MP3 music files
How to organize music files
In order to easily handle the large number of music files on a CD-ROM, you
can organize them in folders (“albums”).
The tracks of an album will be played in alphabetical order. If you want to
arrange them in a certain order, let the file names start with numbers.
For example:
001
-ONEWORLD.MP3
002
-FIRESTARTER.MP3
003
-DEEP.MP3
The albums will be arranged in alphabetical order. If albums are located in an
album, they will be played after this album. Albums without MP3 files will be
skipped.
If there are MP3 files which you did not put into an album, you will find them
in the album
Various
with album number
0
.
Various
is the first album that
will be played.
How to make a CD-ROM with MP3
Use your computer´s CD burner to record (“burn”) the music files from your
hard disc on a CD-ROM. Use either ISO 9660 disc format or UDF. Some CD
burner software like e. g. “DirectCD” support the UDF format.
Make sure that the file names of the MP3 files end with .mp3.

MP3 music files

of digital data of an audio CD significantly while maintaining CD-like sound
quality. With MP3 you can record up to 10 hours of CD-like music on a single
CD-ROM.
How to get music files
Either download legal music files from the Internet to your computer hard disk
or create them from your own audio CDs. For this, insert an audio CD into
your computer´s CD-ROM drive and convert the music using an appropriate
encoder software. To achieve a good sound quality, a bit rate of 128 kbps or
higher is recommended for MP3 music files.
