Software Setup
Install software in your computer (Windows XP and 2000 support only)
The Audio/Video Management CD that came with your Lyra Portable Multi-media Recorder contains the software components that you will need to
make your Lyra Recorder work properly. These components do the following:
• View the User’s Guide and documentation for the Lyra Recorder
• Install and use the Lyra DJ software to automatically create playlists on your Lyra Recorder
• Install and use the Divx software to create and convert video files for viewing on your Lyra Recorder
• Install and use the Yahoo! Music Engine™ software to organize your music collection and transfer the music to your Lyra Recorder
• Download the Audible Manager Software and configure it to transfer audio files to your Lyra Recorder
• The Yahoo! Music Engine software compresses audio files (from music CDs) to mp3 or many other popular formats so you can play them on
your Lyra Portable Multi-media Recorder. The Yahoo! Music Engine software also enables you to download files from the internet that are already
compressed and then transfer those files to your Lyra Recorder (or play the music on your computer).
