Notes on MP3 Files About MP3 z zAn MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”. z zThe DVD/VCR Receiver can not read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than “.mp3”. MP3 Disc compatibility with this DVD/VCR Receiver is limited as follows: z zSampling Frequency : only at 44.1kHz z zBit rate : within 32 - 320kbps z zCD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660” z zIf you record MP3 files using the software which can- not create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “UDF” etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We recom- mend that you use an ISO9660 file system. z zAsingle session disc requires MP3 files in the first track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it cannot playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3 files, format all the data in the disc or use a new one. z zFile names should be named using 8 letters or less and must incorporate “.mp3” extension e.g. “********.mp3”. z zDo not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc. z zTotal number of files on the disc should be less than 650. This DVD/VCR Receiver requires discs/recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are auto- matically set to these standards. There are many differ- ent types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 files). That require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback. Customers should also note that permission is required in order to download MP3 files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.
