  • Page 58: Appendix

    7. Appendix 7. Appendix Trouble shooting Why can some WMA format songs on the digital player not be played? There are many different music formats for songs on the Internet and many of them are in WMA format. Some of these WMA format songs are subject to DRM (license) copyright protection, which may cause unauthorized copies of some songs to become unplayable.
  • Page 59 If you have WMA format songs with the corresponding license protection, you still cannot just copy the songs from your PC to the digital player. You need to open Windows Media Player first. From its menu select “document”, “open” and open all the WMA songs you want to copy (if all of them can be played, you can transfer them to your player).
  • Page 60 Having problems transferring files? Please make sure that the USB cable is properly connected to the player and the PC. Please check that there is enough memory available to accommodate the files that you wish to transfer. Lost data? Some data loss can be caused by an unstable power supply during the transfer process.
  • Page 61 Why can some files, which are smaller in size than the available space on the player, still not be transferred? The CMOS chip inside the player allocates 16KB or 32KB to one memory track. A one Byte file will take one track. Therefore some files are smaller than the available memory but still cannot be transferred to the player.
  • Page 62 Why I can only download a limited quantity of files into my player while there is plenty of space on it? The number of files you can store in the ROOT directory of a local disk largely depends on the length of file names.
