What is WMA?
WMA, or “Windows Media™ Audio,” is compressed audio data. WMA is similar to MP3 audio data and can achieve CD quality sound with small file sizes.
Method for creating MP3/WMA files
Audio data is compressed using software with MP3/WMA codecs. For details on creating MP3/WMA files, refer to the user’s manual for that software.
MP3/WMA files that are playable on this device have the file extensions “mp3” / “wma” Files with no extension cannot be played back (WMA ver.

This device supports discs formatted with ISO9660 Level 1 or Level 2.
Under the ISO9660 standard, there are some restrictions to remember.
The maximum nested folder depth is 8 (including the root directory). The number of characters for a folder/file name is limited.
Valid characters for folder/file names are letters
This device also can play back discs in Joliet, Romeo, etc., and other standards that conform to ISO9660. However, sometimes the file names, folder names, etc., are not displayed correctly.

Terminology
Bit rate
This is the “sound” compression rate specified for encoding. The higher the bit rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger the files.
Sampling rate
This value shows how many times per second the data is sampled (recorded). For example, music CDs use a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz, so the sound is sampled (recorded) 44,100 times per second. The higher the sampling rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger the volume of data.
Encoding
