rized, the latest stop position is automatically recalled.

you switch off the player before commencing to play
it.
Screen Saver

mode number selected is displayed on the TV screen.

Notes on MP3 Discs
About MP3
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using
MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.
The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file
extension other than “.mp3”.
The player can not read a fake MP3 file that has a
file extension “.mp3”.
MP3 Disc compatibility with this player is
limited as follows:
1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz
2. Bit rate/ within 32 - 320kbps
3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”
4. If you record MP3 files using the software which
cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “Direct-
CD” etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We
therefore recommend that you use “Easy-CD
Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.
5. A single session disc requires MP3 files in the first
track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it can-
not playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3
files, format all the data in the disc or use a new
one.
6. We do not recommend using CD-RW discs. Please
use finished CD-R discs only.
7. File names should be named using 8 letters or less
and must incorporate the “.mp3” extension
e.g. “********.MP3”.
8. Do not use special characters such as
“_?!><+*}{`[@ ]:;\/.,” etc.
9. Total number of files on the disc should be less than
200.
10. Use 74 minute CD-R discs (650M), do not use 80
minute CD-R (700M) software.
This DVD player 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 files).
Customers should also note that permission is required
in order to download MP3 files and music from the
Internet. Our company has no right to grant such per-
mission. Permission should always be sought from the
copyright owner.
