CREATING CoMpATIbLE VIdEo fILES WITH yoUR CoMpUTER
If some of your videos don’t play on your ARCHOS, you may need to transcode them
to a compatible format:
The easiest way to do this is by using Windows Media® Player 10 or higher to
transfer videos to your ARCHOS. Windows Media® Player will automatically con-
vert most formats to the WMV format that your device can play.
See your Windows Media
®
Player help instructions for more information.
If you don’t want to use Windows Media® Player, a search on the Internet should
allow you to find suitable utility programs to do this job.
If you would like to simply copy and paste DVD video files onto your ARCHOS
without converting them to WMV format, you can purchase the Cinema plug-
in from the ARCHOS website (www.archos.com). The same is also true for video
podcasts in the H-264 format. In this case, purchase the Video Podcast plug-in.
1.5 reCOrding VideO
With the optional DVR Station or DVR Travel Adapter (available at
www.archos.com), your ARCHOS will be able to record video from
most any standard video source.
