iRecord is a Personal Media Recorder that records video and audio data onto USB mass storage devices, including iPod® and PSP®(PlayStation®Portable). Simply connect the iRecord device to any analog video or audio source to record¹ video or audio contents. The digitally recorded files can be immediately played back on your iPod, PSP® or any other USB mass storage device that plays audio files as MP3 or video files as MP4. The recorded contents can also be taken to other players supporting H.264 video and AAC audio in MP4 file format.

    iRecord in 4 easy steps  
     
 

 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
     
 

Step 1 – Connect to an A/V source: Connect your iRecord device to the output jacks of your video or audio source. When available, use the S-Video connector (for better video quality) instead of the RCA connector for video. If both S-Video and RCA video cables are connected then system will automatically use S-Video as video input source. The A/V source² can be any device including TV, DVD player, VCR, PVR/DVR (e.g. TiVo®), cable box, satellite TV box, camcorders or other devices.

Step 2 - Power on iRecord: Provide 5V DC power to iRecord. Press and hold the POWER button of iRecord for around 3 seconds. When the device is powered on, the power LED will be illuminated. After around 10 seconds the status LED will also illuminate orange.

 
   
   
     
 

 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
     
 

Step 3 - Connect iPod®, PSP® or Storage Device :  Connect your iPod, PSP® with Memory Stick (MS) or any USB 2.0 mass storage device to iRecord’s USB port. Once the USB device is recognized the status LED will turn solid green to indicate that iRecord is ready to record. This typically takes between 5 to 30 seconds.

 
   
   
   
     
 

 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
     
 

Step 4 - Record: To start recording, check that status LED is solid green. Press the RECORD button. The status LED will momentarily turn orange, and then begin flashing. The status LED will blink red to indicate that iRecord is recording video, or it will blink orange to indicate that iRecord is recording audio only.

To stop recording, simply press the RECORD button again. The status LED will momentarily turn orange and then return to green, indicating that iRecord is ready to record again. Do not remove your iPod, PSP® or USB storage device until the status LED has returned to solid green. You may power off iRecord once you are finished with recording.

 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   

 

 

 
 
     
     
 

Note :

 
 

1) To save power the system shuts itself OFF automatically if no recording activity is detected for longer than 10 minutes. The system has to be switched ON again manually by pressing the POWER button.

 
   
   
 

2) While recording is in progress the POWER switch is disabled. This is to ensure that recording does not get interrupted, accidentally.

Where are My Recorded Contents :

 
 

The iRecord stores the files onto iPod in Lists with matching file types. Video recordings are stored in Videos -->Movies List. Audio recordings are stored in Music -->Songs List. The file names will be listed as iRecord_mm/dd/yy hh:mm where mm/dd/yy represents the date and hh:mm represents the time of recording.

In case of PSP® the recorded audio and video contents appear in Music and Video menu of PSP® respectively, from where these can be played back.  The video files are stored in MP_ROOT-->100ANV01 folder and audio files are stored in PSP-->Music folder on the Memory Stick. The video files are named as MAQxxxxx.MP4 and audio files are named as IRECxxxx.MP3, where xxxx represents the sequence number of the recording.

 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
 

For USB mass storage devices, all files will be saved in the top level folder. The file names will be in the form of iRecxxxx.MP4 for video and iRecxxxx.MP3 for audio files, where the xxxx represents the sequence number of the recording, starting with 0001.

 
   
   
 

For audio only recordings of music CD's a separate MP3 file is created for each track.
