Characteristics

DVD

When playing CD-R/RW 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 15 characters, and place ".mp3" as the file extension.

General name format of: Title.mp3. When composing your title, make sure that you use 15 characters or less.

• 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 "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.
