Test a Device for Compatibility

Follow these steps to test a device for compatibility with OverDrive WMA and WMV titles.

  1. Ensure that you have OverDrive Media Console installed.
    To download OverDrive Media Console, click here.

  2. Download the test file(s) of your choice. Select the format(s) you wish to transfer…
  3. Transfer the test file(s) to a portable device.
    For transfer instructions using OverDrive Media Console, click here.

  4. Play the test file(s) on the portable device.
    If the file(s) play without issue, the device supports the format(s) tested. If the device will not play the test file(s), or if playback is erratic, the device may not support the playback of DRM-protected Windows Media files.
    To see what you can do if your device is not supported, click here .

Notes

We are continually evaluating new devices and updating this list accordingly. If your device is not listed here, it might not have been tested. For a list of incompatible devices, click here.


Differences in device firmware (the software on which portable devices run) make it possible for two similar devices to have different results in regard to compatibility. Manufacturers often release firmware updates that may expand or limit device functionality. We recommend checking with manufacturers for the latest information on device firmware and file format support.


Unless otherwise indicated, OverDrive is not affiliated with and does not endorse any of the devices or manufacturers listed above.
