When you record MP3 or WMA files on CD-R, please refer to the following.

- Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET

format.

ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files are

compatible with Microsoft's Windows, and with Apple's Mac.

This format is the most widely used.

- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 64Kbps

when recording WMA files.

Sound quality with WMA files basically depends on the rate

of compression you choose.

Getting CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling

rate, of 64Kbps and up to 192Kbps.

Conversely, files with decompression rates below 64Kbps

or over 192Kbps will not be played properly.

and WMA files, only one type will play, not both.

- When naming your MP3 or WMA files, do not exceed 8

characters, and enter “.mp3, .wma” as the file

extension.

General name format : Title.mp3. or Title.wma. When

composing your title, make sure that you use 8 characters

or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of

special characters including: (.,/,\,=,+).

- Use a compression rate of at least 128 Kbps when

recording MP3 files.

Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on the rate

of compression you choose. Getting CD audio sound

requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is converted to

MP3 format, of at least 128 Kbps and up to 160 Kbps.

However, choosing higher rates, like 192

Kbps or more, only rarely give better sound quality.

Conversely, files with decompression rates below 128 Kbps

will not be played properly.

- Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.

Certain "secured" files are encrypted and code protected to

prevent illegal copying. These files are of the following

types: Windows MediaTM (registered trade mark of Microsoft

Inc) and SDMITM (registered trade mark of The SDMI

Foundation). You cannot copy such files.

- Important:

The above recommendations cannot be taken as a
guarantee that the DVD player will play MP3 recordings, or
as an assurance of sound quality. You should note that
certain technologies and methods for MP3 file recording on
CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on your DVD
player (degraded sound quality and in some cases, inability
of the player to read the files).
- This unit can play a maximum of 3000 files and 300 folders
per disc.	Advanced Functions
