Playing an Audio CD or MP3 Disc
The DVD+VCR can play MP3 formatted recordings on
CD-ROM, CD-R, or CD-RW discs.
MP3 disc compatibility with this player is limited
as follows:
• Sampling frequency: within 8 - 48 kHz
• Bit rate: within 32 - 320kbps
• The player cannot read an MP3 file that has a file
extension other than “.mp3”.
• CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660
• If you record MP3 files using software that cannot
create a file system (eg. Direct-CD) it is impossible
to playback MP3 files. We recommend that you use
Easy-CD Creator, which creates an ISO 9660 file
system.
Audio CD

screen. Press 3 / 4 to select a track then press

limited as follows:
• Depending upon the size and number of JPEG
files, it could take a long time for the DVD+VCR to
read the disc’s contents. If you don’t see an on-
screen display after several minutes, some of the
files may be too large — reduce the resolution of
the JPEG files to less than 5760 (Horizontal) x
4608 (Vertical) pixels and burn another disc.
• The total number of contens on the disc should be
less than 1500 files and 300 folders.
• Some discs may be incompatible due to a different
recording format or the condition of disc.
• Ensure that all the selected files have the “.jpg”
extensions when copying into the CD layout.
• If the files have “.jpe” or “.jpeg” extensions, please
rename them as “.jpg” file.
Tips:
• Information and user guidance regarding the current image
is displayed in the lower part of the screen. You can toggle
this bar on and off using RETURN.
• There are three Slide Speed options
:
>>> (Fast), >> (Normal) and > (Slow)
Use 342 1 to highlight the Speed. Then, use 2 / 1 to
select the option you want to use then press ENTER/OK.
• On a disc with MP3 and JPEG you can switch MP3 and
JPEG. Press TITLE and MUSIC or PHOTO word on top of
the menu is highlighted.
• File names without “.jpg” extension will not be able
to be read by this DVD+VCR. Even though the files
are shown as JPEG image files in Windows
