CREATING COMPATIBLE VIDEO FILES WITH YOUR COMPUTER
If some of your videos don’t play on your ARCHOS
device,
you may need to transcode them to a compatible format.
The easiest way to do this is by using Windows Media

Player 10 to transfer videos 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.
