Chapter 6:

Disc playback

This system can play back a standard CD, CD-R/RW in the CD format and CD-R/RW with MP3 or WMA files, but cannot record on them. Some audio CD-R and CD-RW discs may not be playable due to the state of the disc or the device that was used for recording.

MP3:

MP3 is a form of compression. It is an acronym which stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3. MP3 is a type of audio code which is processed by significant compression from the original audio source with very little loss in sound quality.

• This system supports MPEG -1/2 Audio Layer 3 (Sampling rates: 8 kHz to 48 kHz; Bit rates: 64 kbps to 384 kbps).

• During VBR file playback, time counter in the display may differ from its actual playback time.

WMA:

WMA (Windows Media Audio) files are Advanced System Format files that include audio files which are compressed with Windows Media Audio codec. WMA is developed by Microsoft as an audio format file for Windows Media Player.

• This system supports WMA (Sampling rates: 32 kHz/44.1 kHz/48 kHz; Bit rates: 64 kbps to 320 kbps).

• During VBR file playback, time counter in the display may differ from its actual playback time.

About downloading MP3/WMA

There are many music sites on the internet that you can download MP3/WMA music files. Follow the instructions from the website on how to download the music files. You can then play back these downloaded music files by burning them to a CD-R/RW disc.

• Your downloaded song/files are for personal use only. Any other usage of the song without owner’s permission, is against the law.

About folder playback order

If MP3/WMA files are recorded in several folders, a folder number will be set to each folder automatically.

These folders can be selected by the FOLDER on the remote control. If there is no supported file formats inside the selected folder, the folder is skipped and the next folder will be selected.

Example: How the folder numbers are assigned if MP3/WMA format files are recorded are as shown below.

1 ROOT folder is set as FOLDER 1.

2 As for folders inside ROOT folder (FOLDER A and FOLDER B), the folder which is recorded earlier on the disc will be set as FOLDER 2 and FOLDER 3.

3 As for folder inside FOLDER A (FOLDER C and FOLDER D), the folder which is recorded earlier on the disc will be set as FOLDER 4 and FOLDER

5. 4 FOLDER E that is inside FOLDER D will be set

as FOLDER 6.

• The folder and file order information which is recorded on the disc depends on the writing software. There maybe possibilities that this unit will playback the files not according to our expected playback order.

• From a disc with MP3/WMA files up to 255 folders and 999 files (including non playable files) can be read.

• Microwave-based health aids

•Some baby monitors

Other, less common, equipment that may operate on the same frequency:

• Anti-theft systems

• Amateur radio stations (HAM)

• Warehouse logistic management systems

• Discrimination systems for train or emergency vehicles

Note

• In the event noise appears in your television image, there

is the possibility that a Bluetooth wireless technology enabled device or this unit (including products supported by this unit) are causing signal interference with the antenna input connector of your television, video, satellite tuner, etc. In this event, increase the distance between the antenna input connector and the Bluetooth wireless technology enabled device or this unit (including products supported by this unit).

• If there is something obstructing the path between this unit (including devices supported by this unit) and the device equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology (such as a metal door, concrete wall, or insulation containing tinfoil), you may need to change the location of your system to prevent signal noise and interruptions.

English Français Español

Scope of operation

Use of this unit is limited to home use. (Transmission distances may be reduced depending on communication environment).

In the following locations, poor condition or inability to receive radio waves may cause the audio to be interrupted or stopped:

• In reinforced concrete buildings or steel framed or ironframed buildings.

• Near large metallic furniture.

• In a crowd of people or near a building or obstacle.

• In a location exposed to the magnetic field, static electricity or radio wave interference from radio communication equipment using the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) as this unit, such as a 2.4 GHz wireless LAN device (IEEE802.11b/g) or microwave oven.

Bluetooth

• If you live in a heavily populated residential area (apartment, townhouse, etc.) and if your neighbor’s microwave is placed near your system, you may experience radio wave interference. If this occurs, move your unit to a different place. When the microwave is not in use, there will be no radio wave interference.
