Transferring Photos Files to Your Lyra Recorder

You can transfer photo files to your Lyra Portable Multi-media Recorder using Windows Explorer.

If your Lyra Recorder isn’t already connected to your computer, connect it using the provided USB cable (go to page 14 for information on connecting the USB cable). Don’t disconnect the USB cable during Photos download. Doing so may corrupt system files or the files being downloaded. It is highly recommended that the Lyra Recorder be connected to the ROOT USB PORT (the main USB port) on the PC or a self powered USB hub.

From Windows Explorer, open the Lyra Recorder drive. Open the drive where the files/folders you want to transfer are located, and highlight them. Drag the files/folders to the associated folder on the Lyra Recorder drive.

Supported photo files (JPEG or JPG) must be stored in the PHOTOS system folder in order to be available for viewing on the device. Sub-folders may be created under the PHOTOS system folder for easy navigation and organization of your image files.

Note: You must stop the USB connection before disconnecting the USB cable (go to page 17 for more information on disconnecting the USB cable).

An SD/MMC memory card can also be used to transfer photo files. If an SD/MMC memory card is properly inserted, an additional drive is available through Windows Explorer to transfer content onto. Please ensure the correct drive is being used when transferring content from the device. Go to page 49 for more information on transferring files from the SD/MMC memory card.

When all files have been transferred to the Lyra Recorder from the PC, you MUST re-profile the contents to ensure all content is properly sorted and recognized on the Lyra Recorder. Eject the Lyra Recorder through the tray application (see page 17), then run the profiler. In the Setup menu, go to the Audio/Video menu and select Profile. Go to page 25 for more details on the profiler.

Notes: You can view photos directly from the SD/MMC memory card without having to transfer the content to the Lyra Recorder hard drive.
