1.4 Putting videos onto your ARCHOS™ device
There are two main methods to transfer your own videos onto the ARCHOS™:
•Synchronize your videos with Windows Media® Player 10
®This method requires your ARCHOS™’s USB connection to operate in ‘Windows Media Device’ mode (see: System Settings). Windows Media® Player 10 will copy the videos you have selected directly in the Video folder of the ARCHOS™.
•Copy and Paste your video files from your computer into the Video folder of your ARCHOS™ (see: Computer Connection for details on how to connect your ARCHOS™ device to your computer).
PlaysForSure™ Videos & Protected Content
Your ARCHOS™ is a certified PlaysForSure™ device. This means that when- ever you download a protected video or music file from an Internet plat- form bearing the PlaysForSure™ logo, you can be sure that it will play on your ARCHOS™ device.
Creating Compatible Video Files with Your Computer
If some of your videos don’t play on your ARCHOS™ device, you may need to trans- code them to a compatible format.
•The easiest way to do this is by using Windows Media® Player 10 to transfer vid- eos to your ARCHOS™ in ‘Windows Media Device’ mode. Windows Media® Player 10 will automatically convert most formats to the WMV format that your device can play.
•If you don’t want to use Windows Media® Player 10, a search on the Internet should allow you to find suitable utility programs to do this job.
