Transferring Video Files to Lyra AV Jukebox
You can transfer video files to your Lyra AV Jukebox using Windows Explorer.
If your Lyra AV Jukebox isn’t already connected to your computer, connect it using the provided USB cable (go to page 10 for
information on connecting the USB cable). Don’t disconnect the USB cable during video download. Doing so may corrupt system files
or the files being downloaded. It is highly recommended that the Lyra AV Jukebox be connected to the ROOT USB PORT (the main
USB port) on the PC or a self powered USB hub.
From Windows Explorer, open the Lyra AV Jukebox drive. Open the drive where the files/folders you want to transfer are located, and
highlight them. Drag the files/folders to the VIDEO system folder on the Lyra AV Jukebox drive.
Helpful hint: You can also right click on your content in Windows Explorer and select Copy (or Ctrl + C). Then from
the VIDEO folder, right click and select Paste (or Ctrl + Y) to add the copied content.
Supported video files (MPEG4 in avi file format) must be stored in the VIDEO system folder in order to be available for playback on
the device. Sub-folders may be created under the VIDEO system folder for easy navigation and organization of your video content.
Note: You must stop the USB connection before disconnecting the USB cable (go to page 12 for more information
on disconnecting the USB cable).
A CompactFlash memory card can also be used to transfer video files. If a CompactFlash memory card is properly inserted, an
additional drive is available through Windows Explorer to transfer content onto. Please ensure the correct drive is being used when
transferring content from the device. Go to page 32 for more information on transferring files from the CompactFlash memory card.
