MP3/WMA Play  
Use a decompression transfer rate of at least  
128Kbps when recording MP3 files.  
Program/Random playback  
Sound quality with MP3 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 128Kbps and up to 160Kbps.  
However, choosing higher rates, like 192Kbps or  
more, only rarely give better sound quality.

Press the MODE button in STOP mode to switch  
between the RANDOM and PROGRAM modes.  
PROGRAM

Conversely, files with decompression rates below  
128Kbps will not be played properly.  
Use a decompression transfer rate of at least  
64Kbps when recording WMA files.  
Sound quality with WMA 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  
WMA format, of at least 64Kbps and up to 192Kbps.  
Conversely, files with decompression rates below  
64Kbps or over 192Kbps will not be played properly.  
Press the REPEAT button in PLAY mode to hear  
only music continuously and press it once again  
to release.  
CD-R MP3/WMA discs  
Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.  
Certain "securized" files are encrypted and code  
protected to prevent illegal copying.  
These files are of the following types: Windows  
MediaTM (registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc)  
and SDMITM (registered trade mark of The SDMI  
Foundation). You cannot copy such files.  
When playing CD-R/MP3 or WMA discs, please  
follow all the recommendations for CD-R above,  
plus the comments below:  
Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660 or  
JOLIET format.  
Important :  
ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files are  
compatible with Microsoft's DOS and Windows, and  
with Apple's Mac. These two formats are the most  
widely used.  
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  
(degraded sound quality and in some cases,  
inability of the player to read the files).  
When naming your MP3 or WMA files do not  
exceed 8 characters, and place ".mp3, .wma" as  
the file extension.  
General name format of: Title.mp3. or Title.wma.  
When composing your title, make sure that you use  
8 characters or less, have no spaces in the name,  
and avoid the use of special characters including:  
(.,/,\,=,+).  
This unit can play a maximum of 500 files and 300  
folders per disc.
