HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is an interface to enable the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single
connector. Using HDMI, the DVD player transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid
picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.
HDMI connection description
HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).
- Though the player uses a HDMI cable, the player outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.
- If TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), snow noise appears on the
screen.
●
Why does Samsung use HDMI?
Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to
a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD player) or an analog-to-digital
converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and
signal loss.

CD-R MP3/WMA file
When you record MP3 or WMA files on CD-R,
please refer to the following.
- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least
64Kbps when recording WMA files.
- Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660 or
JOLIET format.
Sound quality with WMA files basically depends
on the rate of compression/decompression you
choose.
ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files are
compatible with Microsoft's DOS and Windows,
and with Apple's Mac. This format is the most
widely used.
Getting CD audio sound requires an
analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to
WMA format, of at least 64Kbps and up to
192Kbps.
- When naming your MP3 or WMA files, do not
exceed 8 characters, and enter “.mp3, .wma”
as the file extension.
Conversely, files with decompression rates below
64Kbps or over 192Kbps will not be played
properly.
General name format : Title.mp3. or Title.wma.
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: (.,/,\,=,+).
- Do not try recording copyright protected MP3
files.
Certain "secured" files are encrypted and code
protected to prevent illegal copying. These files
are of the following types: Windows MediaTM
(registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and
SDMITM (registered trade mark of The SDMI
Foundation). You cannot copy such files.
- 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 CD audio sound requires an
analog/digital sampling rate, that is 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. Conversely, files with decompression
rates below 128 Kbps will not be played properly.
- Important:
The above recommendations cannot be taken as
a guarantee that the DVD-VCR will play MP3
recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality.
You should note that certain technologies and
methods for MP3 file recording on CD-Rs
prevent optimal playback of these files on your
DVD-VCR (degraded sound quality and in some
cases, inability of the player to read the files).
- This unit can play a maximum of 3000 files and
300 folders per disc.
