What is MP3?

“MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3)” is a standard technology and format for compressing an audio sequence into a small-sized file. However it preserves the original level of sound quality when it is played.

Notes

The DVD receiver is compatible with a bit rate range of 32, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256 or 320 kbps and variable bit encoded MP3 files.

What is WMA?

What is JPEG?

“JPEG” is a compression format for still images. With only a slight drop in image quality (part of the data is removed), still image data can be compressed to approximately 1/10 to 1/100 of its original size.

Note

What is DivX®?

“DivX®” is a video compression technology developed by DivX® Networks, Inc. It compresses digital video data to sizes small enough to be transported over the Internet without reducing the original video quality.
