I misread the date you purchased your Archos i for some STUPID reason thought it was September 2010 not 2009 i wouldn't have recommened contacting QVC as i know myself the warranty would have run out by that time and they wouldn't be able to help.....Sorry for my stupidness holmesy i g...

I know you say that you don't want to lose your Archos due to the problem that you are having with the screen but you could email QVC customer services and see what help they can offer you.I bought an Archos 2 Vision 8gb mp3 player in April last year and by the June the player had completely died on...

You have to be online when you initially open a day on the Advent calendar, and it will not open a day until about lunch time UK time. After that you can use that puzzle offline. Halloween is all accessible. Thanks for that info djf i don't feel as "STUPID" now for posting the link as i thought peo...

Aha. Me too. And in Tony Limerick's presentation (the Europe MD) on QVC, he said that copied DVD's would be unable to be played back through a TV, due to DRM, only on the Archos' native display. I love the little DVR snap on. It's so small and portable, but extremely useful and simple to use. I use...

Just to clear up a few points the last poster made 3. It will record from dvd player directly but, as most dvd's are copy protected, you will be left with a copy on your Archos that can only be played back on the Archos screen - this is why most people rip dvd's on a pc, the drm is removed and a mu...

Random thought - I never know which things one can just disconnect from the PC . I think the Archos is one you can ... Actually, in the status bar at the top left, there will be a usb symbol. If you pull the bar down you will have the option to turn off the usb storage before you disconnect. It is ...

Let us know how you get on.

Connect your Archos to the PC then drag the file from your pc to the Archos "Downloads" folder once you've done that and your Archos is no longer connected to the PC go to "File Manager" on your Archos and scroll down till you find "Downloads" open this then you should see the file you dragged from ...

Drevil it's the full version.

Well peeps i've FINALLY got it sorted....it still wouldn't work properly connected to my dvd player BUT when i tried connecting it too my Blu Ray player it works smashing.Thanks for the help people it was appreciated. *thumbs up*

Thanks for that skull :-) Before logging on here today i've had another go with the DVR Snap On and when everything is connected up i am getting the sound of what i am wanting to record on my Archos but no picture so i'm missing something....but half way there....i think.

Unlike Coolstrutter though, cant record any old VHS tapes to my Archos. LOL that wasn't me bluenose that was another member skull who posted that. Note that the dvr snap on is a recorder only, not a player. So the TV-Out settings are irrelevant. I think you need another add-on to play video out fro...

I eventually sent mine back not because i couldn't get the video converter to work i returned it to QVC because the player completely died on me but thanks for all the peeps that tried to help.
