Tips for making your own CDs
The IVA-D900R plays DVD Video, Video CD, Audio CD and has
a built in MP3 decoder.
The following information is designed to help you create your
own music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3 encoded CD-R/RW
files).
What is the difference between an Audio and MP3 CD?
An Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy
in the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer
3) is a data file that uses a compression scheme to reduce the size
of the music file.*
Hybrid Audio CD and Data (MP3) CD-R/RW discs:
The IVA-D900R can read either sector on the disc. Choose
MixDisc CD to play the CD audio section or MixDisc MP3 to
play the MP3 section.*
Multisession CD-R/RW:
Once a recording has been stopped, this is considered one
session. If the disc is not closed (finalized), additional data may
be added. Once this additional data has been recorded, this
becomes a “multisession” CD. The IVA-D900R can only read
multisession DATA Formatted discs (MP3 files - Not Audio CD
files).
MP3 ID3 Tag Information:
The IVA-D900R read and displays MP3 ID3v1 tag information.
MP3 files created with ID3v2 tag information can be played back
but the tag info cannot be read or displayed.
Properly formatted MP3 Discs:
Use ISO9660 formatting to insure proper playback. You may use
standard ISO naming Level 1 (8.3 DOS standard), Level 2 (32
characters) or Joliet, (Windows or Macintosh long filenames) file
naming conventions.*
*Please consult the Owner’s manual for additional information.
