CAUTION
Method for creating MP3 files
Except for personal enjoyment, duplicating audio data (including MP3 data) or
distributing, or copying it, whether for free or for a fee, without the permission
of the Copyright Act International Treaty are regulated by Federal Law.
MP3, whose official name is “MPEG Audio Layer 3”, is a compression
standard prescribed by the ISO, the International Standardization
Organization and MPEG which is a joint activity institution of the IEC.MP3
files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is capable of
compressing the audio data at extremely high ratios shrinking music files by as
much as one-tenth their original size. This is achieved while still maintaining
near CD quality. The MP3 format realizes such high compression ratios by
eliminating the sounds which are either inaudible to the human ear or masked
by other sounds.
The software used to create MP3 files is widely sold or free from
various sources. For details on creating MP3 files, refer to the user’s
manual for that software.The MP3 files that can be played back by this
device have the file extension“mp3.” Files with no extension cannot be
played back. Supported playback sampling rates and bit rates
sampling rates: 8 kHz- 48 kHz, bit rates: 8-384 kps
This device supports ID3 tag v1 and v2.
