When playing CD-R MP3 discs, please follow the recommendations below:  
With the unit in Stop mode, press the SETUP button  
on the remote.  
1
Your MP3 files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format.  
ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 files are compatible with Microsoft's DOS and Windows, and with  
Apple's Mac. These two formats are the most widely used.  
Player Menu : Setup of the Display Language  
Use the Player preference menu to select the  
language for the players on-screen displays.  
When naming your MP3 files do not exceed 8 characters, and place ".mp3" as the file extension.  
General name format of: Title.mp3. When composing your title, make sure that you use 8 characters or  
less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of special characters including: (.,/ ,\ ,=,+).  
Disc Menu : Setup of the Menu Language  
Use the Menu preference menu to select the language you want a  
DVD’s disc menu to be displayed in.  
Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 Kbps when recording MP3 files.  
Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on the rate of compression/ decompression you choose.  
Getting audio CD quality sound requires an analog/ digital sampling rate (conversion to MP3 format) of at  
least 128 Kbps and up to 160 Kbps. However, choosing higher rates, like 192 Kbps or more, only rarely  
give better sound quality.  
Audio : Setup of the Audio Language  
Use the Audio preference menu to select the soundtrack language.  
Subtitle : Setup of the Subtitle Language  
Use the Subtitle preference menu to select the language the discs  
subtitles are to be displayed in.  
Conversely, files with sampling rates below 128 Kbps will not be played properly.  
Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.  
Certain "securized" files are encrypted and code protected to prevent illegal copying. These files are of  
Parental : Setup of the Parental Level  
TM  
the following types: Windows MediaTM (registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and SDMI (registered  
Allows users to set the level necessary to prevent children from  
viewing unsuitable movies such as those with violence, adult subject  
matter, etc.  
trade mark of The SDMI Foundation). You cannot copy such files.  
Your DVD player only accepts one level of file directory.  
Consequently you must choose:

Display Options : Setup of the Display Options  
Use to select which type of screen you want to watch and several  
display options.  
-either to save all your MP3 recording files at the root of the disc;  
-and/ or create folders in the directory for each artist or music type (e.g.classical, rock, jazz, etc)  
Important: The above recommendations cannot be taken as a guarantee that the DVD player will play  
MP3 recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality.  
Use the UP/ DOWN buttons on the remote to access  
the different features.

You should note that certain technologies and methods for MP3 file recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal  
playback of these files on your DVD player (degraded sound quality and in some cases, inability of the

To make the setup screen disappear after setting up, press the
