Converting video files to SMV format

OPERATING WITH A COMPUTER ___________

The player only supports video files in SMV format. However, you can convert video files to SMV from other formats (MPG, MP4, DVD, Quick time, Real player, AVI, WMV) on the CD ROM provided, using the Transcoder Software “video2smv.exe”.

1To open the folder, double-click on »video2smv.exe«.

2Double-click on the »video2smv.exe« program.

3To select the files you want to convert, click on »Add«. You can also adjust the size and quality of the files. The player's picture resolution is 128 x 160 pixels. Select a smaller size. The fundamental rule applies: the higher the quality, the larger the file and the higher the quality, the better the picture.

4Select the folder where you want to store the converted files, by clicking on »Set«.

5Start converting by clicking on »Convert«.

–A progress bar shows the conversion status. Once this has finished, you can transfer the new SMV files to the player.

Disconnecting from the computer

If there is no data transfer in progress, you can disconnect the player from the computer.

Before you disconnect the player's cable connection to the computer, you must remove the player from the Windows desktop by following the Windows instruc- tions for “Removing hardware”.

Note:

Do not disconnect the player from the computer while a data transfer is in progress. This can damage the data irreparably.

1Double-click on the symbol for removing hardware.

– The “Remove hardware” window appears.

2To continue, follow the instructions on the screen.

Note:

The circuits of the player and the computer can be seriously damaged if you do not follow the instructions for Windows ME / 2000 / XP.
