Copying and Playing MP3 Files:
To play music on your 70-HD Player you can simply copy the files directly onto a
memory card that is inserted into the player.
* Connect the camera to the computer using the USB cable as described on
page 20. The camera's memory or a memory card on the camera will mount as a drive on your computer.
* Once it is connected you can copy files onto the player by simply dragging
and dropping them onto the window for the player. You may also use the BlazeVideo Magic Software to covert and copy files for playback on your
70-HD Player. * After the files have been copied disconnect the camera from the computer. * Turn on the camera and go to the Music Player from the main menu to
playback the files. The 70-HD Player will play all "standard MP3 files" (non-rights protected music).
There are other music file formats that are available on other sites that will
not play such as .WMA and other formats. If you have music in a format
other than .MP3 you will need to convert it with the BlazeVideo Magic
Software. Please refer to the User Manual provided on the CD ROM for
instructions on converting file types
If you purchase Music from the Apple iTunes® store it will not be recognized since
Apple® will only allow their files to be played on iPods®. There are also
other sites that when you download it will set privacy restrictions that will not
allow it to play on some players or only on the computer you download it on.
There many sites that you can purchase and download standard MP3 files
that can be played directly on the 70-HD player. Make certain you are
downloading a “STANDARD.MP3” file that is not limited for playback on your
computer only or certain MP3 Players.
NOTE: Download and use 3rd party software and enter web sites at your
own risk. Spectare Products is not responsible for any damage caused by
the use of software provided by other companies.
