Notes on MP3/WMA Recordings
About MP3
•
An 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”.
•
The VCR/DVD Recorder can not read an MP3 file
that has a file extension other than “.mp3”.
About WMA (Window Media Audio) Files
•
A WMA file is made using Microsoft audio
compression technology.
•
WMA (Windows Media Audio) offers double the
audio compression of the MP3 format.
MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this
recorder is limited as follows:
•
CD-R/RW physical format should be “ISO 9660”
and “JOLIET”.
•
If you record MP3 files using the software which
cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example
“Direct-CD” etc., it is impossible to playback MP3
files. We recommend that you use “Easy-CD
Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 or JOLIET file
system.
•
The total number of files and folders on the disc are
free but the total number of files and folders on the
folder should be less than 999.
This VCR/DVD Recorder 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 or WMA 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/WMA files and
music from the Internet. Our company has no right
to grant such permission. Permission should
always be sought from the copyright owner.
