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 certied 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.
