Rescanning a hard disk drive (Rescan HDD)
You can forcibly match the content of a hard disk drive and the content displayed on the
screen of the HDD AUDIO PLAYER by rescanning the hard disk drive.
For example, if the analysis of music files is interrupted by an unexpected reason such as a
sudden power outage, a mismatch may occur between the content displayed on the screen
of the HDD AUDIO PLAYER and the actual content stored in the external hard disk drive. In
this case, rescan the hard disk drive to correct the difference between the content displayed
on the screen and the current database of the hard disk drive.
1. Select [Settings] - [HDD Settings] in the Home screen.

drive to the HDD AUDIO PLAYER again, perform [Rescan External HDD (differing
items)]. Rescanning for differing items keeps music information, playlist information, the
