Using the MP3/WMA Player
■ Writing files on a CD-R/RW or DVD±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.
■ Playing a CD-R/RW or DVD±R/RW disc having MP3/WMA or DivX files
When you insert a CD into the slot, the receiver determines it as a music CD, a CD-R/RW disc
having MP3/WMA files, or a CD-R/RW disc having DivX files. Also, when you insert a DVD into
the slot, the receiver determines it as a DVD video disc, a DVD±R/RW disc having MP3/WMA
files, or a DVD±R/RW disc having DivX files. The receiver selects the correct source mode
based on the disc contents, and starts to play the disc. If you insert a disc that contains the
mixed music CD data (CDDA), MP3/WMA files, and DivX files, the source mode is switched in
the order of CDDA, MP3/WMA files, and DivX files and they are played in this order. To switch
the current mode, just press the [BAND] button.
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.
