3. Using L.E.D. software
With the L.E.D. software, you can load MP3 files onto MultiMediaCards.
These files can either be downloaded from the Internet, or created by converting the music off your audio CDs. In order to create files from your audio CD’s, the music has to be read and stored on the hard disk of your computer in a PC compa- tible format. This can be done with the CD Ripper integrated in the L.E.D. software.
A further component of the software is the Encoder. The Encoder converts the data into MP3 files, which require about 1/12 the storage space of the original audio files (see section 3.2).
You can archive your MP3 files on the hard disk of your computer, compile them in the form of Playlists with the L.E.D. software, and load them onto MultiMediaCards (see 3.1).
Also included within the software is a Player/Decoder, which enables you to listen to music files on your PC. This makes it easier for you to choose the files that you want to store on your PC.
3.1. The Download/Play list window
Click the Windows Start button; select Programs in the menu, and then L.E.D. When the program has been opened, it is in the Download/Play list mode. In this mode, you will determine which files are to be copied to the MultiMediaCard, and also perform the download of the files to the MultiMediaCard.
