The shorter way of doing it on the Olympus DS-50 and a few other players is to copy and paste the music files into the folder which you can access via my computer or Windows Explorer. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Patrick Davis" <pdavis07@xxxxxxxxx>

Make a playlist of your MP3s, which you can do by going through Windows Media Player's playlist editor, or by finding the files through Explorer, going into the context menu, and selecting the "Add to Windows Media Player" option. This will add the file to the playlist, which will cause WMP to start up. Once you are done with your playlist, do the following. Tab through the Windows Media Player options until you get to "Psync Menu." Hit the spacebar, which brings up the menu. Down arrow to the option which says, "Psync 'now playing' to DVR," the 'now playing' referring to the playlist you have just created. Hit enter on it, and the process should start. WMP doesn't tell you when the process is completed, or maybe I just haven't figured it out. But, the psync shouldn't take more than a few minutes max. Also, the "Psync to DVR" option can also be executed within the menu by pressing Y. I'm not sure what digital recorder you have, but this should hopefully work for you. It took me a little while to figure it out, and there may be a shorter way of doing it that I'm not aware of. Sorry for the lengthy instructions, and I hope you didn't find them too confusing. Good luck.
