MP3 and WMA File Playback
MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer-3) or WMA(Windows media audio) is a standardtechnology and format for compressingaudio data. This allows a more efficientuse of the media.
You can play MP3 files recorded onCD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW formats. Thedisc must be in the ISO 9660 level 1 or level2 format, or Joliet or Romeo in theexpansion format. You can also use a discrecorded in multi session.
ISO 9660 Format
This is the most common internationalstandard for the logical format of files andfolders on a CD-ROM.
There are several specification levels. InLevel 1, file names must be in the 8.3format (no more than eight characters inthe name, no more than three charactersin the extension .MP3 and .WMA) and incapital letters.
Folder names can be no longer than eightcharacters. There can be no more thaneight folder levels (trees). Level 2specifications allow file names up to 31characters long.
Each folder can have up to eight trees.
For Joliet or Romeo in the expansionformat, consider these restrictions whenconfiguring your CD writing software.
Multi Session
This is a recording method that enablesadding of data using the track-at-oncemethod.
Conventional CDs begin at a CD controlarea called the lead-in and end at an areacalled lead-out. A multi session CD is a CDhaving multiple sessions, with eachsegment from lead-in to lead-out regardedas a single session.
CD-Extra: The format that records audio(audio CD data) as tracks on session 1, andrecords data as tracks on session 2.
Mixed CD: In this format, data is recordedas track 1 and audio (audio CD data) isrecorded as track 2.
File Formats
With formats other than ISO 9660 level 1and level 2, folder names or file names maynot be displayed correctly.
When naming, be sure to add the fileextension .MP3 or .WMA to the file name.
If you put the extension .MP3 or .WMA toa file other than MP3 or WMA, the unitcannot recognize the file correctly and willgenerate random noise that could damageyour speakers.
The following discs take a longer time tostart playback.
•A disc recorded with complicated treestructure.
