Notes on MP3 Recordings

About MP3

An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”. The VCR/DVD Recorder can not read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than “.mp3”.

MP3 Disc compatibility with this recorder is limited as follows:

1.CD-R/RW physical format should be “ISO 9660” and “JOLIET”.

2.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 recommend that you use “Easy-CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 or JOLIET file system.

3.The total number of files and folders on the disc are free but the total number of files and folders on the folder should be less than 1999.

This VCR/DVD Recorder requires discs/recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are auto- matically set to these standards. There are many differ- ent types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 files) that require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback.

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 permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.
