What is MP3? MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3.
MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 Kbps*). That means,by using
MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD.
CD-R MP3 DISC
• Only CD-R discs with MP3 files in ISO 9660 or Joliet format can be played.
• The file name of the MP3 file may not be longer than 8 characters and should contain no blank spaces or special
characters.
• Use discs recorded with a compression/decompression data rate greater than 128Kbps.
• Only files with the ".mp3" and ".MP3" extensions can be played.
• Only a consecutively written Multisession disc can be played. If there is a blank segment in the Multisession disc,
the disc can be played only up to the blank segment.
• If the disc is not closed, it will take longer to begin playback and not all of the recorded files may be played.
• For files encoded in Variable Bit Rate (VBR) format, i.e. files encoded in both low bit rate and high bit rate (e.g.,
32Kbps ~ 320Kbps), the sound may skip during playback.
Depending on the recording mode, some MP3-CDs cannot be played.
