User Manual
GETTING STARTED – 13
Wait a few seconds for your TV to detect the HD media player. If the HD media
player is not detected, you may need to change the input source on your TV to
HDMI or composite, depending on your connection. Check the user
documentation of your TV for more information.
Once the HD media player is detected, the splash screen displays to indicate
system bootup, then the home screen of the user interface opens.
For more information, see “Using the WD HD TV Media Player Menu” on page 21.
