Tips & Tricks for Playing iPod Videos
WHY CAN’T I USE ON-SCREEN NAVIGATION TO BROWSE AND SELECT MY
VIDEOS AND SLIDESHOWS USING THE HOMEDOCK DELUXE?
The current Apple iPod firmware requires that you select and start video or
photo slideshows on the iPod itself.
It does not allow on-screen navigation of
videos or photos - only music.
You can, however control playback and trans-
port functions of videos and photos like Play/Pause, Fast Forward, Rewind,
etc. using the HomeDock Deluxe Remote. To see the many functions you can
control with the HomeDock Deluxe Remote Control, refer to
Playing Photo
Slideshows
or Watching iPod Videos. (See pages 14-16)
SET YOUR IPOD’S “TV OUT” SETTING TO ON TO SAVE A STEP
On your iPod, you can set your “TV Out” setting to “TV On” and it won’t ask you
every time you watch a video whether a TV is hooked up or not. If you ever
want to watch a video on your iPod screen again, simply go to “Video Settings”
and change the preference back.
