CD-R and CD-RW discs with mp3 format
"Sound"
files
In the case of discs that include
mp3 files, follow not only the general
recommendations
for CD-R and CD-
RW discs, but also the following
specific recommendations:
•
The format of your mp3 files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET. T hese files are compatible with DOS and
Windows applications aswell as with Mac OS.
•
Your mp3 files must have a name no longer than 12 characters as well as the suffix ':mp3': They must be
recorded in the form: title.mp3. Ensure that you do not leave spaces or use special characters such as (,,
/, \,= ,+) in the name.
•
Do not attempt to record protected rap3 files. Such files are coded and protected.
Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 kb/sec (kilobytes/second)
when recording rap3 files.
Sound quality with rap3 files basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression
you choose.
Getting audio CD quality sound requires an analog/digital
sampling rate, that is conversion to mp3
format, of at least 128 kb/sec and up to 160 kb/sec.
However, choosing higher rates, like 192 kb/sec or more, only rarely give even better sound quality.
Conversely, files with sampling rates below 128 kb/sec will not be played properly.
Important: The above recommendations cannot be taken as a guarantee that the DVD player will play mp3
recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality. You should note that certain technologies and methods for
mp3 file recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on your DVD player (that is degraded
sound quality and even, in some eases,inability of the player to read the file or files).
