Upload SD Card Content

The PVM is capable of displaying JPEG images or AVI video files from an SD Card. Before

loading files onto the SD Card, you MUST format the card to FAT-32. Failure to format the

SD Card may result in a black screen showing instead of the desired image or video.

The preferred JPEG image size is 1024 x 768. Load files directly onto the card. Do not place

files into folders. Skip to step 6 below for using JPEG images.

The preferred video format for Video is AVI with a maximum resolution size of 720 x 540. If

you already have a supported video, simply load it onto the SD Card.

To convert an unsupported video to the correct AVI format, follow the procedure below:

1. Download VLC

Download, install, & open the free program VLC. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html

2. Convert

From the File menu select Convert/Stream.

3. Drop Media

Drag/Drop the desired video into the box that says "Drop Media Here".

4. Choose Profile

Under Choose Profile, Click the Customize button. Select AVI under the

Encapsulation menu.

Click the Video codec tab, under the Codec dropdown, select DIVX 3.

In the Resolution field, enter 720 for width, and 540 for height.

Note: 640x480 will also work. (The Bitrate and Frame Rate should automatically

populate based on the quality of the original video).

Click Apply.

5. Choose Destination

Under Choose Destination, click Save File As > Browse to select the SD Card in which you

would like to save the file to. (Load files directly onto the card. Do not place files into

folders). Click Save when the progress bar has completed loading.

6. Insert Card into PVM

Insert the SD Card into the PVM with the contacts facing outward

(see image on right). Push the card down until it clicks into place.

7. Power Cycle

Power cycle the unit by unplugging the power cord, or pressing the

power button on the remote control.

Note: When an SD Card is inserted , you MUST power cycle the unit! Not doing so, may

result in corrupted SD Card which can effect PVM operation. Press power button on

remote control, or remove and replace power cord to power cycle.

8. Set Viewing Options

In the PVM's OSD menu, under Display, make sure the image mode is set to a mode which

can display SD Card content.

Note: If using an Apple Computer, you will not be able to preview an AVI file.

Note: The SD Card player is not High Definition.

Note: If the video is not formatted/sized correctly (too large), the VOV window will display

a default blue or black screen.
