ISO Compatibility
Only with Philips Multimedia Hard Disk can you play your own Virtual DVD Library after storing your private
collection of DVDs in ISO format, and watch them as if they were running from the original DVDs.
Once the movies are stored on the Philips Multimedia Hard Disk as .ISO files, you can play them just like an original
DVD with full DVD functions: Menu, Chapter selection, Audio stream selection, Subtitle selection, Fast Forward,
Fast Backwards, Slow, Pause, Step Forward, Repeat, and Search are all included.
An ISO file is the image file of a
DVD disk. ISO files are widely used
to store and transfer DVD contents
through the Internet. ISO is a
common DVD image format for
DOS, Windows, Mac OSX, Linux
and other operating systems.
The ISO files are huge in size, but
this is not a limitation for Philips
Multimedia Hard Disk.
Philips Multimedia Hard Disk is not
designed or intended to, and may
not be used to violate any
copyrights or other IP (Intellectual Property) rights.
Each user of Philips Multimedia Hard Disk may only use it in connection with materials legally owned by or licensed
to the user, and only extend such ownership or license rights that will permit such use.
ISO files can be created with third party software, such as Nero Burning ROM.
21
DivX Compatibility
DivX® is a format for digital video. The DivX® codec is based on the MPEG-4 compression standard, which is so
advanced that it can reduce an MPEG-2 video (the same format used for DVD) to 10% of its original size.
Philips Multimedia Hard Disk is fully compatible with DivX® format and can play any movie encoded with this
compression format no matter which version of the encoder used: 3.11, 4.x, 5.x.
If you want to use external text subtitles:
Make sure that you have stored your subtitles in the same folder as the corresponding movie.
(E.g. “movie.avi” and “movie.srt” in the folder)
Make sure that the subtitle file has the same name (not the same extension) as the movie file.
Make sure that the subtitles format is supported are in supported format (SUB (MicroDVD Format), SRT
(SubRIP Format), SMI (SAMI))
DivX® VOD compatibility
Your Philips Multimedia Hard Disk device supports the new DivX® Video-On-Demand (VOD) feature. With this
feature, you have the possibility to purchase or rent DivX VOD movies (downloaded from the internet), and
playback on your Philips Multimedia Hard Disk DivX Certified device.
Visit www.divx.com/vod for information about how DivX VOD works.
Before you can enjoy DivX® VOD, your Multimedia Hard Disk must be activated via the DivX Player application.
An 8-character DivX VOD registration code ( “Activation ID”) is needed for this, which can be retrieved from the
Philips Multimedia Hard Disk. Select the 'DivX® VOD' option from the 'Settings' menu and press OK to see the
