Disc Recording Format

CD-R Discs

Depending on the disc recording device (CD-Recorder or PC ) and the condition of the disc, some CD-R discs may not be playable.

Use a 650MB/74 minute CD-R. Avoid CD-R media, as they may not be playable.

If possible, do not use CD-RW (Rewritable) media, as they may not be playable.

Only CD-Rs that are properly "closed" can be fully played. If the session is closed but the disc is left open, you may not be able to fully play the disc.

CD-R MP3 Discs

Only CD-R discs with MP3 files in ISO 9660 or Joliet format can be played.

MP3 file names should be 8 characters or less in length and contain no blank spaces or special characters (. / = +).

Only files with the ".mp3" and ".MP3" extensions can be played.

Only a consecutively written Multi session disc can be played. If there is a blank segment in the Multi session disc, the disc can be played only up to the blank segment.

If the disc is not closed, it will take longer to begin playback and not all of the recorded files may be played.

For files encoded in Variable Bit Rate (VBR) format, i.e. files encoded in both low bit rate and high bit rate (e.g., 32Kbps ~ 320Kbps), the sound may skip during playback.
