`Your Player Here`

  With profiles, iriverter may work with your player.

## 1.1.1. Firmware

If you are using an H300 series player, you may need to upgrade your firmware, which is the operating system on the player. During the startup of your player, you should see the version of your firmware on the bottom of the screen. If it is less than 1.20, you need to upgrade. You can get the firmware for your respective country on iriver's website. The newest version, 1.28, adds WAV playback and a clock among other things.

### 1.1.1.1. Installing the New Firmware

The firmware is provided in a zip package. To install it:

1. Extract the firmware using an unzipping utility.

2. Run the exe file that was extracted from the package.

3. Put `H300.hex` that came from the exe onto the "ROOT" folder of the H300.

4. Ensure the H300 is plugged in and has a full battery to avoid problems.

5. Hold down "NAVI" and select General->Firmware Upgrade.

6. Confirm that you want to upgrade and wait a few minutes for the process to complete. The H300 will turn off when it is done.

### 1.1.1.2. Korean Firmware on US Players

It is possible to use the Korean firmware on a US H300 series player, and in turn get video playback capability. Unfortunetly, DRM music playback, which is used to play music purchased from subscription-based music services like Napster, will be lost forever. Additionally, your warranty may be voided, although this has yet to be either confirmed or denied.
