching for
any public folders on your PC .
