Push2TV HD Adapter
General Troubleshooting
Minor issues can generally be resolved by any of the following:
• Detaching and re-attaching the power from the HD base
• Changing the display mode through the DisplayLink GUI
• Changing the display mode through Windows Display Properties
On Windows 7 or Windows Vista WDDM (Aero and Basic), DisplayLink software works closely
with the graphics card, and there might be interoperability issues with some graphics cards. If
this happens:
1. Try to upgrade to the latest graphics drivers. This is also known as a GPU driver update
(Graphics processing unit).
2. Try to upgrade to the latest DisplayLink software.
For further support and information about DisplayLink software, please visit

Additionally, in Windows 7, NETGEAR recommends that you work in Aero Desktop Theme. For
more information, see
Aero Desktop Theme on page 55.

Recommended Media Player Applications
NETGEAR recommends that you use Power DVD, which can be downloaded from:

Though other media players, such as Windows Media Player or VLC, can be used, Power
DVD has been seen to give the best combination of HD 1080p performance and Surround
5.1 audio.
Note: For best performance, use Media Player in Extend mode. For
additional information, see Configuring the Display on page 22.
Media Player Configuration
The following steps describe how to set the Power DVD for surround audio. Check your
media player documentation for the equivalent settings in order for the surround audio to
work correctly.
