About MP3/WMA

CAUTION
Except for private use, duplicating audio data (including MP3/
WMA data) or distributing, transferring, or copying it, whether
for free or for a fee, without permission of the copyright holder is
strictly prohibited by the Copyright Act and by international
treaty.
What is MP3?
MP3, whose official name is "MPEG-1 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 audio data at extremely high ratios,
reducing the size of music files to 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 that are either inaudible to the human
ear or masked by other sounds.
What is WMA?
WMA, or "Windows Media™ Audio," is compressed audio data.
WMA allows you to create music files and store them at higher
ratios of compression than MP3 audio data (approx. half original
size). This is achieved while still maintaining CD quality sound.
Method for creating MP3/WMA files
Audio data is compressed by using MP3/WMA specified
software. For details on creating MP3/WMA files, refer to the
user's manual for that software.
MP3/WMA files that can be played back by this device have the
file extension "mp3" / "wma". Files with no extension cannot be
played back. (WMA ver. 7.1 and 8 are supported)
Supported playback sampling rates and bit rates
MP3
Sampling rates: 32 kHz ~ 48 kHz
Bit rates: 32 - 320 kbps
WMA
Sampling rates: 32 kHz ~ 48 kHz
Bit rates: 32 - 320 kbps
This device may not play back correctly depending on sampling
rates or bit rates.
ID3 tags/WMA tags
If tag data is in an MP3/WMA file, this device can display the title
(track title), artist name, and album name ID3 tag/WMA tag data
(maximum 128 characters).
This device can only display single-byte alphanumeric
characters and the underscore. For non-supported characters,
"NO SUPPORT" is displayed.
The number of characters may be limited, or not correctly
displayed, depending on the tag information.
Producing MP3/WMA discs
MP3/WMA files are prepared, then written to a CD-R or CD-RW
(DVD-R/DVD-RW) using CD-R writing software. A disc can hold
up to 1024 files/256 folders (including Root Folders).
Depending on the folder/file structure of the disc, it can take
several minutes to read a disc. In this case, it is recommended
to reduce the number of folders used.
