The THOMSON Lyra player works with your computer to let you play your favorite
music from files recorded on removable CompactFlash cards. The player plays files
TM
encoded with the popular MP3, Windows Media Audio and RealNetworks** G2
audio formats and may allow for future upgrades of some alternative audio
compression formats.
Because the player has no moving parts, the audio can be played back virtually
anywhere without skipping.
You can download MP3, Windows Media and G2 encoded music files from several
Internet sites to your computer hard drive or record your favorite CD using the
software supplied.
Some of the Internet sites you may want to explore are:

1. RealAudio is RealNetworks’
audio format. This format saves
your music as RealAudio (.rmx)
secure or RealAudio unsecured
(.rmj) files. Compression levels
available are (96, 64, and 44
Stereo, and 32 Kbps Mono).
96kbps Stereo has the best quality
sound, but uses the most disk
space.
Turn this feature off if you own two
computers and exchange files
between them.
3. Click OK.
2. MP3 Audio is MPEG layer 3
Audio available at multiple
compression levels from 32 kbps
mono to 320 kbps stereo. 320
kbps has the best quality sound,
but uses the most disk space. We
recommend using 128 kbps.
