About MP3

An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files that have the .mp3 file extension MP3 files.

The DVD+VCR cannot read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than .mp3.

The DVD+VCR cannot read a fake MP3 file that has a file extension .mp3.

MP3 disc compatible with this DVD+VCR is limited as follows:

1.Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz

2.Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps

3.CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660

4.If you record MP3 files using the software which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example Direct- CD etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We therefore recommend that you use Easy-CD Creator, which creates an ISO9660 file system.

5.A single session disc requires MP3 files in the first track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it can- not playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3 files, format all the data in the disc or use a new one.

6.We do not recommend using CD-RW discs. Please use finished CD-R discs only.

7.File names should be named using 8 letters or less and must incorporate the .mp3 extension

e.g. “********.MP3”.

8.Do not use special characters such as “_?!><+*}{`[@ ]:;\/.,” etc.

9.Total number of files on the disc should be less than 256.

10.Use 74 minute CD-R discs (650M), do not use 80 minute CD-R (700M) software.

This DVD+VCR requires discs/recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 files).

Customers should also note that permission is required in order to download MP3 files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such per- mission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.
