CX-DVP292N CX-D

This player allows you to play MP3 files recorded on CD-ROMs, CD-Rs (recordable) and CD-RWs (rewritable). About CD-Rs and CD-RWs, see "Notes on CD-Rs/RWs" on page 30.

What is MP3?

MP3, short for MPEG Audio Layer-3, is a standard for compressing digital video data adopted for video CDs and similar media. It is one of the audio compression schemes covered by MPEG's (Motion Picture Experts Group) digital audio compression standards. What it does is reduce the number of bytes in a song without hurting the sound quality by means such as eliminating big sound waves within in the sound range that is imperceptible to the human ear. This compression allows you to reduce the contents of a conventional music CD by a factor of around 10. This means that you can record the contents of 10 music CDs on a single CD-R or CD-RW. (The figures refer to data recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.)

Points to Remember When Recording an MP3 Disc

□ Converting (encoding) audio data to an MP3 file

• It is recommended to set the bit rate to "128 kbps or more" and "Fixed".
• Bit rate 8 kbps of MPEG 2 and sampling frequency 16 kHz of MPEG 2 cannot be reproduced.
• If set to VBR (Variable Bit Rate), the file playing time may not be displayed correctly.
• The playback sound quality differs depending on the encoding software and the bit rate. For details, refer to the user manual of your encoding software.

□ Recording MP3 files on CD-R/RW

• Do not record files other than MP3s or unnecessary folders on a disc.
  If too many folders or files other than MP3s are recorded on a disc, it may take some time before playback starts.
• Use ISO 9660 file system (Extension of the ISO 9660 file systems are included.) (→ page 28). APPLE HFS file system is not supported. If they do not conform to the ISO 9660 file system, the file may not play normally, or the file or folder names may not be displayed correctly.
• Make sure to add the “.mp3” extension to each MP3 file name.
  A file with a different file name extension or none at all will not play.
• Although Multi session recording is supported, the use of Disc-at-Once is recommended. Make sure to close the session when you finished recording on a disc.
  • ID3 Tag Ver. 2 and up are not supported.
  With ID3 Tag Ver. 2 and up, the song information is stored but not displayed.
• Packet writing software is not supported.
• A playlist function is not supported.
  Record files and folders in the order in which you want them to be played. Some writing software lets you specify the recording order by adding a prefix in the range of "01"-99", etc. to the file name. For details, refer to the user manual of your writing software.

Note:

- You may encounter trouble in playing MP3s or displaying the information of MP3 files recorded with certain writing softwares or CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives).

Notes on MP3(continued)

Caution:

- Never assign the ".mp3" file name extension to a file that is not in the MP3 format. This may not only produce noise from the speakers and speaker damage, but can damage your hearing.

Note:

- MP3 encode software and writing software are not supplied to this model.

☐ Maximum Number of Files/Folders

■Maximum number of trees: 8

- Maximum number of files/folders: 254 (files + folders. Root folder is not included.)

Note:

- If the total of trees and folders exceeds 254, successful playback may not be performed.

Note:

• This unit counts the number of the folders irrespective of the presence or absence of MP3 file. (Example: there is no MP3 file in a root folder as shown in the drawing, but a folder number "001" is given. In fact, there is no MP3 file to reproduce. Therefore, the next folder is automatically selected.)
• The writing software sometimes changes the order of folders and files on a disc, so the order may differ from what you specified. For details, refer to the user manual of your writing software.
• If you record too many folders or files other than MP3 onto a disc, it may take some time before playback starts.
  ●Playback order varies with players even if the same disc is loaded.
• If a disc contains both CD-DA and MP3 data, only CD-DA data will be played back.
• If the ignition switch of your car is turned to OFF during playback, there may be a time lag between the file playing time on the display and the actual playing time. In addition, playback may start from the beginning of the music when using VBR (Variable Bit Rate) of a MP3 file in the same situation.

Connecting the Clamp Connector ⑤

• Attach the clamp connector to the vehicle cord at a suitable position.
• Note that if the cord being clamped onto is too thin (0.3 mm ^2 or less), the connection may not be adequate.

Push the end of the side brake cord into the hole on the clamp connector.

Place the vehicle cord into the groove in the clamp connector.

While making sure that the cords do not slip out of the clamp connector, press the element down with a pair of pliers.

Close the cover until it snaps shut.
