MP3 is a process developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for compressing CD audio data. Compression allows data to be reduced to around 10% of their original size without a noticeable loss in quality (at a bit rate of 128 kbit/s). If a lower bit rate is used to convert CD audio data to MP3, you can create smaller files but there will be a loss in quality.
Preparing the MP3-CD
The various combinations of CD burners, CD burning software and CD blanks may lead to problems arising with the ability to play certain CDs. If problems occur with your own burned CDs, you should try another brand of CD blank or choose another blank colour.
The format of the CD must be ISO 9660 Level 1 / Level 2 or Joliet. Other formats cannot be played reliably.
You can create a maximum of 253 directories on a CD. Each of these directories can be accessed using this device.
Regardless of the number of directories on a CD, a total of 65535 files can be supported, even in one single directory. This device can support as many

Each directory can be named using a PC. The directory name can be displayed in the device’s display. Name the directories and files using your CD burner software. The software’s operating instructions will provide details on how to do this.
Note:
●When naming directories and files you should avoid using special characters. Use a maximum of 32 characters for file names (including the extension “.MP3”) and directory names.
If you like your files to be in the correct order, you should use burner software that places files in alphanumerical order. If your software does not provide this feature, you can also sort the files manually. To do so, you should place a
