    Hi y'all. I just bought a Philips DVP5982 dvd player, and i love it. One thing though, the menu for USB drives don't look so good. I mean, all the files and folders are shown, but the titles of movies are shorten; for instance, if the movie title was "Happy Holiday", then what you'll see is just "Happy~" ....so i'm hoping that some of you might know a way to fix this. I looked in the user's instr. but didn't find any solutions to make all the titles to appear the way they should be. Please help, thanks

    There's nothing you can do about munged filenames on USB drives. This is because Microsoft has patents regarding long filenames on FAT partitions and nobody seems to be willing to pay the licensing fees.
