Making and playing MP3/WMA files

MP3/WMA files created by recording broadcasts, records, audio recordings, video recordings
or live performances cannot be used for purposes other than personal entertainment without
permission of the copyright holder as set forth in copyright law.

There are many kinds of sites that distribute MP3/WMA files on the Internet, such as “pay per
download” online shopping sites, “try before you buy” listening sites and free download sites.
Follow the rules for each site (such as paying fees) and download according to site
instructions.

Prepare a computer with commercially available MP3/WMA encoding software (conversion
software). (Some encoding programs available on the Internet do not require payment.) Music
data files in MP3/WMA format can be made by inserting the music CD into the CD-ROM drive
of the computer and following the procedures of the MP3/WMA encoding software to
compress the songs of the music CD. A 12cm music CD (having a maximum of 74 minutes of
recording/650MB of data) can be compressed to 65MB (about 1/10 of the original size).

MP3/WMA files can be recorded on CD-R/RW by using a CD-R/RW drive connected to a
computer. Record by setting the recording format of the recording software to ISO9660 level 1
or level 2 (not including extension format).
Select CD-ROM (mode 1) for the disc format. Discs recorded with CD-ROM xA (mode 2)
cannot be played on this deck.

Insert a CD-R/RW containing recorded MP3/WMA files. The system will automatically
determine whether the disc is a music CD or a CD-R/RW with MP3/WMA files and begin
playing the disc. A music CD recorded onto a CD-R/RW can also be played. However,
depending on the type of disc being used, playback may not be possible.

When writing to CD-R/RW

When playing back CD-R/RW

●A fixed bit rate of 128kbps and sampling frequency of 44.1kHz is recommended

for obtaining stable audio quality at playback.

●Depending on the characteristics of a disc, the system may not be able to read

CD-R and CD-RW discs.

●Because there are many types of MP3/WMA encoding software available,

including commercial and freeware programs, audio quality may deteriorate,
noise may be generated when playing starts and some recordings may not play,
depending on the condition of the encoder and the file format.

●When files other than MP3/WMA files are recorded on a disc, the system may

take some time to recognize the disc or it may not play.
