Writing MP3/WMA Files On a CD-R/RW Disc
MP3/WMA files can be recorded on CD-R/RW by using a CD-R/RW drive connected to a
computer. Record by setting the recording format of the recording software to ISO9660 level 1
or level 2 (not including extension format).
Select CD-ROM ( mode1 ) or CD-ROM XA ( mode2 ) for the disc format.

When Playing Back CD-R/RW
Insert a CD-R/RW disc having recorded MP3/WMA files. When you load a disc, the system
automatically determines whether it is a music CD or a CD-R/RW disc having MP3/WMA files
and plays it correctly. However, depending on the type of disc being used, the disc may not
play.
CAUTION
●
The 128K bps fixed bit rate and 44.1-kHz sampling frequency are recommended to use to have
a high quality of playback sound.
●
Note that some CD-R and CD-RW discs may not be read due to their characteristics.
●
Because there are many types of MP3/WMA encoding software available, including
commercial and freeware programs, audio quality may deteriorate, noise may be generated
when playing starts and some recordings may not play, depending on the condition of the
encoder and the file format.
●
When files other than MP3/WMA files are recorded on a disc, the system may take some time
to recognize the disc and it may not play the disc.
