CD-R MP3/WMA file
When you record MP3 or WMA les on CD-R, please refer to the following.
- Your MP3 or WMA les should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format.
ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA les are compatible with Microsoft's DOS and Windows, and with Apple's Mac. This format is the most widely used.
- When naming your MP3 or WMA les, do not exceed 8 characters, and enter ".mp3, .wma" as the le extension.
General name format : Title.mp3. or Title.wma. When composing your title, make sure that you use 8 characters or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of special characters including: (.,/,\=,+).
- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 Kbps when recording MP3° les.
Sound quality with MP3 les basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression you choose. Getting CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to MP3 format, of at least 128 Kbps and up to 160 Kbps. However, choosing higher rates, like 192 Kbps or more, only rarely give better sound quality. Conversely, les with decompression rates below 128 Kbps will not be played properly.
- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 64Kbps when recording WMA les.
Sound quality with WMA les basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression you choose.
Getting CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to WMA format, of at least 64Kbps and up to 192Kbps. Conversely, les with decompression rates below 64Kbps or over 192Kbps will not be played properly.
- Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 les.
Certain "secured" les are encrypted and code protected to prevent illegal copying. These les are of the following types: Windows Media (registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and SDMI (registered trade mark of The SDMI Foundation). You cannot copy such les.
- 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 le recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these les on your DVD player (degraded sound quality and in some cases, inability of the player to read the les).
- This unit can play a maximum of 500 les and 500 folders per disc.
