Playing MP3/WMA discs
The RDV-03 can play MP3 or WMA, from
most CD-R and CD-RW discs. These discs,
often recorded on computer drives, have a
file structure similar to computer discs, with
files stored in folders.
Here are few tips when recording your own
discs:
• Select “ISO 9660” as the disc format.
• Record MP3 files at a 44.1 kHz sampling
rate, using the 128 kbps data transfer rate.
Files must have an .MP3 file extension.
• Record WMA files with the copyright
feature off with a bit rate of 64 kbps or
higher. Files recorded at less than 48
kpbs cannot be played. Files must have
a .WMA file extension.
• The player does not support “packet writ-
ing (UDF file)” discs.
• The player does not support the ID3 tag
and WMA tag.
• The player supports discs recorded with
multiple sessions.
• Some discs may not play due to disc char-
acteristics or recording conditions.
Selecting files for playback and other features
are made using a special Control menu.
Control Menu
Whenever a disc containing MP3, MPEG or
JPEG files is inserted in the RDV-03 or when
the PLAY button is pressed, the CONTROL
menu appears.
On the left side of the menu is a list of
Groups
on the disc. When a
Group
is selected, the
list of
Tracks
in that folder is displayed down
the right side of the screen.
To move between the two sides of the screen
(

CURSOR

the right column until the desired

.

gins the current Track from the beginning.

Group

within that
Group
using the NUMERIC but-
tons on the remote.

Repeat Play

repeat a single
Track
, all the
Tracks
in the cur-
rent

Playing JPEG discs
The RDV-03 can display JPEG files from most
CD-R and CD-RW discs. These discs, often
recorded on computer drives, have a file
structure similar to computer discs, with files
stored in folders. Here are few tips when
creating your own discs:
• Select “ISO 9660” as the disc format.
• Save your files in the baseline JPEG format
with a .JPG extension.
• We recommend sizing your images at
640 x 480 pixels. Larger images take
longer to display. The maximum horizon-
tal resolution is 2400 pixels.
• The player does not support “packet writ-
ing (UDF file)” discs.
• The player supports discs recorded with
multiple sessions.
• Some discs may not play due to disc char-
acteristics or recording conditions.
Selecting images for display is done using a
special Control menu.
