Notes on MP3 Discs

About MP3

An MP3 file is audio data compressed using the
MPEG1, audio layer 3 file-coding scheme. Files with the
.mp3 file extension are called MP3 files.
The DVD+VCR cannot read an MP3 file that has a
file extension other than .mp3.
The DVD+VCR cannot read a fake MP3 file that has
a file extension .mp3.

MP3 disc compatibility with this DVD+VCR is

limited as follows:

1. Sampling Frequency: 44.1kHz only
2. Bit rate: 32 - 320kbps.
3. CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660.
4. If you record MP3 files using software which cannot
create a FILE SYSTEM, for example Direct-CD etc.,
it is impossible to play back MP3 files. It is therefore
recommended that you use Easy-CD Creator, which
creates an ISO9660 file system.
5. Asingle session disc requires MP3 files in the first
track. If there is no MP3 file in the first track, the unit
cannot play back MP3 files. If you wish to play back
MP3 files, format all the data on the disc or use a
new one.
This player can play CD-DAMulti-session discs.
But, playability cannot be guaranteed for all other
Multi-session discs.
6. File names should be named using 8 or fewer letters
and must incorporate the .mp3 extension
e.g. “********.mp3”.
7. Do not use special characters, such as
“_?!><+*}{`[@ ]:;\/.,” etc.
8. The total number of files on the disc should be 200
or less.
If a disc contains more than 200 files, the files num-
bered 201 or above cannot be displayed or played
back.
9. Use 74 minute CD-R discs (650M). Do not use 80
minute CD-R (700M) software.
The DVD+VCR requires discs/recordings to meet
certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically
set to these standards. There are many different types
of recordable disc formats (including CD-Rs containing
MP3 files).
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.
