Rotate Your Photos
The power is now in the palm of your hand! With this latest server release, your photos will automatically have the correct orientation, if your camera supports a feature known as EXIF. If it does not, you can rotate photos using your remote control. While viewing a photo, simply pressing the ENTER key will cycle your photo through three alternate orientations: 90° clockwise, 90° counterclockwise, and a 180° flip.  

The following diagrams show the three scenarios:

Original View	Key Presses	Desired Result
Turned on its left	Press ENTER once	90° clockwise
Turned on its right	Press ENTER twice	90° counter-clockwise
Turned upside-down...	Press ENTER three times	180° vertical flip

New Photo Menu

When viewing your photos, hit the MENU key and you wil notice a new section called 'Options'.

Fill Screen
Enjoy your photos without the black bars along the top or sides.  With 'Fill Screen', your photo library is automatically zoomed to fill the screen perfectly without changing the aspect ratio (images will appear clipped).  you can toggle this option off to return to standard viewing mode.

Save Zoom
Once you have zoomed into your favorite part of a photo, you can select 'Save Zoom' to preserve the view just the way you like.  Choose 'Reset Zoom' to restore the photo to its original state.







Option to Stack or Unstack

Stacking combines your files (videos, music, and photos) into "stacks" based on filenames appended with numbers.  Think of a stack as a virtual folder.






For example, a movie that you have in two separate files would be inserted into one stack:

Unstacked View	Stacked View
Pumpkin's Revenge 001 Pumpkin's Revenge 002 Rambo 8 Zoo Vacation	+Pumpkin's Revenge Rambo 8 Zoo Vacation

Keep an eye out for these new icons indicating what has been stacked:

Stacks Icon for Files	Stacks Icon for Playlists

Audio/Video Sync Option

Have you ever had a video where the audio seems to be a little off from the video's playback?  Many times, this can be a problem with the way the video was encoded, but now, Connected lets you correct this issue on-the-fly without needing to re-encode the entire video.

While watching a video, hit the MENU button, and y ou should see an advanced nenu.  Select 'Adjust A/V Sync' and use the left and right arrows of your remote control to slide the audio forward and backward.  Once the video looks and sounds just right, you can hit the MENU button again to make the overlay disappear, and enjoy your newly synchronized video!
