NOTES:
• The DVD-2910 is compatible with the "MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3" standards (sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz
or 48 kHz). It is not compatible with such other standards as "MPEG-2 Audio Layer 3", "MPEG-2.5 Audio
Layer 3", MP1, MP2, etc.
• It may not be possible to play some CD-R/RW discs due to disc properties, dirt, warping, etc.
• The digital signals output when playing MP3 files are MP3 signals converted into PCM, regardless of whether
the audio output presetting is set to "normal" or "PCM". The signals are output with the same sampling
frequency as that of the music source.
• In general, the higher an MP3 file's bit rate, the better the sound quality. On the DVD-2910, we recommend
using MP3 files recorded with bit rates of 128 kbps or greater.
• MP3 files may not be played in the expected order, since the writing software may change the position of
the folders and the order of the files when writing them on the CD-R/RW.
• Programmed playback is not possible with MP3 discs.
• When writing MP3 files on CD-R/RW discs, select "ISO9660 level 1" as the writing software format. This
may not be possible with some types of writing software. For details, refer to the writing software's usage
instructions.
• The number of files playable with the DVD-2910 is approximately 600 or less.
• With the DVD-2910 it is possible to display folder names and file names on the screen like titles. The DVD-
2910 can display up to 8 characters, consisting of numbers, capital letters, and the "_" (underscore) mark.
• If recorded in a format other than "ISO9660 level 1", normal display and playback may not be possible. In
addition, folder and file names including other symbols will not be displayed properly.
• Be sure to add the extension ".MP3" to MP3 files. Files cannot be played if they have any extension other
than ".MP3" or if they have no extension. (with Macintosh computers, MP3 files can be played by adding
the extension ".MP3" after the file name consisting of up to 8 capital or numbers and recording the files
on the CD-R/RW.)
• Do not apply stickers, tape, etc., to either the label side or the signal side of CD-R/RW discs. If adhesive
gets on the surface of a disc, the disc may get stuck inside the DVD-2910 and be impossible to eject.
• The DVD-2910 is not compatible with packet write software.
• The DVD-2910 is not compatible with ID3-Tag.
• The DVD-2910 is not compatible with play lists.
• The DVD-2910 is not compatible with MP3 PRO.
• Do not play CD-R/RW discs containing any files other than music CD files (in CD-DA format), WMA, MP3
and JPEG files. Doing so may result in malfunction or damage, depending on the type of file.

the title names and the artist names. (One folder has a capacity of up to 99 files.)
• Recorded discs with no more than 99 files per folder are recommended. Multiple folder configurations are
possible; however, depending on the configuration, recognition and playback of all the folders and files
might not be possible.

within 10 sessions.

tracks (179 files) per folder. When 179 tracks are exceeded, while the unit is stopped, use the cursor
buttons at the disc information screen to select the files, and use the play button or the ENTER button to
