General notes on the Music Server 
 
 
What is the music server? 
  Your Audio-Telematic system allows 
you to copy audio CDs onto a music 
server, up to 2,500 songs on a 10 Gb 
hard disk. 
  The tracks on audio CDs (not MP3 or 
WMA) can be recorded onto the hard 
disk at approximately 4x speed and 
stored on the music server. 
  Refer to the "Recording a CD" section. 
  The music server then allows you to 
manage groups and lists of tracks.     
"Original" group, number 01:    
"Original Playlist" lists: 
   
"My Best" group, number 02: 
   
"New Group" group for the user, 
numbers 03 to 99:    
"My Favorites" list: 
   
"My Frequency" list: 
   
"User Playlist" list:    This is the location of 
the original playlist cre-
ated automatically (not manual) when a 
track of an audio CD is recorded. 
  It is not possible to change its name or 
delete it. 
  You can record up to 9999 playlists in 
this group.  
  This is the location of the 
playlists, etc... created

  The groups "My Favorites" and "My 
Frequency" are stored here.

lists created automatical-
ly (not manual) when an 
audio CD is recorded. 
  The lists and the artists can be renamed 
or deleted. The genres can also be set.  
  This is the location of a 
playlist of tracks selected 
by the user from the  original  
list. 
  If you delete a track from the original 
list, it will be deleted from the user list. 
  The list and the artist can be renamed

General notes on MP3/WMA CDs
   
Playing an MP3/WMA CD 
  When the MP3/WMA CD is 
inserted in the player, play-
ing of the tracks is automatic. 
  The tracks cannot be recorded 
onto the music server. 
  You can play CDs with up to 8 levels, 
255 folders and 400 fi les maximum.  
   
Copyright 
  Your Audio equipment may allow you 
to listen to music which is usually pro-
tected by copyright in accordance with 
current national and international stan-
dards. Please consult these standards 
and comply with them.  
     
Acceptance of the fi les 
  Some blank CDs may not be played 
by your equipment (quality, recording 
speed...). 
  When you burn a CD-R or CD-RW, 
select the ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet 
burning standard. 
  To obtain the best acoustic quality pos-
sible, select the lowest burning speed. 
  The MPEG1 and MPEG2 standards 
are accepted. 
  Transmission speeds between 32 and 
320 kbits/s and scans between 16 kHz 
and 48 kHz are accepted. 
  To display the title information (the name 
of the artist, the title of the album, etc...), 
the information contained in the ID3 Tags 
or the WMA Tags must be included in the 
MP3/WMA fi les burned onto the disc.      
What is the MP3/WMA fi le format? 
  MP3 is the abbreviation of MPEG-1 
Audio Layer 3 and MPG is the abbrevia-
tion of Motion Pictures Experts Group, a 
digital video data compression standard 
used on media such as video CDs. 
  The MP3 compression reduces the 
number of bytes in a song by eliminating 
the long sound waves in the range of fre-
quencies which are imperceptible to the 
human ear, so producing high quality au-
dio fi les with a low volume of data. 
  This compression divides the size of 
the content of a conventional audio CD 
by approximately 10, which means that 
the content of 10 audio CDs can be 
recorded onto a single CD-R or CD-RW. 
  WMA is the abbreviation of Windows 
Media Audio, another audio data com-
pression standard offered by Microsoft. 
  It can be used to create and save audio 
fi les at a compression rate higher than 
that of the MP3 format.

ration are trademarks registered in the
