ABOUT THE SMARTCARD AND CA MODULE To be able to receive scrambled digital satellite channels you will need a Smartcard and/or a Common Interface CA (Conditional Access) module* from the Service Provider of your choice. The Service Provider is the programme distributor. If you are subscribing to services from more than one Service Provider, you might have to change between different Smartcards and/or CA modules.
INSTALLATION OF THE MEDIAMASTER The box for your Mediamaster should contain the following items: • the Mediamaster • remote control with 2 AAA batteries • SCART cable (fully featured 1,0 metre) • aerial/RF cable (double screened 1,5 metres) • owner’s manual and software license agreement SCART cable Remote control RF cable Owner’s manual, License agreement About the SCART sockets The rear panel of the Mediamaster is equipped with 2 SCART sockets (see diagram).
INSTALLATION OF THE MEDIAMASTER General There are many different types of TV/VCR and other equipment that you can connect to the Mediamaster. In this manual you will see some of the most common ways to connect your equipment. If you use RF cables you will have to tune your TV and VCR to the Mediamaster output channel (see page 11). If you have problems with your connections and need help, contact your dealer or Service Provider.
INSTALLATION OF THE MEDIAMASTER Connecting an analogue satellite receiver and a VCR • Connect a SCART cable between the main SCART socket on the TV and the TV SCART socket on the Mediamaster. With Nokia smart switch • Connect a SCART cable between the VCR and the AUX SCART socket on the Mediamaster. • Connect an RF cable from the RF output on the VCR to the TV aerial input on the TV. VCR RF SCART • Connect an RF cable from the RF output on the analogue receiver to the RF input socket on the VCR.
INSTALLATION OF THE MEDIAMASTER Switching on for the first time with SCART connections • Plug in your Mediamaster • Now you will see the ”Welcome” menu on the screen. • Press OK on the Mediamaster remote control to start the Installation procedure. You may now proceed to “First time installation”, see next page. Tuning procedure when RF connections are used This procedure is necessary if your Mediamaster is connected to the TV with an RF cable, and not via SCART.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION General information Once you have correctly connected the Mediamaster, you also have to perform a “First Time Installation.” During this procedure, helpful information is displayed at the bottom of the menus. Please note! The OK button always confirms a selection within these menus, and pressing it will take you to the next step in the installation process. However, and this is important, often more than one value has to be entered in a menu.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION RF modulator type If the Mediamaster is connected to the TV with a RF cable, you must select the right RF modulator alternative, which is dependent on the country where the Mediamaster is being used. Select “Normal (PAL B/G)” for all countries except the UK. Select “UK (PAL I)” when the box is used in the UK. If you get picture but no sound, the RF modulator selection might be wrong.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION Line 1 through 4 on the antenna satellite selection menu Select one of the alternatives ASTRA, HOTBIRD, SIRIUS or THOR when you have a single LNB pointed towards any of these satellites. Pressing OK from the selected alternative will display the “Antenna adjustment” menu (shown to the right) on the screen. For each satellite, (e.g. ASTRA, HOTBIRD, SIRIUS, THOR), up to 4 different channels are preprogrammed and shown in the menu.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION Line 5 and 6 on the antenna satellite selection menu Select one of these alternatives when you have a single antenna equipped with 2 LNBs, or two antennas with one LNB on each, and want to watch channels from ASTRA/HOTBIRD or THOR/ SIRIUS. In this case you must first connect the LNBs to an external switch since there is only one antenna input on the Mediamaster. Once installed the switch automatically selects the correct LNB for the selected channel.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION Line 7 on the antenna satellite selection Menu This selection is necessary only when your satellite choice differs from the preprogrammed satellite alternatives in the following ways; • if you do not use an universal LNB • when you have more than two LNB’s. • You also must select this alternative when your antenna is controlled by motor (ref. to page 19.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION For each LNB you connect to the DiSEqC switch, the following configuration has to be performed. As an example the following part will describe how the LNB intended for Astra 1 will be configured to the DiSEqC input A on the switch and the LNB intended for Hotbird to DiSEqC input B. LNB type Select “Universal” or the local oscillator (L. O.) frequency valid for the connected LNB.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION Multisatellite/four port DiSEqC Select this alternative if your antenna system has four LNBs and when you are not using any of the alternatives on the lines 5 - 6 from the menu “Antenna/satellite selection” on page 13. The selection of the different LNBs must be controlled by an external switch. Refer to page 15. The procedure is the same as for mini DiSEqC and two port DiSEqC, but you have to configure four LNBs the same way as described on page 16-17.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION Manual search When you perform a Manual search you first need to enter some parameters for the channel search to work. The information you need to enter in this menu is available in magazines covering satellite TV reception, on the Internet or from your Service Provider. Transponder frequency: Specify the frequency in GHz. If you enter the wrong figure(s), erase with the button. Polarization: Select Horizontal, Vertical, Circular left or Circular right.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION Type of motor • Select SATSCAN if it is a Nokia SatScan motor. • Select DiSEqC in case the motor you use is controlled by DiSEqC commands. LNB type • Select Universal, one of the fixed frequencies or enter the LNB frequency with the numeric buttons on the remote control. LNB offset voltage If the cable down from the antenna is very long, the voltage at the LNB could be too low to change the polarization. You can increase the voltage to the LNB by 0,5 Volt.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION • Select one of the Predefined channels and press OK to..... .....start the main search procedure for (in this case) the ASTRA channels. The search procedure will take a while. Please refer to page 22. When the channel search from ASTRA is finished you can search for channels from other satellites if you have a motor antenna. • Press MENU on the remote control and the Main menu will appear on the screen.
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION The position of 22 satellites are preprogrammed in the SatScan motor. As long as you select satellite positions from the line “Automatic search” you also have access to preprogrammed TV channels that makes it easy to check the signal quality. • From line 1 Automatic search, select the satellite from which you want to search for channels. Then the procedure is the same as for the first satellite installation.
VIEWING MODE General information The following describes the basic functions of your Mediamaster while watching satellite TV or listening to satellite radio. Some of the functions described here are dependent on the Service Provider and can only be used if they are included in the transmitted programme information. Please note, that during the Channel search procedure, the Mediamaster may have downloaded a large number of channels.
VIEWING MODE The “i” (information) button The Mediamaster has the ability to display information about programmes currently being broadcast as well as those being broadcast next. This procedure is the same for both TV and radio mode. By pressing the “i” button while watching TV you will get a special “Programme information” banner. Select channel with or the numeric buttons.
VIEWING MODE List of TV and radio channels Name of the Channel list Indicates a closed satellite At the channel search procedure, three channel lists are created. One list named “All TV” containing all channels, another named “Free TV” containing only free channels and “Viasat” containing channels distributed by Viasat. In the “All TV” list scrambled channels are marked with a picture of a Smartcard (if this information is transmitted in the signal) and locked channels are marked with a padlock.
VIEWING MODE TV release (0) With the 0 button you can toggle between analogue terrestrial TV, video, analogue and digital satellite TV signals. (This is only valid if the units are connected via SCART cables, and not by a RF connection.)

HARD DISK RECORDING About hard disk recording As you probably already know this box is equipped with a built in Personal Active Disc. This is a hard disk, similar to those in ordinary Personal Computers (PCs). On this hard disk it is possible to record about 15-20 hours of TV and radio programmes. To get the most out of the disk recording procedure, follow these simple tips to keep the disk well prepared for coming recordings.
HARD DISK RECORDING Different ways of making recordings There are three ways of making a recording. In this manual they are separated in the following way: 1 A Pause recording This function is useful when you make a break while watching TV. We will describe how this function can be used when you get a phone call. 2 A Normal recording Spontaneously start a recording at any time you want. As you will see, the procedure differs a bit from the Pause recording.
HARD DISK RECORDING The Pause ( ) Recording To describe this, let us say that the phone starts to ring while you are watching TV. You do not want to miss anything of the programme, so you decide to make a pause recording. To start it you only have to press two buttons on the remote control. • First, call up the recording menu by pressing • Then, start the pause recording . by pressing OK. • The picture will freeze and the sound will be turned off at the moment the recording starts. • Answer the phone.
HARD DISK RECORDING What is happening during playback of a pause recording that is still in progress? When the playback starts, a few other things also happen at the same time. • Although the pause recording is still going on, the display now will start to show “PLAY” instead of “PAUS”. • The text at the bottom of the recording menu now will start to show “Playing” instead of “Pause”. • At this moment, when you start a playback, the left counter starts to show elapsed time of the playback.
HARD DISK RECORDING The Normal recording When you want to perform what we call a Normal recording. • Press on the remote control to pick up the recording menu. • Step down to “ ” in the menu. • Start the recording by pressing OK. • The display on the box will show “r E C” during this type of recording. • If you press the green button on the remote control while a recording is in progress you can preset the recording time. This is called OTR (one touch recording).
HARD DISK RECORDING To start playback of a recording You find a finished recording in the List of recordings which you reach by • Pick up the recording menu to the screen by pressing • Select from the menu to pick up the List of recordings to the screen • Step to one of the recordings with and press OK • The Handle Recording menu appears • Select Play and the playback starts • The left counter starts to show elapsed time • The right one shows the total length of the recording and the elapsed time in % T
HARD DISK RECORDING Watch the playback at a different speed To speed up a playback or to find a certain position in a recording, you can use functions such as • Fast forward • Rewind • Slow motion The functions can be performed not only during a normal playback, but also during a pause recording in progress. Fast Forward and Rewind during playback of an already finished recording While watching the playback of a recording you can start Fast Forward or Rewind by pressing the appropriate button.
HARD DISK RECORDING The Slow Motion function The Slow Motion function is a way to watch a playback in a slower way than the normal playback speed. This function is the same for all types of recordings. It only works in the forward direction, never backwards. To playback in Slow Motion mode: • First you must start the playback of a recording. • Then put it into pause mode by pressing OK. • Start the function with any of the buttons.
HARD DISK RECORDING The Edit ( ) function It sometimes happen that some extra minutes from the programme that starts after or before the one you want to save also will be recorded. If so, you can use the function. It will give you the opportunity to erase parts in the beginning and at the end of a recording. You can also split a recording into two separate recordings. Note! It is important that you have at least 8 Mb space left on the hard disk in order to split a file.
HARD DISK RECORDING List of recordings ( ) As mentioned earlier, all recordings will be stored in the List of recordings. To reach it, select “ ” from the recording menu. In addition to the recordings, the List also contains an important information about the disk: • Time available: Here you will be informed about the estimated time available on the disk. You must be aware of that the time indication is a really rough estimate, but it will give a hint of available time.
HARD DISK RECORDING Rename You can give the recording a new name. Note that the first lines contains only channel information and are not possible to rename. • Step to the last line and press OK. • To enter the new name, please follow the instructions for “Rename Channels” on page 42. The new name that you enter will now be shown in the List of recordings. Erase Enter this menu when you want to clean up the disk from certain recordings.
HARD DISK RECORDING Save a recording as Erasable or Permanent To avoid that a Pause or Normal recording will be erased, it is a good idea to change its property from erasable to Permanent. Default property for a pause recording When a pause recording is created, in the List of recordings it will automatically get the extension (......Pause) at the end of its name. The number of pause recordings in the List of recordings will be kept constant to the limit you have defined in “Saved Pause Recordings”, ref.
