Compressed Audio Files (MP3 and WMA)

The DVD player is capable of playing MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3) and WMA (Windows Media Audio) files from a CD Data disc (usually a CD-R or CD-RW).

• The DVD player always uses the file extension to determine the audio format, so MP3 files must always end with the extension .mp3 or .MP3 and WMA files must always end with the extension .wma or .WMA . To prevent incorrect playback, do not use these extensions for any other types of files.

• For MP3 files, only version 1 ID3 tag data (such as artist name, track title, album, etc.) are supported.

• Any file that is copy protected (such as those downloaded from many online music stores) will not play.

The DVD player will automatically skip the file and begin playing the next available file.

• Other compression formats such as AAC, MP3 Pro, Ogg Vorbis, and ATRAC3 will not play. The DVD player will automatically skip the file and begin playing the next available file.

• If you are creating your own files, the recommended fixed bit rate for MP3 files is between 96 and 192Kbps and the recommended fixed bit rate for WMA files is between 64 and 192Kbps. Variable bit rates are also supported. For both formats, the recommended sample rate is either 44.1kHz or 48kHz.

• To change the current file, use the remote control’s or DVD player’s the next file, or button to advance to the next file, or the of the current or button to return to the start of the current or previous file.

• To change the current directory, use the remote control’s PROG Up and Down buttons.
