MP3 Play (

CD-R MP3 disc requirements)

When playing CD-R MP3 discs, please follow the recommendations below:

• Your MP3 files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format.

ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 files are compatible with Microsoft's DOS and Windows, and with Apple's Mac. These two formats are the most widely used.

• When naming your MP3 files do not exceed 8 characters, and place ".mp3" as the file extension.

General name format of: Title.mp3. 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 decompression transfer rate of at least 128 Kbps when recording MP3 files.

Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression you choose. Getting audio CD quality sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate (conversion 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 sampling rates below 128 Kbps will not be played properly.

• Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.

Certain "securized" files are encrypted and code protected to prevent illegal copying. These files are of the following types: Windows MediaTM (registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and SDMITM (registered trade mark of The SDMI Foundation). You cannot copy such files.

• Your DVD player only accepts one level of file directory. Consequently you must choose:

- either to save all your MP3 recording files at the root of the disc;

- and/or create folders in the directory for each artist or music type (e.g.classical, rock, jazz, etc)

• 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).

DVD

MP3 Play

When an MP3 Disc is inserted into the DVD-VCR, the first song file of the first folder plays.

1 Press STOP to stop playback of the first song file, then press

RETURN to display the music folder menu on the right side of the screen. Up to 8 music folders can be displayed at a time. If you have more than 8 folders on a disc, press the

➛

or ❿buttons to

bring them up on the screen.

2 Use the

or❷

buttons to select the desired music folder, the

press ENTER. Use the

Cooling fan

The cooling fan in the rear center of the unit ensures reliable operation and protects it from overheating. It will operate automatically as needed to circulate cool air when the temperature rises past a set threshold. For safety, please take note of the following points:

• Make sure that the unit is well-ventilated. Poor ventilation may cause damage by overheating.

• Make sure that the cooling fan or ventilation holes are not obstructed. (If the ventilation holes are blocked by newspaper, clothes, etc., heat builds up inside the main unit, resulting in a risk of fire.)

• When the power is supplied to the main unit, the cooling fan will be activated.
