Operation
The VP70XD rarely needs an interaction via
the remote. The most common menu chang-
es are switching from 720p to 1080p, chang-
ing the setting to play background music dur-
ing a photo slide show and changing photo
slide show delay and transition type. All other
settings are pre-set and rarely get accessed.
Play“only” video, audio or photo les
When you press the “Home”button on the re-
mote, the screen to the right (1) will appear.
The menu options are... Audio (2), Video (3),
Photo (4) and Settings (5). If you wish to man-
ually select a le to play, use one of these op-
tions to select your desired le using the ar-
row keys and“SELECT” button on the remote.
If you wish to set up the player to only play a
specic le type, you simply need to change
the “Auto Play” option from “Mix” (6) (mean-
ing play all le types) to Video only, Audio
only or Photo (7) only (there are 2 playback
options - “In Order” or “Random” ).
Setting up a photo slide show
By default if you load photos onto your SD/
USB the player will auto start and rotate
through all the pictures every 5 seconds us-
ing “Cross Dissolve” Transition. If you wish to
add background music, you must rst change
the“Auto Play”option to“Photo” (7), and then
turn on“Background Music”(8). The delay be-
tween photos can be changed from 1 second
to 5 minutes using the “Play Interval” option
(9). There are also 14 photo transitions avail-
able under the “Photo Transition” menu op-
tion (10).
Video output mode
When using HDMI you can change your reso-
lution size from 720p to 1080p depending on
what your TV is capable of. Note: Some TV’s

tion, in these cases use the “alternate” selec-

Video encoding tips
The VP70XD will play a majority of video
and audio codecs. The only limitation is the
bit rate of the le. The VP70XD is capable of
playing up to 20Mbps (Blu-Ray DVD quality).
Most customers are using video les well un-
der 20Mbps but if the VP70XD is not playing
properly, load the video on any computer
(10)
(11)
and play it. Every video program should have an option for “Video Properties”. You can view the bit rate
and determine if it is within range. If the video is out of range, it will need to be re-encoded using a num-
ber of free or low cost video converters. When re-encoding, try to choose h.264 for a video codec and a
bit rate under 20Mbps.
Troubleshooting tips
When connecting the VP70XD to a TV or monitor you should see either your looping content or the
Videotel “Splash Screen” (1). If you get a black, blue or pixelated screen, remove the SD and USB. If you
see the Videotel“Splash Screen”there is an issue with your content. If you still do not see an image, press
the HDMI, AV or VGA button on the remote and switch to the type of connection you are using. Your TV’s
HDMI input may not be compatible with the output setting of the VP70XD. Simply press and release the
HDMI button on the VP70XD remote several times to switch between the various options (720P - Default,
720P - Alternate, 1080P - Default, 1080p - Alternate, 1080P-24Hz, 1080i - Default and 1080i - Alternate).
1080p Default or Alternate are the most common settings for newer TVs.
