Notes on MP3/WMA Recordings

About MP3

"

"

An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the
MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files
that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.

"

"

The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file exten-
sion other than “.mp3”.

About WMA(Window Media Audio)

"

"

An WMA file is a Microsoft audio compression
technology.

"

"

WMA(Windows Media Audio) offers double the audio
compression of the MP3 format.

MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this player is
limited as follows:

1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz (MP3),

22.05 - 44.1kHz (WMA)

2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3),

32 - 128kbps (WMA)

3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”
4. If you record MP3/WMA files using the software which

cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “Direct-CD”
etc., it is impossible to playback MP3/WMA files. We
recommend that you use “Easy-CD Creator”, which cre-
ates an ISO9660 file system.

5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the first

track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st track, it
cannot playback MP3/WMA files. If you wish to playback
MP3/WMA files, format all the data in the disc or use a
new one.

6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less and

must incorporate “.mp3” or “.wma” extension
e.g. “********.MP3” or “********.WMA”.

7. Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.
8. Total number of files on the disc should be less than 650.

This DVD+VCR requires discs/recordings to meet
certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal play-
back quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to
these standards. There are many different types of record-
able disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA
files), and these require certain pre-existing conditions (see
above) to insure compatible playback.

Customers should also note that permission is
required in order to download MP3/WMA files and
music from the Internet. Our company has no right
to grant such permission. Permission should always
be sought from the copyright owner.
