CD-R MP3/WMA file
When you record MP3 or WMA files on CD-R, please refer
to the following.
- Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET
format.
ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files are
compatible with Microsoft's Windows, and with Apple's Mac.
This format is the most widely used.
- When naming your MP3 or WMA files, do not exceed 8
characters, and enter ".mp3, .wma" as the file
extension.
General name format : Title.mp3. or Title.wma. When
composing your title, make sure that you use 8 characters
or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of
special characters including: (.,/,\,=,+).
- Use a compression rate of at least 128 Kbps when
recording MP3 files.
Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on the rate
of compression you choose. Getting CD audio sound
requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is converted to
MP3 format, of at least 128 Kbps and up to 160 Kbps.
However, choosing higher rates, like 192
Kbps or more, only rarely give better sound quality.
Conversely, files with decompression rates below 128 Kbps
will not be played properly.
ENG-49
- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 64Kbps
when recording WMA files.
Sound quality with WMA files basically depends on the rate
of compression you choose.
Getting CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling
rate, of 64Kbps and up to 192Kbps.
Conversely, files with decompression rates below 64Kbps
or over 192Kbps will not be played properly.
- Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.
Certain "secured" files are encrypted and code protected to
prevent illegal copying. These files are of the following
types: Windows Media
TM
(registered trade mark of Microsoft
TM
Inc) and SDMI
(registered trade mark of The SDMI
Foundation). You cannot copy such files.
- Important:
The above recommendations cannot be taken as a
guarantee that the DVD player will play MP3 recordings, or
as an assurance of sound quality. You should note that
certain technologies and methods for MP3 file recording on
CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on your DVD
player (degraded sound quality and in some cases, inability
of the player to read the files).
- This unit can play a maximum of 3000 files and 300 folders
per disc.
