Notes on MP3/DivX
What is MP3/DivX?
MP3:
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) is the compression format of
digital audio. It is developed by MPEG (Motion Picture Experts
Group). Using this compression format, you can record the con-
tents of about 10 music CDs on a single CD (This figure refers to
data recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of
128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).
DivX:
The video compression format developed by DivX, Inc.
compresses video files without any considerable loss of video
quality.
Note:
¡
MP3/DivX encoding and CD writing software programs are not
supplied with this unit.
