How do I connect the MT852B to my TV?

Connect the device to your TV using an HDMI cable (not included). Plug one end into the HDMI port of the media player and the other into an available HDMI input on your TV. Then select the corresponding HDMI input on your TV using the remote.

Why is there no sound when playing a video?

First, check that the volume on your TV and the media player is turned up. Ensure the HDMI cable is securely connected. If using the headphone jack, make sure nothing is plugged in. Also, verify the audio format is supported (e.g., AC3 may not be supported). Try a different video file.

Can I use a USB hub to connect multiple drives?

No, the MT852B does not support USB hubs. Only one USB device or SD card can be used at a time. To switch, unplug the current device and insert the other.

How do I update the firmware?

Firmware updates are available on the GPX support website. Download the update file to a USB flash drive (FAT32), insert it into the media player, go to Setup > Firmware Update in the menu, and follow on-screen instructions. Do not power off during update.

The remote control is not working. What should I do?

First, check the batteries (replace if needed). Make sure there are no obstacles between the remote and the media player. Point the remote directly at the front panel. If still not working, try resetting the player by unplugging it for 30 seconds.

Does this media player support subtitles?

Yes, it supports external subtitle files in SRT format. Place the subtitle file in the same folder as the video file, with the same name (e.g., movie.mp4 and movie.srt). Enable subtitles via the remote's subtitle button.

The device is not powering on. What can I do?

Ensure the USB power cable is securely connected to a power source (USB wall adapter or TV USB port). Try a different power adapter (5V/1A minimum). If using a TV USB port, ensure the TV is on. If still no power, contact GPX support.

Can I use this device to stream from Netflix or other apps?

No, the GPX MT852B is a local media player and does not have internet connectivity or app support. It only plays media files from USB drives or SD cards.

How do I clean the device?

Unplug the device before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use any liquids, abrasive cleaners, or spray directly onto the device. Avoid getting moisture into any openings.
