What is JPEG
A still-picture data compression system was proposed
by the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which
features a small decrease in image quality in spite of
its high compression ratio.
Disc Structure
On a JPEG disc, each still picture (material) is
recorded as a file. Files are usually grouped into a
folder. Folders can also include another folders,
creating hierarchical folder layers.
This system simplifies the hierarchical construction
of a disc and manages folders by "groups."
This system can recognize up to 700 items in one
folder, and items include subfolders and files.
You can arrange the file playback order for MP3
tracks or files.

Notes about Discs
On handling discs
To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not
touch the surface.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources such
as shot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight
as the temperature may rise considerably inside the car.
After playing, store the disc in its case.
On cleaning discs
Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the
disc from the centre out.
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.
