MP3 File Compatibility

This system can only read MP3 files that are recorded in the format that is compliant with ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2.

The system can read or play MP3 files only with the extension code —“.mp3 ”.

ID3*tags cannot be shown on the display.

*An MP3 file can contain file information called “ID3 Tag ” where its album name, performer, rack title, etc. are recorded. There are two versions —ID3v1 (ID3 Tag ver- sion 1)and ID3v2 (ID3 Tag version 2).

What is MP3?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 Kbps*).

That means,by using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can. *Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of audio data will consume. The measuring unit used is Kbps (1000 bits per second).

To get a better audio quality, choose a higher bit rate. The most popular bit rate for encoding (recording)is 128 Kbps.

CD-R/RW playback compatibility

Your DVD player can also play CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in digital audio format. When recording your own CD-R or CD-RW discs, make sure that the recording ses- sion is properly terminated, or they will not be playable. (Depending on disc properties and recording quality, some CD-R/RW may not be playable.)

CD-RW has a lower reflection rate than CD-R media and consequently it will take a longer to read CD-R discs.

CD-RW discs recorded at high speed tend to be difficult for the DVD player to read. If the recording speed for the CD-RW disc is not predetermined, write it at low speed.
