Notes on MP3 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 recorder can not read an MP3 file that has a file
extension other than “.mp3”.

MP3 Disc compatibility with this recorder is
limited as follows:

1. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660” and

“JOLIET”.

2. If you record MP3 files using the software which

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

3. Total number of files and folders on the disc should

be less than 999.

This DVD Recorder requires discs/recordings to meet
certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically
set to these standards. There are many different types
of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing
MP3 files) that require certain pre-existing conditions
(see above) to insure compatible playback.

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