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 les 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 certied PlaysForSure
device. This means that when-
ever you download a protected video or music le 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 nd suitable utility programs to do this job.
