Notes on MP3 Recordings

About MP3
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the
MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call
files that have the ".mp3" file extension "MP3 files".
The recorder can not read an MP3 file that has a file
extension other than ".mp3".
MP3 Disc compatibility with this recorder is
limited as follows:
1. CD-R/RW physical format should be "ISO 9660" and
"JOLIET".
2. If you record MP3 files using the software which
cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example "Direct-
CD" etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We
recommend that you use "Easy-CD Creator", which
creates an ISO9660 or JOLIET file system.
3. Total number of files and folders on the disc should
be less than 1999.
This VCR/DVD Recorder requires discs/recordings to
meet certain technical standards in order to achieve
optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are auto-
matically set to these standards. There are many differ-
ent types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R
containing MP3 files) that require certain pre-existing
conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback.
Customers should also note that permission is
required in order to download MP3 files and music
from the Internet. Our company has no right to
grant such permission. Permission should always
be sought from the copyright owner.
