Connecting Lyra AV Jukebox to the Computer
Connect the Lyra AV Jukebox to your computer with the mini USB cable provided. Turn on the unit by pressing the ON/
OFF button. The Lyra AV Jukebox will appear as a Removable Disk drive letter in My Computer (Windows Explorer).
If a CompactFlash memory card is properly inserted, an additional drive letter may be accessed as a Removable Disk drive
letter through Windows Explorer as well. The Lyra AV Jukebox functions as a high-speed CompactFlash card reader as
well.
For information on disconnecting the USB cable, go to the end of the chapter.
Notes: It might take several seconds for the device (the Lyra AV Jukebox) to be detected, especially in
Windows 2000/XP. Click Refresh in My Computer or Explorer to make sure the device has been detected.
The Lyra AV Jukebox is capable of transferring files at high-speed mode of USB 2.0. This is up to 40 times
faster than USB 1.1. If USB 2.0 port is available on your computer, use it to connect to your Lyra AV
Jukebox. The Lyra AV Jukebox is still backward compatible with the older USB 1.1 ports. However, you
won’t be able to take full advantage of the potential speed increase.
Lyra Jukebox System Applications
Profile Device Contents (Audio only)
New audio files that are transferred to your Lyra AV Jukebox using Windows Explorer (drag and drop) will not appear in
the Audio Navigation Menus until you profile the contents. If MusicMatch Jukebox was used to transfer files, you don’t
need to profile content as profiling is done automatically.
1. Connect your Lyra AV Jukebox to the computer using the provided USB cable if it is not already connected.
2. After all audio files have been transferred to the device, right click on the Lyra icon in the
System tray (bottom right hand corner of the computer screen).
3. Select the Profile Device Contents... option to start profiling and sorting contents.
Note: If more than one Lyra AV Jukebox is connected to your computer, you will be
prompted to select the corresponding drive you want to profile.
4. Click Done on the progress screen when profiling is complete.
Note: Video and Photos content will appear in the Navigation menus based on the
folder/file structures in the VIDEO and PHOTOS system folder. Profiling of Video and
Photos content is not necessary.
When your Lyra AV Jukebox isn’t connected to a computer, you can profile Audio
contents from the Audio menu, and select Profile Contents. Go to page 25 for more
information.
