Getting MP3 Files Onto Your 305V:  
The DXG-305V has the ability to play MP3 files. Only song files in the MP3 file  
format can be played in the MP3 function. Files on CDs are usually in the  
Windows Media format (.wma) or wav format and cannot be played in their  
native format; they must first be converted into MP3 files. This can be  
accomplished with many types of software which are available at little or no  
cost.  
Once the songs are in the MP3 format, they can be transferred to the MP3 folder  
in the camera’s onboard memory or onto the SD card. This can be  
accomplished by one of two ways: 1.) Attach the USB cable to the camera,  
select “Mass Storage” and then use your PC to find the removable hard drive  
( the camera / SD card). Once located, drag and drop the MP3 files into the MP3  
folder. NOTE: Two removable hard drives will be visible if the camera has an SD  
card inserted. 2.) The other way is to place the SD card into a card reader,  
locate the MP3 folder, and drag and drop the MP3 files into the MP3 folder. The  
card can then be re-inserted into the camera.  
Once the files are in the MP3 folder, they can be played by rotating the mode  
dial to the MP3 mode.
