There may be a slight delay when starting playback of WMA files encoded with image data.

- This unit allows playback of MP3/WMA/n-WAV files on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs. Disc recordings compatible with level 1 and level 2 of ISO9660 and with the Romeo and Joliet file system can be played back.

relt is possible to play back multi-session compatible recorded discs.

- MP3/WMA/WAV files are not compatible with packet write data transfer.

- The maximum number of characters which can be displayed for a file name, including the extension (.mp3, .wma or .wav), is 64, from the first character.

The maximum number of characters which sc. can be displayed for a folder name is 64.

- In case of files recorded according to the Romeo file system, only the first 64 characters can be displayed.

  • When playing discs with MP3/WMA/WAV files and audio data (CD-DA) such as CD-EXTRA and MIXED-MODE CDs, both types can be played only by switching mode between MP3/WMA/WAV and CD-DA.
  • The folder selection sequence for playback •T and other operations becomes the writing sequence used by the writing software.

②Second level

Terms

Bit rate

This expresses data volume per second, or (bits per second) units. The higher the rate, the more information is available to reproduce the sound. Using the same encoding method (such as MP3), the higher the rate, the better the sound.

Linear PCM (LPCM)/Pulse code modulation

This stands for linear pulse code modulation, which is the signal recording system used for music CDs and DVDs.

m3u

- Playlists created using the “WINAMP”software have a playlist file extension (.m3u).

ID3 tag

This is a method of embedding track-related information in an MP3 file. This embedded formation can include the track title, the artist's name, the album title, the music genre, the year of production, comments and other data. The contents can be freely edited using software with ID3 Tag editing functions.

Although the tags are restricted as to the ber of characters, the information can be viewed when the track is played back.

ISO9660 format

This is the international standard for the format logic of CD-ROM folders and files. For ISO9660 format, there are regulations for the following two levels.

Level 1:

The file name is in 8.3 format (the name consists of up to 8 characters, half-byte English capital letters and half-byte numerals and the “_”sign, with a file-extension of three characters).

Level 2:

The file name can have up to 31 character, cluding the separation mark "." and a file extension). Each folder contains less than 8 hierarchies.

Extended formats

Joliet:

File names can have up to 64 characters.

Romeo:

File names can have up to 128 characters.

MP3

MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an audio compression standard set by a working group (MPEG) of the ISO (International Standards Organization). MP3 is able to compress audio data to about 1/10th the level of a conventional disc.

nMS- ADPCM

This stands for Microsoft adaptive differential pulse code modulation, which is the signal recording system used for the multimedia software of Microsoft Corporation.

the Multi-session

^a Multi-session is a recording method that allows additional data to be recorded later. When recording data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW, etc., all data from beginning to end is treated as a single unit or session. Multi-sessions is a method of recording more than 2 sessions on one disc.

Number of quantization bits

The number of quantization bits is one factor in the overall sound quality; the higher the "bit-depth", the better the sound quality. However, increasing the bit-depth also increases the amount of data and therefore storage space required.

Additional Information

Packet write

This is a general term for a method of writing on CD-R, etc., at the time required for a file, just as is done with files on floppy or hard discs.

VBR

VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally speaking CBR (constant bit rate) is more widely used. But by flexibly adjusting the bit rate according to the needs of audio compression, it is possible to achieve compression-priority sound quality.

WAV

WAV is short for waveform. It is a standard audio file format for Windows®

WMA

WMA is short for Windows Media™Audio and refers to an audio compression technology that is developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by using Windows Media Player version 7 or later. Windows Media and the Windows logo are trademarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.
