Guidance of M P3/JPEG

MP3/JPEG media that can be played back with this equipment
Usable media : CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW Usable formats : ISO9660 level 1 (excluding exp anded formats ) Files that can be played back : MP3 files and JPEG files (including Progressive J PEG)
Creating media for playing back on this equipment
Compressing M P3
Please set up the transfer bit rate set ting f o r the compression software when com p re s s in g MP3 files as follow. MP3 Files : 128kbp s re c o mm en d e d (32kbps-320kbps)
÷ This unit is compatible with 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz(recomm ended) and 48 kHz sampling frequencies. ÷ This unit is compatible with ID3-TAG V er. 1.
÷ DIGITAL output of MP3 data is done not as MP3 data, but as PCM data.
Naming folders and files
Single-byte characters bet ween A and Z, single-byte nu merais between 0 and 9, and t he s in gle -byte underscore(_) can be displayed. Ensure that the "mp3" (MP3 files) or "jpg" (JPEG file s ) extension log is attached to all file n ames
÷ Never add the "mp3" extension log to any files other than MP3 files. If the "mp3" extension log is added to any files other
than MP3 files, the equipment will assume that they can be played back, and this will produce loud noises in the speakers, resulting in damage of adverse effects.
÷ Never add the "jpg" extension log to any files other than JPEG files. If the "jpg" extension log is added to any files other
than JPEG, the unit will not operate normally.
Confirming media and files
Check to ascert ain that MP3 files can be played back correctly o n the personal computer in u se p ri or to saving them ont o the media. Check to ensur e that t h e s aved file can be played back normally.
÷ It is not possible to confirm that files can be played back correctly while they are being saved onto the media.
When saving files onto media
Ensure that the session is closed or finalized when data has been written on media . T here a re cases where media on which the session has not be clos ed o r finalized will no t be played back correct ly with thi s e q u ip ment .
÷ There are cases where the folder names and file names will not be displayed correctly depending on the software used to
save them.
÷ Do not store files or folders other than MP3 or JPEG on media to be played back wit h this equipment. ÷ It is recommended that ten or less sessions are stored when recording MP3 files onto a media. ÷ In case of a multisession disc, some t ime may be required until playback begins. ÷ There are cases where playback is not possible w hen MP3/JPEG files (CD-ROM) and m usic CD infomation (CD-DA) are
saved on the same media.
Example for a hierarchical structure
Folder names and file names are displayed up to 11 characters. When folder names and file na mes are recorded with more than 11 characters, the n ames will be displayed in abbreviated form.
