After you have correctly connected your device, you can access its
files on your device by pressing the MENU button of your remote
control to enter the Player menu. Go to the USB section and select
the type of content you would like to browse.
Note: The KiSS 1600 supports the following file systems on mass
storage devices: FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS. Some variant USB file
systems may not be supported.
Note: If you do not know which file system your mass storage
device is using, please consult the User Guide for the device or
contact the manufacturer for this information. Please also note
that the KiSS 1600 only supports mass storage devices in “read
only” mode. This means that you cannot rename, delete or alter
your files (in any way) on the drive from the KiSS 1600.
Note: Streaming video from a USB device depends on the
maximum bit rate, and a very high bit rate may not always be
supported.
Note: Although the KiSS 1600 USB connector supplies enough
power to supply standard low-power devices (like USB memory
sticks), some devices, like USB Hard Disk Drives may require too
much energy to be self-powered by the KiSS 1600. These devices
therefore have to use their own power supply.
