Points to Remember When Making MP3/
WMA/AAC Files
Common
• High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recommended
for high quality sounds.
• Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended
because playing time is not displayed properly and sound
may be skipped.
• The playback sound quality differs depending on the
encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the instructions
of your own encoding software and writing software.
MP3
• It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or more”
and “fixed”.
WMA
• It is recommended to set the bit rate to “64 kbps or more”
and “fixed”.
• Do not set the copy protect attribute on the WMA file to
enable this unit to play back.
AAC
• It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or more”
and “fixed”.
• The formats and extensions for AAC data vary according to
the encoder software used.
• AAC files which can be played on this unit have the “.m4a”
extension and were encoded with Apple iTunes® version 7.
