Micro-component system featuring DVD VIDEO and MD

3

A DVD VIDEO player and MD recorder are provided as standard. This combination can be used for example for playing DVD music software and record its audio output on an MD. (Note that it is only the analog audio that can be recorded when recording DVD Video, VCD or MP3 file playback on MD.)

MP3 playback

Music files recorded in the MP3 audio compression format can be played back.

MD Long Play modes

With the long-hour recording/playback modes (LP2, LP4) based on ATRAC3 (MDLP), digital long-hour re- cording/playback for twice (about 160 minutes*) or 4 times (about 320 minutes*) the normal recording/ playback time is now available. (* Data using a 80-minute disc.)

CD = MD high-speed dubbing

This convenient feature enables simple, quick dubbing from a CD to an MD.

(Note that recording of discs other than CD on MD is possible only in the normal speed because it is only their analog audio output that can be recorded on MD.)
