Combinations of sampling frequencies and bit rates
2. When the battery is fully charged and the gigabeat
®
is operated at normal
temperature (25×C) at the factory-set volume level. These continuous
playback times vary depending on the operating conditions, ambient
operating temperature, and number of times the battery has been charged,
among others. These specifications are provided only as a reference and
are not guaranteed. Even within the specified operating conditions, using
the gigabeat
®
at lower temperatures will shorten the continuous playback
time.
3. Playing data with the H2C Technology (Harmonics) or playing WAV
audio data or WMA 9 Lossless data consumes considerable battery power.
Accordingly, the continuous playback time will become significantly
shorter compared to when Harmonics is turned off or MP3 or WMA data
is played.
4. The color LCD is designed and manufactured using high-precision
technology. Some pixels do not turn on or always remain on, but this does
not indicate malfunction.
5. To operate the gigabeat
®
in the USB 2.0 mode, a USB 2.0 interface must
be pre-installed on the computer. The gigabeat
®
functions as a USB 1.1
device when connected to a USB 1.1 interface.
Combinations of sampling frequencies and bit rates
The combinations of sampling frequencies and bit rates at which
audio data can be played on the gigabeat
®
are shown below. Audio
data may not be played properly if any other combination is used.
MP3 (stereo):
Sampling frequency: 8 kHz, 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz,
48 kHz
Bit rate: 32 kbps ~ 320 kbps
MP3 (monaural)
Sampling frequency: 8 kHz, 11 kHz, 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 32 kHz,
44.1 kHz
Bit rate: 16 kbps ~ 64 kbps
WMA (stereo)
Sampling frequency: 8 kHz, 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz,
48 kHz
Bit rate: CBR 32 kbps ~ 320 kbps, VBR 32 kbps ~ 355 kbps
