EN | DivX files |
DivX is the name of a revolutionary new video codec | |
| which is based on the new |
| standard for video. The correct playback of DivX files on |
| this player depends on the preparation and production |
| of the audio and video files, the codec used, the type of |
| recording equipment used and the parameters of your |
| computer. It may therefore happen that you cannot play |
| a DivX file or that part or all of it is defective. |
| DivX disc compatibility with this player is limited as |
| follows: • The maximum resolution of the DivX file is |
| below 720x576 (W x H) pixel. • DivX filenames should |
| not exceed 56 characters. • If the video and audio |
| structure of recorded file is not interleaved, either video |
| or audio is outputted. • If the file is recorded with GMC, |
| the unit supports only |
| acronym for Global Motion Compensation. It is an |
| encoding tool specified in MPEG4 standard. Some |
| MPEG4 encoders, like DivX or XviD, have this option. |
| There are different levels of GMC encoding, usually |
| called |
mp3 files
•Your mp3 files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format. ISO 9660 format and Joliet mp3 files are compatible with Microsoft’s DOS and Windows, as well as with Apple Mac. These two formats are the most widely used. • mp3 filenames should not exceed 8 characters, and should end with the “.mp3” extension. General name format: Title.mp3.When composing your title ensure that you use 8 characters or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of special characters including (. , / , \ , = ,+).• The total number of files on a disc should be less than 650.• Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 kB/sec (kilobytes/second) when recording mp3 files. Sound quality with mp3 files basically depends on the rate
of compression/decompression you choose. Obtaining audio CD quality sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to mp3 format, of at least 128 kB/sec and up to 160 kB/sec. Choosing higher rates, such as 192 kB/sec or more, only rarely produces even better sound quality. Conversely, files with sampling rates below 128 kB/sec will not play properly. • Do not try recording
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-R with WMA files.
•WMA filenames should not exceed 8 characters, and should end with the “.wma” extension. General name format:Title.wma.When composing your title ensure that you use 8 characters or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of special characters including (. , / , \ , = ,+).• The total number of files on a disc should be less than 650.
JPEG files
The total number of files and folders on the disc should be less than 650. Make sure that files have the “.jpg” extension. Files without the “.jpg” extension will not be able to be read by the player - even though the files are shown as JPEG images on your computer.
