Problem Question Answer
I’m not sure if my
external USB hard
drive is recognized by
the LaCinema Mini
HD Bridge.
Using the remote control, navigate to one of these spaces: Music, Photo, or Movie, and see if USB1 is listed. If it
is, your hard drive is recognized.
The external USB
hard drive isn’t
recognized by the
LaCinema Mini HD
Bridge.
Is the drive formatted in a compat-
ible file system?
Check section 3.1.1. Option A: Connect External Hard Drive to see if your
drive’s file system is compatible with the LaCinema Mini HD Bridge. Note
that drives formatted in HFS+ (Mac OS extended) Journaled are incom-
patible. To reformat the drive, see 8. Reformatting the LaCinema Mini HD
Bridge.
Is the drive receiving enough
power?
Make sure the drive’s power supply is connected and the drive is turned
on. If your drive has an optional power supply, connect it.
Did you follow the setup steps in
the prescribed order?
See 3.1.1. Option A: Connect External Hard Drive.
Try physical troubleshooting.
1. Change the USB cable. A failure in the cable can prevent a proper
connection.
2. Change the drive’s external power supply or cable.
3. Try a different USB hard drive.
