Use a decompression transfer rate of at least
128Kbps when recording MP3 files.
Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on
the rate of compression/decompression you choose.
Getting audio CD quality sound requires an
analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to
MP3 format, of at least 128Kbps and up to 160Kbps.
However, choosing higher rates, like 192Kbps or
more, only rarely give better sound quality.
Conversely, files with decompression rates below
128Kbps will not be played properly.
Use a decompression transfer rate of at least
64Kbps when recording WMAfiles.

WMAformat, of at least 64Kbps and up to 192Kbps.
Conversely, files with decompression rates below
64Kbps or over 192Kbps will not be played properly.

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 500 files and 300
