When naming your MP3 files do not exceed 8 characters, and place ".mp3" as the file extension.  
General name format of: Title.mp3. 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 kb/ sec (kilobytes/ second) 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 kb/ sec and up to 160 kb/ sec. However, choosing higher rates, like 192 kb/ sec or  
more, only rarely give better sound quality.

Conversely, files with sampling rates below 128 kb/ sec 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 MediaTM (registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and SDMITM (registered  
trade mark of The SDMI Foundation). You cannot copy such files.  
Your DVD player only accepts one level of file directory.  
Consequently you must choose:  
-either to save all your MP3 recording files at the root of the disc;  
-and/ or create folders in the directory for each artist or music type (e.g.classical, rock, jazz, etc)

MP3 recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality.  
Press the MODE button to switch between the RANDOM  
and PROGRAM modes. See page 27 for more information  
on these modes.  
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).
