Once the conversion tool is open, the first step in actually converting and loading
the file is to select the file you wish to convert. Locate the “Input File” line towards
the top of the window, and select the “Add file” button
and use the file
selection window to select the file you want to convert and load. The second step
is to select the location you want the converted file saved . Locate the “Output
File” line immediately below the “Input File” line and select the “Video Path”
button
and use the “browse for folder” window to select the save location. As
this conversion tool is already calibrated to convert your files for optimal quality,
you simply need to select the “Begin” button
and the player will convert the
file for you.
Please note that if the player is connected to your computer when you open this
tool, you will see an additional window to the right of the main window. This is the
media player window.
Please note that the window will display the drive letter
assigned to your player; if you have multiple players
connected, it will have an option for each drive. Below the drive letters is a pie
chart showing the amount of storage space available and the amount used.
There is also a check box giving you the option to automatically copy the video
file to your drive. Selecting this will save you a step in loading your video files,
as the converter will save a copy of the converted file to your computer, and
then automatically load it on to the player as well!
Once the file has finished converting and loading on to your player, follow the
“Safely Remove Hardware” instructions outlined above, and enjoy your video.
If you receive an error when attempting to convert a video file, then you likely
lack the proper video codecs on your computer. There are several large codec
packs which will contain the majority of the common video codecs, such as the
K-Lite Mega codec pack, and the Storm codec pack. We recommend
downloading them from a trusted source and installing them and attempting to
convert the files then.
