Playing MP3 Discs
What is MP3?
MP3 is a format for storing digital audio. An audio CD-quality song can be compressed into MP3 format with
very little loss of quality, while taking up much less space.
CD-R or a CD-RW discs that have been encoded in MP3 format can be played on your DVD player. In this
manual, CD-R and CD-RW discs will be referred to as MP3 discs. MP3 files, or songs, are referred to as
titles .
Obtaining MP3 files
There are two ways to obtain MP3 files:
• By using computer software to encode MP3 files from an audio CD – You can download the software
necessary to encode MP3 files from the internet.
• Downloading MP3 files from the internet – There are many internet sites that allow you to download
MP3 files fro free, and many sites that require a fee.
Creating an MP3 Disc on Your Computer
Your DVD player handles MPEG-1, layer III audio. If you encode your own MP3 files from an audio CD,
avoid using the features of MPEG-2, such as the 22kHz sampling frequency.
Be sure to make a data CD rather than an audio CD. If you make an audio CD, you will lose the extra
features and compression of MP3.
When you burn a CD, take the following steps to get optimal use of the CD for playing in your DVD player.
• In your CD burning software, select ISO-9660 for the file system.
Note: The Joliet file system is not recommended. Using the Joliet file system may result in shortened file names.
