Before playing MP3 or WMA (Windows Media
®

There are many music distribution sites on the Internet allowing you
to download music files in MP3 or WMA format. The music (files)
downloaded from such sites can be stored on CD-R or CD-RW discs
and played on the this CD player.
According to copyright laws, recordings you have made
should only be used for your personal enjoyment and must
not be used in other ways without the consent of the
copyright holder.

This CD player is compatible with “MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3”
standards (sampling frequency of 44.1 and 48 kHz). It is not
compatible with “MPEG-2 Audio Layer-3”, “MPEG-2.5 Audio
Layer-3”, MP1 or MP2 standards.
The signals are output with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.
When writing MP3 files on a CD-R or CD-RW disc, set the writing
software’s format to “ISO9660 Level 1”. The files may not play
properly if they are recorded in other formats. Also note that with
some writing software it is not possible to record in ISO9660
format. If so, use a different program allowing you to record in
ISO9660 format.
•With MP3 files, the higher the bit rate, the better the sound
quality. The compatible bit rate range is 32 to 320 kbps for MP3
files, 64 to 160 kbps for WMA files. We recommend using MP3
files with bit rates of 128 kbps or greater on the this CD player.
Be sure to add the extensions “.MP3” or “.WMA” to MP3 or
WMA files, respectively. Files with extensions other than
“.MP3” or “.WMA” or files without extensions cannot be
played. (On Macintosh computers, MP3 files can be played by
giving the extension “.MP3” after the file name consisting up a
maximum of 8 alphanumeric characters and storing the files on a
CD-R or CD-RW disc.)
This CD player is not compatible with packet write software or
playlists.
The time may not be displayed properly when searching or
pausing during variable bit rate playback.
