Updating
your iPod automatically
Do
you often record or download media files for your iPod? By using Monitor Folder, Schedule Conversion, and Copy To Go, you
can monitor
folders for newly recorded or downloaded files, schedule their conversion to the
right format, and transfer them directly to your iPod.
Simply
follow these steps...
Step
1: Select the folders to be monitored
Let
us begin by monitoring folders so that their contents can be scheduled for converting.
1.
Open DVD Copy 6 and click the Convert File button.
2. In Output/Target devices, select iPod.
3.

Repeat Step 3 if you want to monitor multiple folders. You can
delete a folder by selecting it and pressing the [Delete] key or clicking
the Delete button.
Note: A
good tip to avoid confusion is to sort your media. For example, create separate
folders for video and music files and categorize your files in subfolders.
When you add files to monitored folders, DVD Copy 6 will automatically put these
newly added files to the list of files for conversion.

Specify the folder where the converted file will be located in Target.

To Go. Click OK.
