The AV 500 is designed to be the companion to your home entertainment system.

By connecting to a computer, you get the advantage of being able to download legal music and video content from the Internet. [. . . ] The diagram below illustrates the situation.

This will remove the part of the file BEFORE the desired segment. · Now set a Cut Out point (21:05 in our example. Please note: As you have cut part of the file, this position will actually be earlier in the file now). The file will be saved with the word "edit" appended to the file name in the same folder as the original. · If you do not want to save your modifications, click the STOP/ESC button and select OK. Highlight the file to edit and select the File Management action icon. Only files which have been created with the AV 500 recording function will show Edit in the file menu. Files created from CDs or downloaded cannot be edited. Once you enter the edit mode, the audio file will play in a continuous loop so that you will be able to hear the changes to the edit as you make them. Use the fast-reverse and fast-forward buttons (LEFT/RIGHT buttons) to locate the points you want the new file to start and end. These are the Cut In and Cut Out points. Once you have set these points, you can save the edit. In this example, a new file REC0001_Edit will be made. You will notice that your Cut In and Cut Out times are marked just below the file name. 56 57 14 14 MUSIC ­ Using iTunesTM with your AV 500 The easiest way to transfer music files between a Macintosh® computer and your AV 500 is to use the Macintosh FinderTM to drag and drop the files to and from your Macintosh®. However, for Macintosh® users who do want to use the AV 500 with iTunes®, ARCHOSTM has developed a special i-Tunes® plug-in. You will find it in the folder /Data/i-Tunes Plug-in on the AV 500 hard drive or at the ARCHOSTM website. In this folder you will find a plug-in for Mac OS 9. x and another folder for Mac OS 10. x. You will also find a JPEG image illustrating where you need to copy the plug-in to. Once this is done, iTunesTM will recognize the AV 500 as a `Device'.
