Notes on Discs

Disc Recording Format

CD-R Discs

•Depending on the disc recording device (CD-Recorder or PC ) and the condition of the disc, some CD-R discs may not be playable.

•Use a 650MB/74 minute CD-R. Avoid CD-R media, as they may not be playable.

•If possible, do not use CD-RW (Rewritable) media, as they may not be playable.

•Only the CD-Rs that are properly "closed" can be fully played. If the session is closed but the disc is left open, you may not be able to fully play the disc.

CD-R MP3 Discs

•Only CD-R discs with MP3 files in ISO 9660 or Joliet format can be played.

•MP3 file names should be 8 characters or less in length and contain no blank spaces or special characters (. / = +).

•JPEG file names should be 8 characters or less in length and contain no blank spaces or special characters (. / = +).
