NOOK Video
TM
NOOK Video™ is a streaming and download service that allows you to rent movies and purchase movies and TV shows for viewing on your NOOK. NOOK Video offers a wide variety of popular movies and TV shows.
NOOK Video supports both streaming and downloading content. When you purchase or rent a movie, you need to select how you will access it: streaming or downloading. Unlike books and periodicals, videos do not download automatically when purchased.
Streaming means that the content is delivered over an active Wi-Fi connection. You must be connected to a Wi-Fi Internet connection to watch streamed content. Streaming videos does not require any storage on your NOOK.
Note: When streaming content, it’s best to have to a strong Wi-Fi connection.
Download Videos
Downloading means that you transfer the NOOK Video content over a Wi-Fi connection to your NOOK just as you download other content like books and magazines. Once you have downloaded a NOOK Video, you can watch it any time regardless of whether or not your NOOK is connected to Wi-Fi (though rented content must be watched within the rental period, as described below). Unlike streamed videos, downloaded videos do consume storage on your NOOK.
To configure your NOOK to download video content to an SD card, rather than to internal storage:
1. From a Home screen, tap NOOKSettings.
2. Tap Video.
3. Tap Video Download Location to enable.
Note: Downloading videos may take some time. The speed of the download will depend on the length of the video and the bandwidth of your Wi-Fi network. If you are planning to download a movie to watch it offline (for example, in a location without a Wi-Fi network, such as in a car or on a plane), we recommend that you connect your NOOK to a power source and begin downloading the movie as soon as you have purchased or rented it.
Apps >
Rent Movies
You can rent movies on your NOOK.
Once you rent an item, you have 30 days to begin watching it.
Once you start watching it, you have 24 hours to finish watching it before the rental expires. You can watch the item as many times as you like within that 24-hour period.
You can stream an item to begin watching it right away, or you can download an item to begin watching it within the 30-day rental period.
If you plan to download many videos, you should consider purchasing a microSD card to give your NOOK extra storage.
NOOK NOOK Video
Note: You may download a rented movie to only one device during the rental period, so be sure to download only on the device on which you intend to watch the movie. In contrast, you may stream movies on all authorized NOOK devices during the rental period. You may authorize up to five devices through your NOOK account.

Sideloading Files

Sideloading means transferring files from your personal computer to your NOOK over the USB cable.
Note: If your personal computer is a Mac, you will need to install a free software program, Android File Transfer (AFT), on your computer before you can transfer files to and from your NOOK. AFT is available here: https://www.android.com/filetransfer/. If your computer is a PC, it will automatically detect your NOOK and install the software drivers it needs, if they are not already installed.
To sideload content:
1. Connect your NOOK’s USB cable to a USB port on your computer.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to your device’s Charger/Accessory Port on the bottom edge of your NOOK.
3. Select the files you want to transfer from your computer, then drag and drop them from your computer to the My Files subfolder on your NOOK.
4. Once you finish sideloading the files you want to transfer, disconnect your NOOK from your computer by using your computer’s file system to eject your NOOK as if you are ejecting a disk. Disconnect the USB cable.
5. To view your personal files once you have copied them to the My Files folder, open your NOOK Library on your device and scroll down to the My Files section of your Library.
Note: To view the amount of storage available on your NOOK, open the Settings app, tap the General tab, and tap Storage in the menu on theleft.
Note: You can also transfer files to your NOOK using Dropbox or any other file-sharing app you have installed on your device.
Once you have connected your NOOK to your computer, you will be able to access your NOOK’s storage as though it were another drive connected to your computer. The My Files subfolder folder in the NOOK folder is for personal files you have not purchased through the NOOK Store. For example, if you have created PDFs on your computer and want to view them on your NOOK, you can drag them to the My Files folder.
