About Bit Rates
In OpenMG Jukebox, the bit rate for recording an audio CD can be chosen from
among 132 kbps/105 kbps/66 kbps. The sound quality and available recording time
after the conversion will be different depending on the selected bit rate. A Higher
value makes the sound quality better, but the size of the recorded data file will be
bigger thus shortening the total check-out time available on your CLIE handheld.
Likewise, a lower value means lower sound quality, but lengthens the total check-out
time available on your CLIE handheld.
When you use an optional 128 MB ”MG Memory Stick” media, you can record for
approximately the following length of time:
• When you record at 132 kbps: approx. 120 min.
• When you record at 105 kbps: approx. 160 min.
• When you record at 66 kbps: approx. 240 min.

Notes on “Memory Stick” media
What is “Memory Stick” media?
“Memory Stick” media is a new compact, portable and versatile Integrated
Circuit recording medium with a data capacity that exceeds that of a floppy
disk. The “Memory Stick” media is specially designed for exchanging and
sharing digital data among “Memory Stick” media compatible products.
Because it is removable, a “Memory Stick” media can also be used for
external data storage.
Types of “Memory Stick” media
There are two types of “Memory Stick” media:
– “MagicGate Memory Stick” media (hereafter referred to as MG Memory
Stick) (white) that is equipped with “MagicGate” copyright protection
technology.
– “Memory Stick” media (purple) that is not equipped with “MagicGate”
copyright protection technology.
To play ATRAC 3 format audio files that are recorded or converted by
OpenMG jukebox software on your CLIE handheld, you have to use a
“MagicGate Memory Stick” media. Be sure to use “MG Memory Stick”
media with the
logo.
When you play MP3 format audio files, you can use normal “Memory Stick”
media.
For playback of ATRAC 3 and/
or MP3 format audio files

Notes on “Memory Stick” media
What is “MagicGate”?
“MagicGate” is a copyright protection technology for the “MG Memory Stick” media
and compliant products, such as your CLIE handheld. Authentication ensures that
protected content is transferred only between compliant devices and an “MG Memory
Stick” media, and that protected content is recorded and transferred in an encrypted
format to prevent unauthorized copying or playback.
Notes on use
To avoid damaging data, do not
• remove the “Memory Stick” media or unplug the AC power adaptor
during reading or writing of data.
• use the “Memory Stick” media in a location subject to static electricity or
electric noise.
TOC reading time depends on the number of songs
When you start Audio Player, the application starts reading the TOC
information including the song name, artist name and so on of the “Memory
Stick” media.
Depending on the number of songs stored in the “Memory Stick” media, it
may take a few seconds to do this. You cannot operate Audio Player while it
is reading the TOC information; this is not malfunction.
On formatting the “Memory Stick” media
The “Memory Stick” media is shipped with a FAT format as the standard
format.
To format the “Memory Stick” media, please use devices compatible with
the “Memory Stick” media. For details, refer to the Operating Instructions
manual.
No t e
If you format your “Memory Stick” media using your computer, further operation
with your CLIE handheld is not guaranteed. Format the “Memory Stick” using the
CLIE handheld according to the procedures in the Operating Instructions manual.

The check-in (transferring digital audio files to your computer)/out
(transferring digital audio files to your CLIE handheld) procedure differs
from the HotSync operation in several ways.

Palm OS compatible handheld.
• You can perform the HotSync operation even when your CLIE handheld
