The mediaplayer needs to be set to 'UTF-8' using the following steps:

• Go to 'Settings'
• Go to 'System'
• Go to 'Text encoding'
• Select 'Unicode(UTF8)' and press the 'OK' button of the remote control
  
  Then edit the tags of the MP3 file itself. For example: Use MP3tag for this purpose. You do need to use the latest version of MP3tag. Older versions only have support for UTF-16, which is not supported by the EM7080
• Go to 'Options' in the MP3tag menu
• Go to 'Tags' and then 'Mpeg'
• Select 'ID3 2.4'
  
  MP3tag can be downloaded from: Download MP3tag

• Go to 'Settings/System' and press the 'OK' button on the remote control
• Select 'About' and press the 'OK' button on the remote control
• The current firmware version is shown at 'Firmware Version'

If your media player is not able to connect wirelessly, you can try the following:

Network name (SSID) & Network key

• Are you trying to connect to the correct network (SSID)? You can check this by using a computer or other device which is connected wirelessly. Check the SSID by which the device is connected
• Are you using the correct network key? This can be checked by using a computer which is already connected to the wireless (modem)router. Login to the wireless (modem)router and check whether the network key on this device is the same network key as you are using to connect the media player. Refer to the manual of the (modem)router for the correct steps
• Check whether the (modem)router has an active Mac-Filter table. A Mac-Filter table can be the cause that new devices are not allowed to connect to the wireless (modem)router. Refer to the manual of the (modem)router for the correct steps
• Preferably do not use ‘strange’ characters in the network key (&%#@!). If you are using any of these characters, please try to set a network key on the wireless (modem)router without these characters and try to reconnect the media player. Refer to the manual of the (modem)router for the correct steps

Other causes

• It is possible the signal of the wireless router is not sufficient enough for the media player. Try to locate the media player in such a way the signal will not be blocked
• The wireless (modem) might be using a frequency which does not work correctly. You can change the channel of the wireless (modem)router and try to connect again.  Refer to the manual of the (modem)router for the correct steps
• If you are not able to connect because the name of the nework (SSID) is not shown, and this cannot be solved by changing the channel, it is possible your wireless (modem)router is using a 5Ghz range. The media player does not support the 5Ghz range. The media player supports the 2.4Ghz range. Login to the wireless (modem)router and change the range to 2.4 Ghz or to a combined 2.4Ghz+5Ghz range. Refer to the manual of the (modem)router for the correct steps

Although the working of a scart adapter plug can not be guaranteed, it is possible it will work.

Usually, a scart adapter plug has three seperate connections for composite connections (as is also shown in the next image):

• Yellow (video signal)
• White (analog sound signal)
• Red (analog sound signal)

• You need to connect the composite cables which are supplied by the media player to the corresponding connections of the media player and to the corresponding connections of the scart adapter plug
• After connecting the cables to the scart adapter plug, you need to connect the scart adapter to a free scart port on your television
• Turn on your media player
• Turn on your television
• Set your television to the correct video channel

Most likely, the sound setting on the media player is not correct. Often, the 'Audio Output' is wrongly set. Use the following steps to correct this:

• Go to 'Settings/Audio Video' and press the 'OK' button on the remote control
• Select 'Audio Output' and press the 'OK' button
• Set 'Audio Output' to 'Stereo' and press the 'OK' button
• Restart the media player and play another file. If correct, the creaking sound will not be present

CEC stands for 'Consumer Electronics Control'. HDMI CEC is a functionality within the HDMI standard. Using this feature, it becomes more user friendly to control multiple HDMI devices. The CEC protocol itself is transported using PIN 13 of the HDMI connector.

The wiring for the CEC protocol is always present in each HDMI cable, this is compulsory. However, manufacturers of HDMI devices are not obligated to implement the CEC protocol in their HDMI devices.

The characteristics of CEC

• CEC is used for functions which are usually done by a remote control
• Makes use of the standarized AV Link protocol
• Up-to ten HDMI devices can be controlled
• CEC was already present in the first HDMI specification. It received multiple updates in HDMI version 1.2a and 1.3a (extra timer and audio features). The audio features are commonly used in a lot of new HDMI devices. This feature is also known as 'ARC' (Audio Return Channel)

What can you do with HDMI CEC?

By using the CEC protocol, you can control multiple CEC enabled devices using one remote control. The devices can also control each other without the interference of a user. Theoretically, it is possible to switch all HDMI devices on and off using one remote control.

Disadvantage of the CEC protocol

The CEC protocol has not been a completely standarized protocol. As result, most manufacturers of HDMI devices have developed their own CEC protocol (with implementations of their own company). Therefore, it is save to say that CEC is not cross-brand.

The main disadvantage of not being cross-brand, is the fact that HDMI devices from the same manafacturer do work perfectly when using CEC. However, when a CEC device from another manufacturer is used, or a device without CEC such as some media players, there is a big chance the CEC function does not work at all anymore.
