MP3 OVERVIEW

MP3 Overview
• MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3 and refers to an audio compression technology stan-
dard. This product allows playback of MP3 files on CD-ROM CD-R or CD-RW discs. The unit
can read MP3 files written in the format compliant with ISO 9660. However it does not support
the MP3 data written by the method
• of packet write. The unit can not read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than „.mp3"
• If you play a non-MP3 file that has the „.mp3" extension, you may hear some noise.
• In this manual, we refer to what are called „MP3 file" and „folder" in PC terminology as „Track"
and „Album", respectively. Maximum number of directory level is 8, including the root directo-
ry.
• Maximum number of files and folders per disc is 1000. The unit may not play tracks in the
order of Track numbers. The unit plays only the audio Tracks if a disc contains both audio
tracks and MP3 files. When playing a disc of 8 kbps or VBR*, the elapsed playing time in the
display window will not be correct and also the intro play may not
• function properly. *VBR: Variable Bit Rate.
Note on creating your own CD-Rs or CD-RWs containing MP3 files
• To enjoy high quality sound, we recommend converting to MP3 files with a sampling frequen-
cy of 44.1 kHz and a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps. Do not store more than 1000 MP3 files per
disc. For ISO 9660-compliant format, the maximum allowable depth of nested folders is 8,
including the root directory (folder). When CD-R disc is used, playback is possible only for
discs which have been finalized. Make sure that when MP3 CD-R is burned that it is for-
matted as a data disc and NOT as an audio disc. You should not write non-MP3 files or un-
needed folders along with MP3 files on the CD-R otherwise it takes a long time until the unit
starts
• to play MP3 files. With some CD-R media, data may not be properly written depending on
their manufacturing quality. In this case, data may not be
• reproduced correctly. High quality CD-R disc is recommended. Up to 16 characters are dis-
played for the name of an album or a track. ID3 TAG version 1.x is required. Note that the unit
may not play tracks in the order that you wrote them to the disc.
