follows:
• Sampling frequency: within 8 - 48 kHz (MP3),
within 32 - 48kHz (WMA)

32 - 192kbps (WMA)
• The player cannot read an MP3/WMA file that has a file extension
other than “.mp3” / “.wma”.
• CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660
• If you record MP3 / WMA files using software that cannot create a file
system (eg. Direct-CD) it is impossible to playback MP3 / WMA files.
We recommend that you use Easy-CD Creator, which creates an ISO
9660 file system.
• File names should have a maximum of 8 letters and must incorporate
an .mp3 or .wma extension.
• They should not contain special letters such as / ? * : “ < > l etc.
• The total number of files on the disc should be less than 650.

This DVD player requires discs and recordings to meet certain
technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quali-
ty. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these stan-
dards. There are many different types of recordable disc for-
mats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and these
require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to ensure
compatible playback.
