Release Notes

Philips Media Manager 3.2.1

Welcome to your Philips Media Manager. PMM offers you the following:

New Features

WMA support:

During installation you will be asked whether you require WMA support. For the moment,

you can only play-out WMA files on the SL50i and the SLA5500. Note that to have WMA

support working you will need to install the latest version of DirectX onto your system.

Existing Features

Subtitle support:

It is possible to show subtitles while viewing a movie (mainly DiVX) on a Streamium device.

Subtitles files need to have the .srt extension. If a subtitle file has the same name as a movie,

the file will be automatically picked up by PMM. You can also manually select a subtitle file

by selecting “Edit Subtitle Information” in the context menu of a video item in PMM.

Favorites:

PMM offers the user an easy way to mark certain audio, video and pictures files as favorites.

All these files are shown in a folder called “Favorites”. You can mark files as favorite by

dragging them to this folder. Favorites will appear as such on your Streamium device and can

be managed from there as well using the favorites buttons on your remote control.

Multiple language support:

You can change the language of Philips Media Manager from the General tab in the Settings

menu. The new language will be effective after an (automatic) restart of PMM. If PMM is

configured for a language different than used during installation, it will automatically

download help files in the selected language from the Internet.

New options during the installation of PMM:

During installation of PMM, you can now select whether PMM should be added to the

Windows start-up folder, whether to create icons on the desktop and in the quick launch bar

and whether PMM should be started straight away after installation.

Media Types:

Philips Media Manager provides three content categories: Music, Pictures and Movies. Each

section will operate very similarly, including support for playlists, picture albums and movie

collections.

Pictures:

Watch your content by thumbnail within the application (no separate window). You can select

the view (thumbnail or list) of the items in a picture album or movie collection. JPEG, GIF

and BMP are supported.

Movies:

The Movies section supports MPEG 1, 2, and 4, and DiVX 3, 4 and 5 as well as XVid.

Movies will playback in a separate window by launching the default application of Windows

associated to the media type.

Watch Folders:

All changes made to media in a watch folder using PMM are also applied to the files in that

folder. If the settings “Automatically scan for changes” is activated; the reverse also holds.

Any changes to files in a watch folding using another tool than PMM become also visible in

PMM.

Media Information:

By right clicking on a file you can edit the Media Information and modify the file like you

want. For example, edit your mp3’s Artist/ Title/ Album or Genre, or with pictures, enter the

Subject/ Title or Location.

Internal MP3 Player:

Apart from playing your mp3s on your Streamium, you can also play them in PMM using an

integrated audio player. The player also contains the usual functions like shuffle, repeat, or

create playlists. This will allow you to personally fine-tune the playback of your favourite

music on PC.

My.Philips.com:

You have direct access to the my.philips.com homepage through PMM. With your personal

Streamium account you can manage your Streamium devices and media content. It is also

possible to get detailed information about available Online Music Services

Drag and Drop Media content:

You can now also add your media content (Music, Pictures and Movies) by drag and drop it

from the desktop or any other folder into the PMM. The files will be added to the right

categories. It works like manual adding files.

Philips MC-i 200/250 support for Music:

The music content and playlists in PMM can also be played on a Philips MC-i 200/250. The

PMM is shown on the MC-i display with the active username that is logged on in windows.

(e.g. John Doe)

Playlists:

The supported playlist files are M3U and PLS. Playlists can be added from a menu in the

Music view or by drag and drop, with some exceptions:

• Drag and drop a single playlist, works. User is prompted for name of playlist to add

• Drag and drop multiple playlists, only one playlist will be added

• Drag and drop playlists and media content, playlists will be ignored and media content

will be added at all

Folders:

Generally, the behaviour of the folders will be similar to the folder/file management in

Windows file explorer with regards to drag and drop, add/remove/edit content and playlists.

Settings:

Settings will allow the user to specify and customize the application. For example, the watch

folders can be modified or you can rename the PMM Server to your Individual name. There

are also Network settings where you can activate and set your Proxy server/ port.

Furthermore, you will find information for firewall use (ports needed to be opened) and tab

called “General” where you can enable / disable the Quick Info feature.

Updates:

An update mechanism allows you to get updates of the application from a Philips server.

Help:

If you need any other detailed information on how PMM is working or what else can be done

with it you can access the PMM help. Different topics are listed by default and also a search

option is implemented.

Direct selection in lists:

If you have long lists with media content you now have the possibility to jump directly to the

wanted character. Fore example press in Music “d” on your keyboard, the cursor will jump to

the first song beginning with “d”. This also works if you want to add a watch folder. In the

Explorer window for the watch folders press “h” for example and cursor jumps to first folder

beginning with “h”.

WAV & VOB File support:

This PMM version also supports file extensions *.wav and *.vob.

Multiple folder/ file selection:

Select more folders with help of the “ctrl” or “shift” key like in the Windows Explorer. Keep

pressing “ctrl” and click in the watch folders selection window all folders you want to add.

The “shift” key is used to mark multiple files after each other. For example click the first file

beginning with “a”, press the shift key and hold it, now click the last file beginning with “a”.

All files beginning with “a” are now marked and will be added.

Improvement of Content deletion:

If you delete a watch folder, PMM also asks you now if the media content of this watch folder

should be removed from the right pane of the PMM window. If you click “yes” the list will be

erased (not deleted from hard disk drive, except when you selected this option), files will then

also be removed from playlists, picture albums and movie collections.

Shut down PMM, new option:

When you shut down PMM via the system tray icon you have the option to disable the

window that you will be prompted again. This option also can be enabled/ disabled via the

Settings/ Server menu: “Always shutdown in future without asking”

Import folders into playlists/ picture albums/ movie collections:

If you add a folder and want to add directly this content to a playlist/ picture album or movie

collection, checking a box in the “Add Files or Folders” menu can do this

Internal Picture Viewer:

PMM offers you an internal picture viewer; with this tool you can watch the pictures of your

media library. One double-click on a picture opens the file in the internal picture viewer,

another double-click closes the picture and returns back to thumbnail or list view, depending

where you have been before.

Parental containers for watch folders/ playlists/ picture albums and movie collections:

In the left pane you have parental containers for all watch folders in one container called

"Watch Folders", all playlists in a container called "Playlists", all picture albums in a

container called "Albums", and all movie collections in a folder called "Collections"

Nested Playlists/ Picture albums/ Movie collections:

You don’t only have the possibility to create Playlists/ Picture albums/ Movie collections in

the root directory of the single containers; you can also manage your composition in folders

and subfolders. If you have created a Folder, just right click on it and create a new Playlists/

Picture album/ Movie collection inside of it.

QuickInfo:

Find beside the Help icon (upper right) a new button called “QuickInfo”, clicking this button

will open a window that will give you a short overview of PMM functionalities, adding files,

supported media formats and firewall settings. You have the possibility to disable this button

in Settings/General.

Adding an Artist/ Album/ Genre directly in a playlist:

By right-clicking one of the sub containers in Artist/ Albums or Genres an additional Menu

will be shown to directly establish a playlist of this Artist/ Album or Genre. E.g. Playlist: Bon

Jovi/ These Days or Rock.

Known problems

If you set a proxy in PMM and confirm with "OK" the option "use automatic configuration

script" will be disabled in the Internet browser automatically. So proxy users may have

problems connecting the internal PMM browser to the Streamium website. You first have to

enable proxy in PMM and again reactivated the option in your Internet browser.

The shuffle function is not working in container “Watch Folders”.

The Philips SL50i can only work with the English version of PMM 3.2. An upgrade of SL50i

software will become available shortly that allows you to work with PMM 3.2 in any of the

languages supported.

When changing languages, PMM can ask you whether it should download the corresponding

help file. If you agree, it will inform you that it is upgrading PMM. This means that it will

download the help file and add this file to your installed version of PMM. It will not install a

new version of PMM.
