MP3/WMA/JPEG Compatibility

•The DVD receiver can play/display MP3, WMA, and JPEG files recorded on CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R and DVD+RW discs.

•Discs must be in ISO 9660 Level 2 or Joliet format (folders can be up to eight levels deep). Music files recorded on discs that use the HFS (hierarchical file system) cannot be played.

•Discs must be finalized.

•The DVD receiver can only recognize the first session on multisession discs.

•You can determine the order in which the DVD receiver plays/displays your MP3/WMA songs and JPEG pictures by prefixing file and folder names with a three-digit number. For example 001.Root, 002.Folder, and so on, and 001.Track.mp3, 002.Track.mp3, and so on.

•Only the first eight characters of folder and track names (excluding the filename extension) are displayed.

•The folder numbered “001” appears as “ROOT” in the Disc Navigator.

•The DVD receiver supports up to 255 folders and up to 255 files per folder.

•If you try to play an incompatible file, the message “This format cannot be played.” appears on the dis- play.

■MP3

•MP3 files must be MPEG1 Audio Layer 3 format, 44.1 or 48 kHz, fixed bit-rate.

•MP3 files must have a “.mp3” or “.MP3” filename extension.

•Variable bit-rates (VBR) from 32 kbps to 320 kbps are supported. (Playing times may display incorrectly with VBR.)

■WMA

•WMA files must have the copyright option turned off.

•Sampling rates 44.1/48 kHz are supported.

•Variable bit-rates (VBR) from 48 kbps to 192 kbps (44.1 kHz) and 128 kbps to 192 kbps (48 kHz) are supported. (Playing times may display incorrectly with VBR.)

•WMA files must have a “.wma” or “.WMA” filename extension.

About WMA

WMA is an acronym for Windows Media Audio and refers to an audio compression technology developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA content can be encoded by using Windows Media® Player version 7/7.1 or 8.

Handling Discs

•Never touch the underside of a disc. Always hold discs by the edge, as shown.

Underside

• Never attach adhesive tape or sticky labels to discs.

Cleaning Discs

•For best results, keep your discs clean. Fingerprints and dust can affect the sound and picture quality and should be removed as follows. Using a clean soft cloth, wipe from the center outwards, as shown. Never wipe in a circular direction.

✔

•To remove stubborn dust or dirt, wipe the disc with a damp soft cloth, and then dry it with a dry cloth.

•Never use solvent-based cleaning fluids, such as thin- ner or benzine, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic sprays intended for vinyl records, because they may damage the disc.

Storing Discs

•Don’t store discs in places subject to direct sunlight, or near heat sources.

•Don’t store discs in places subject to moisture or dust, such as in a bathroom or near a humidifier.

•Always store discs in their cases and vertically. Stack- ing, or putting objects on unprotected discs may cause warping, scratches, or other damage.
