Tips for making your own discs
The X008U/INE-W957HD plays DVD Video, DivX
®
, Audio CD
and has a built in MP3/WMA/AAC decoder.
The following information is designed to help you create your own
music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3/WMA/AAC encoded CD-R/
RW files).
What is the difference between an Audio and MP3/WMA/AAC
CD?
An Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy
in the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)/
WMA (Windows Media Audio)/AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) is
a data file that uses a compression scheme to reduce the size of the
music file*.
* If the first session on a disc containing both CD-DA data and
MP3/WMA/AAC data is a CD-DA file, only CD-DA files will
be played.
Multisession CD-R/RW:
Once a recording has been stopped, this is considered one session.
If the disc is not closed (finalized), additional data may be added.
Once this additional data has been recorded, this becomes a
“multisession” CD.
Properly formatted MP3/WMA/AAC Discs:
Use ISO9660 formatting to insure proper playback. You may use
standard ISO naming Level 1 (8.3 DOS standard), Level 2
(32 characters) or Joliet (Windows or Macintosh long filenames)
file naming conventions*.
* Please consult the Owner’s manual for additional information.
