MP3 / WMA file compatibility with this unit is limited as
follows:
• Sampling frequency: within 8 - 48 kHz (MP3),
within 32 - 48kHz (WMA)
• Bit rate: within 8 - 320kbps (MP3),
32 - 192kbps (WMA)
• The unit cannot read an MP3/WMA file that has a file extension
other than “.mp3” / “.wma”.
• CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660
• If you record MP3 / WMA files using software that cannot create
a file system (eg. Direct-CD) it is impossible to playback MP3 /
WMA files. We recommend that you use Easy-CD Creator, which
creates an ISO 9660 file system.
• File names should have a maximum of 16 letters and must incor-
porate an .mp3 or .wma extension.
• They should not contain special letters such as / ? * : “ < > l etc.
• The total number of files on the disc should be less than 650.
• This unit requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical
standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-
recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There
are many different types of recordable disc formats (including
CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and these require certain
pre-existing conditions (see above) to ensure compatible play-
back.
