Notes on MP3/WMA Recordings

About MP3

An MP3 ﬁle is audio data compressed by using

the MPEG1 audio layer-3 ﬁle-coding scheme.We

call ﬁles that have the“.mp3”ﬁle extension“MP3

ﬁles”.

The recorder can not read an MP3 ﬁle that has a

ﬁle extension other than“.mp3”.

3. Press ENTER (b).

A list of ﬁles in the folder appears.

About WMA(Window Media Audio)

Note

An WMA ﬁle is a Microsoft audio compression

technology.

If the icon displays in the Photo menu, it

means you cannot see those JPEG ﬁles.

WMA(Windows Media Audio) oﬀers double the

audio.compression of the MP3 format.

4. Use a/d/s/wto select a ﬁle, then press

ENTER (b).

MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this recorder

is limited as follows:

The options appear on the left side of the menu.

1. CD-R physical format should be“ISO 9660”and

“JOLIET”.

2. If you record MP3/WMA ﬁles using the software

which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example

“Direct-CD”etc., it is impossible to playback

MP3/WMA ﬁles.We recommend that you use

“Easy-CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 or

JOLIET ﬁle system.

3. Total number of ﬁles and folders on the disc

should be less than 1999.

Note

If you are in a ﬁle list and want to return

to the Folder list, use the s/wbuttons on

the remote to highlight the icon and press

ENTER (b).

This Recorder requires discs/recordings to meet

certain technical standards in order to achieve

optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are

automatically set to these standards. There are

many diﬀerent types of recordable disc formats

(including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA ﬁles) that

require certain pre-existing conditions (see above)

to insure compatible playback.

You can view TV channel or video input

source by pressing x (RETURN). If you

want to return to the Photo menu, press

MENU/LIST.

Customers should also note that permission is

required in order to download MP3/WMA ﬁles and

music from the Internet. Our company has no right

to grant such permission. Permission should always

be sought from the copyright owner.

Notes on JPEG Recordings

press ENTER (b).

Depending on the size and number of the JPEG

ﬁles, it may take several minutes to read the

contents of the media. If you don’t see an on-

screen display after several minutes, some of the

ﬁles are too big — reduce the resolution of the

JPEG ﬁles to less than 4 mega pixels and burn

another disc.

The total number of ﬁles and folders are free but

the total number of ﬁles on the folder should be

less than 1999.

6. To stop viewing at any time, press Z(STOP).

The Photo menu reappears.

Some discs may be incompatible due to diﬀerent

recording formats or the condition of the discs.

When you are using software such as“Easy CD

Creator”to burn JPEG ﬁles on a CD-R, ensure that

all selected ﬁles have the“.jpg”extension before

copying them into the CD layout.

Skip Images

While viewing a picture, press SKIP (C or V)

once to advance to the next ﬁle or return to the

previous ﬁle.

If the ﬁles have“.jpe”extensions, please rename

them as“.jpg”ﬁles.

Rotate Images

Use s/wwhile viewing a picture to ﬂip the picture

clockwise or counterclockwise.

File names without the“.jpg”extension cannot be

read by this recorder, even though the ﬁles are

shown as JPEG image ﬁles in Windows Explorer®.

The Delete Title option in the Title List (Original)

menu only hides the title, it does not actually

erase the title from the disc and increase the

recording time available (except for the last

recorded title on a DVD-RW disc in Video mode).

DVD Recording

Overwrite recording is available using DVD+RW

discs.

Notes for DVD recording

When using a DVD+R/RW, the recorder will

execute the Menu-making operation to update

the new title and editing when removing the

disc from the recorder.

This Recorder cannot record CD-R or CD-RW

discs.

Fingerprints and small scratches on a disc can

aﬀect playback and/or recording performance.

Please take proper care of your discs.

The recordable time is limited to 12 hours for a

title.

The company does not hold any responsibility

to compensate the contents which should have

been recorded, and any losses or damages (e.g.

losses of business proﬁt, or business intermission)

that may arise from malfunction of this recorder

(not recording/editing as intended).

If the unit detects the copy-protected signal

while recording, the recording will be paused

temporarily until the signal switchs to recordable

signal.

Recording time and picture quality

There are ﬁve preset recording quality modes:

The recording times shown are not exact

because the recorder uses variable bit-rate

video compression. This means that the exact

recording time will depend on the material

being recorded.

[XP] – Highest quality setting, gives about 1

hour of recording time on a DVD (4.7GB).

When recording a TV broadcast, if the reception

is poor or the picture contains interference, the

recording times may be shorter.

[SP] – Default quality, suﬃcient for most

applications, gives about 2 hours of recording

time on a DVD (4.7GB).

The unit cannot record the DTV caption on the

recordable DVD disc.

[LP] – Slightly lower video quality, gives about

4 hour of recording time on a DVD disc (4.7GB).

If you record still pictures or audio only, the

recording time may be longer.

[EP] – Low video quality, gives about 6 hour of

recording time on a DVD (4.7GB).

The displayed times for recording and time

remaining may not always add up to exactly the

length of the disc.

[MLP] – The longest recording time with the

lowest video quality, gives you about 14 hours

of recording time on a DVD (4.7GB).

The recording time available may decrease if you

heavily edit a disc.

Note

If using a DVD-RW disc, make sure you change

the recording format (Video mode or VR mode)

before you record anything on the disc. See page

26 (Initialize) for how to do this.

You may see a fragmented picture during

playing back the contents recorded in EP or

MLP mode.

When using a DVD-R or DVD+R disc, you can

keep recording until the disc is full, or until you

ﬁnalize the disc. Before you start a recording

session, check the amount of recording time left

on the disc.

When using a DVD-RW disc in Video mode,

recording time available will only increase if you

erase the last title recorded on the disc.

Editing

Use this function to add an Original title or chapter

to the Playlist. When you do this, the whole title or

chapter are put into the Playlist (you can delete bits

you don’t need later - see [Deleting an Original or

Playlist title/chapter] on page 54).

Titles, Chapters and Parts

Titles in the disc’s original content contain one or

more chapters. When you add a disc’s title into the

Playlist, all the chapters within that title also added.

In other words, chapters in the Playlist behave

exactly as chapters on original content. From the

Original and Playlist menu you can add or delete

parts. Adding a chapter or title to the Playlist creates

a new title made up of a section (ie., chapter) of an

Original title. Deleting a part removes part of a title

from the Original or Playlist menu.

The title appears in the Playlist complete with

the chapter markers that appear in the Original.

However, if you add more chapter markers to the

Original later, these are not automatically copied

over into the Playlist title.

1. Choose a title or chapter on the [Title List-

Original] menu or [Chapter List-Original] menu

to put into the Playlist, then press ENTER (b).

The menu options appears on the left side of

may not be exactly as set in the start and

2. Use s/wto select [Playlist Add] option then

press d.

During Playlist playback, you may notice a

momentary pause between edits. This is not

a malfunction.

Is editing a DVD like editing a video

tape?

No. When you edit a video tape you need one video

deck to play the original tape and another to record

the edits. With DVD, you edit by making a‘Playlist’of

what to play and when to play it. On playback, the

Recorder plays the disc according to the Playlist.

3. Select [New Playlist] then press ENTER (b).

The new title appears in the updated Playlist. All

chapters of the title are added to the Playlist.

About word ‘Original’ and ‘Playlist’

-RW_VR

Throughout this manual, you will often see the

words Original and Playlist to refer to the actual

content and the edited version.

Original: content refers to what’s actually

recorded on the disc.

Playlist: content refers to the edited version of

the disc — how the Original content is to be

played.
