CD-R MP3/WMA file
When you record MP3 or WMA files on CD-R, please refer to the following.
- Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format.
ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files are compatible with Microsoft's DOS and
Windows, and with Apple's Mac.This format is the most widely used.
- When naming your MP3 or WMA files, do not exceed 8 characters, and enter “.mp3, .wma”
as the file extension.
General name format : Title.mp3. or Title.wma. 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 CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion
to MP3 format, of at least 128 Kbps and up to 160 Kbps. However, choosing higher rates, like
Kbps or more, only rarely give better sound quality. Conversely, files with decompression rates
below 128 Kbps will not be played properly.
- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 64Kbps when recording WMA files.
Sound quality with WMA files basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression you
choose. Getting CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to
WMA format, of at least 64Kbps and up to Kbps. Conversely, files with decompression rates
below 64Kbps or over Kbps will not be played properly.
- Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.
Certain "secured" files are encrypted and code protected to prevent illegal copying. These files
are of the following types: Windows Media (registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and SDMITM
(registered trade mark of The SDMI Foundation). You cannot copy such files.
- 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).
- This unit can play a maximum of 500 files and 500 folders per disc.
MPEG4 Playback
MPEG4 Play Function
MPEG4 is a compressed video format designed to deliver DVD quality video at lower data rates
and smaller file sizes. Types of MPEG4 files are DivX or Xvid. These files have an .avi extension. AVI
