    MP3/WMA Play
    • Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format.
    ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files are compatible with Microsofts DOS and Windows, and with
    Apples Mac. These two formats are the most widely used.
    • When naming your MP3 or WMA files do not exceed 8 characters, and place .mp3, .wma as the file
    extension.
    General name format of: 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: (.,/,\,=,+).
    • 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, 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.
    •Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 64Kbps when recording WMA files.
    Sound quality with WMA files basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression you choose. Getting
    audio CD quality sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to WMA format, of at least
    64Kbps and up to 192Kbps.
    Conversely, files with decompression rates  below 64Kbps or over 192Kbps 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 the
    following types: Windows Media
    TM(registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and SDMITM(registered trade mark of
    The SDMI Foundation). You cannot copy such files.
    • 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.
    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 player to read the files).
    • This unit can play a maximum of 500 files and 300 folders per disc. When you record MP3 files on the CD-R, please refer to the following.

    About Speaker Setup
    1 Center SpeakerIdeally, the center speaker should be positioned at the same height as the front speakers, but it may be
    placed above or below your TV set. 
    2 Surround SpeakersIt is better to place these speakers behind your listening position, facing slightly downwards, about 24 to 35
    inches (60-90 cm) above your ear.
    If your listening position is too close to the rear wall, place these speakers at the left and right of the listening 
    position so that they face each other.
    3 Front SpeakersIt is better to place these speakers so that their tweeters are at your ear level, facing inwards (about 45°)  
    toward you.
    4 SubwooferThe position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.
    ➢Please do not set up the Subwoofer near by TV or monitor because the Subwoofer is not fully 
    magnetic shielded. Ideal Speaker Arrangement
