Listening and Viewing
USB Flash Drives or Media Players
You can connect up to two USB flash drives or a media player such as an iPod to a USB port on
the front or rear panel of the Digital Entertainer Express.
The Digital Entertainer Express plays files stored in Windows (FAT, FAT32, NTFS), Macintosh, or
Linux disk formats. It does not matter if you set up the music player on a PC or a Mac.
To play media with a USB connection:
1. Either use a USB cable or directly insert your USB product to the USB port on the front or rear
of the Digital Entertainer Express.
The Digital Entertainer Express scans the media, and then the media files are available for you
to play on the Digital Entertainer Express.
2. If you want to play the media on your USB device, press Music, Video, or Pics on the remote
control, and then select the media files.
Note: Be sure to use USBv2 devices with your Digital Entertainer Express. The limited
bandwidth of the older USBv1 devices might interfere with the performance of
your playback.

Note: When browsing media files on an iPod, note that iTunes uses an unusual file-
naming convention to store music files on the iPod. The Digital Entertainer
Express can display only the folder names as they are saved on the iPod. You
can find the files by using other criteria, such as artist or genre.
