Notes on MP3/WMA 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 DVD/VCR Receiver can not read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than “.mp3”.

About WMA (Windows Media Audio) Files

An WMA file is a Microsoft audio compression technology.

WMA(Windows Media Audio) offers double audio compression of the MP3 format.

MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this player is limited as follows:

1.Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz (MP3), 22.05 - 44.1kHz (WMA)

2.Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3), 32 - 128kbps (WMA)

3.CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”

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

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

6.File names should be named using 8 letters or less and must incorporate “.mp3” or “.wma” extension e.g. “********.MP3” or “********.WMA”.

7.Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.

8.Total number of files on the disc should be less than 650.

This DVD/VCR Receiver 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/WMA files). Because this area of tech- nology is still evolving, Toshiba cannot guarantee that all recordable discs will produce optimal playback quali- ty. The technical criteria set forth in this owner's manual are meant only as a guide.

Please be advised that you must obtain permission from the applicable copyright owners to download copyrighted content, including music files, in any format, including the MP3 and WMA formats, prior to the downloading thereof.
