file extension other than “.mp3” / “.wma”.
•CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660
•If you record MP3 / WMAfiles using software that

impossible to playback MP3 / WMAfiles. We rec-
ommend that you use Easy-CD Creator, which cre-
ates an ISO 9660 file system.
•File names should have a maximum of 8 letters and
must incorporate an .mp3 or .wma extension.

This DVD+VCR requires discs and recordings to meet
certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatical-
ly set to these standards. There are many different
types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R con-
taining MP3 or WMAfiles) and these require certain
pre-existing conditions (see above) to ensure compat-
ible playback. Because this area of technology is still
evolving, Toshiba cannot guarantee that all recordable
discs will produce optimal playback quality. The tech-
nical criteria set forth in this owner’s manual are
meant only as a guide.
Please be advised that you must obtain permis-
sion from the applicable copyright owners to
download copyrighted content, including music
files, in any format, including the MP3 and WMA
formats, prior to the downloading thereof. Toshiba
