Please note: the 'Favourites' feature is not available on firmware v1
- this is only available from V1.0.1 and up (Open Beta included).The MED500X2 includes a 'Favourites' feature which is in essence a list of shortcuts to your favourite media folders.
This will make life much easier for those family members who may be challenged at finding their favourite media buried within the internal hard drive, on a hosted USB drive, or several sub-folders deep into a network share.
You may choose to use this feature as a means to organise your media into meaningful genre shortcuts, linking for example to 'Kids movies', 'Party music', 'Family photos', etc.
The Favourites list can be found on the HOME menu - the Favourites list can also be invoked by pressing the
BLUE button on the remote at any time.

Detailed steps: o Navigate to the folder you wish to add to the Favourites list;
o Press the MENU button on the remote;

You can continue navigating and adding more shortcuts to the list.
A customised image can be assigned to each Favourite as follows:

BLUE button on the remote;
