DMP-120

Thank you for purchasing the D-Link DMP -120 MP-3 Player. The DMP­120 is designed to bring you the latest technology and high quality sound.
Please follow this User Manual to install and enjoy your favorite music
with the DMP -120.
MP3 is short for MPEG-1 audio, layer 3. MP3 is a format that allows you
to compress and store music files on your computer. Most people cannot
hear the difference between MP3 and Audio-CD music. This is because
MP3 removes certain frequencies during the compression process. The
human ear is less sensitive to the frequencies that have been removed.
Resulting files are small in size (about 1/10~1/12 of original size), yet
retain high quality. Typically a 1 MB MP3 file will represent one minute
of music or several minutes of Digital Voice Recording. These high­quality, small files enable efficient storage of music on a hard drive,
reasonable file download times via the Internet, and portability of files on
hardware devices. The compression bit rate and other variables can also
affect the quality of an MP3 file. To obtain good quality MP3 files, close
all the resident files and software before encoding.
The Digital Voice Recording (DVR) feature enables roughly 4 minutes of
voice data storage per MB at 8Khz sampling rate which is then played
back at a rate of 32Kbps.
