Why can't the TV CF Card's Autoscan
function detect a channel?
If Autoscan cannot pickup a channel, You can interrupt
Autoscan by tapping on the screen during scanning and then
use CH+ / CH- and then use the fine tune F++ / F-- to search
for a channel. If you still cannot find the channel, this
means the signal strength provided by the local TV stations
is too weak in the area. You will need to connect to an
external antenna to boost up the signal.
What handhelds are compatible with
the TV CF Card?
Please download the update list of compatible handhelds
from the product page.
Does the TV CF Card support VGA display
of the Toshiba e800?
The Toshiba e800 comes with user selectable Pocket PC standard
of QVGA (320 x 240) as well as full VGA resolution of 640x480.
However, the TV CF Card can only support the Toshiba in
QVGA 320 x 240. This means that you can only get the EOps
TV program in full screen view in 320 x 240. If you have
setup the Toshiba e800 in VGA mode, the TV CF Card EOps
TV program would be shown on the top left hand corner of
the screen and occupies only a quarter of the screen.
How long can I watch TV on the Pocket
PC with the TV CF Card?
You can generally watch up to 2.5 hours of TV using the
TV CF Card with 4 new AAA alkaline batteries. But the actual
performance depends on the Pocket PC model. For all the
Pocket PCs that we have tested, the operation life is between
1.5 hours and 2.5 hours, depending on the capacity of the
Pocket PC's internal battery.
The reason is that the TV CF Card gets its power from both
the 4AAA batteries and the Pocket PC. The 4 AAA batteries
of the TV CF card is used solely to power the analog TV
tuner module while the internal battery of the Pocket PC
powers the communication in the CF slot between the TV CF
Card and the Pocket PC.
For other Pocket PC models with lower capacity battery,
the operation time will be lowered. Please note that although
the power the TV CF Card obtained from the CF slot of the
Pocket PC is small, a lot of battery power is required to
power the LCD screen for the display of video.
When we designed the power circuit of the TV CF Card, we
try to maximize the operation life taking into consideration
the power capacity from the 4 AAA batteries and the power
capacity of a range of Pocket PCs.
Why can I still use AV-IN to watch
video from a connected portable DVD player when there are
no batteries in the TV CF Card?
If there is no power in the 4 AAA batteries of the TV CF
Card, you can still use the AV-IN to connect to your portable
DV D player and use the Pocket PC screen as monitor. The
reason is that the internal battery of the Pocket PC supplies
the CF slot communication as well as the video digitizing
circuit and the audio output for the AV-IN.
Why does a Pocket PC turn off after
a few minutes of use with the TV CF Card?
The Pocket PC operating system is defaulted to turn off
the device and screen light if not used for a period of
time. To prevent disruption of watching video with the TV
CF Card, please disabled these functions in the settings
setup of the Pocket PC (please refer to your Pocket PC's
operating manual).
Why is there no sound from the TV
CF Card?
Perhaps you might have pushed the volume control and activated
mute. In the case, you will see a message ¡§Mute¡¨ on the
top of the screen in portrait mode. There is no Mute indicator
in landscape mode.
Moreover, in the case of the TV CF Card P-01 (PAL version),
you might have selected the wrong PAL sound system. The
P-01 supports PAL-B/G, PAL-I and PAL D/K sound system. You
will need to tap ¡§PAL Sound¡¨ button to select the correct
PAL sound system in your country in order to get the audio.
How do I improve the picture quality
of the TV CF Card?
Regarding the quality of the output, it depends on the
screen of your Pocket PC. But most Pocket PC have transflective
TFT LCD screen which means the picture quality is much better
than passive STN LCD screen normally used on handheld TV.
Moreover, Pocket PC with faster processor can achieve higher
frame rate. The picture can be displayed in both portrait
and landscape mode at up to 30 frames per second. The actual
frame rate depends on the bandwidth of the actual CF slot
which varies with different Pocket PC models. Because there
is a bandwidth constraint in the CF slot, we have implemented
the QUALITY button such that the user can customize between
high frame rate with lower resolution (e.g. for action movie,
sports events) or high resolution with lower frame rate
(e.g. for news / stock prices).
For the US version TV CF Card N-01,
if the price is in Hong Kong dollars from your online shop,
how do I know what is charged to my credit card? Also what
is the delivery time?
We are a Hong Kong based company thus our e-commerce engine
is set to invoice only in Hong Kong dollar (HKD). Hong Kong
dollar is pegged (set) to the US dollar at 1 US dollar to
7.8 Hong Kong dollar without much foreign exchange movement.
Your credit card will be charged around USD 129 plus the
shipping cost.
Orders from our online shop will be processed within 2-3
working days if the product is in stock. We ship our goods
from Hong Kong. The approximate date your product will arrive
depends on your international shipping destination. The
total delivery time is expected to be 5-7 working days,
being the sum of the order processing time of 2-3 working
days and the shipping time of 3-4 working days. All goods
purchased from our online shop will be shipped via courier
services (DHL). The standard terms and conditions of carriage
of the courier services will be applied. After we shipped
out your product, we will email to you an air waybill number
for tracking on the courier service's website (www.dhl.com).
When I use your online shop, I never
saw the security icon and I did not know if the site was
secure. Can you advise in this regard?
After you pressed "checkout", the web-pages onwards
are actually secured, especially when you entered your credit
card details. You can right click the page, and click "properties",
then you will see "SSL 3.0, RC4 with 128 bit encryption
(High); RSA with 1024 bit exchange".
Please could you explain why it is
not compatible with IPAQ 3800 / 3900 but compatible with
newer handhelds?
While we try to make our CF TV card compatible with as
many of the current range of Pocket PCs as possible, therein
does lie some difficulty that prevents us from being 'universally'
compatible. The IPAQ 3800 and 3900, popular models indeed,
are the ones that we cannot overcome technically. The reason
is that the high speed digitized video signal from our TV
CF Card becomes unstable while passing through the interface
of the IPAQ 3800 and 3900.
