MP3/WMA OPERATION
MP3 and WMA (Windows Media Audio) music files are digital audio files that are compressed to
allow more files on a single CD. This unit can play MP3/WMA directly from files contained on a
CD-R/RW using the buttons on the receiver (or optional remote) as described below. Many types
of software are available for converting audio files into MP3/WMA formats. Jensen recommends
Nero, MusicMatch Jukebox or Roxio Easy CD Creator. Depending on the media type and
recording method, some CD-R/RW's may be incompatible with this unit. The unit supports
playback of MP3/WMA and CDDA (CDA), Mixed-Mode CDs and CD-Extra (including multi-
session discs), but discs on which the session has not been closed will not play.
Notes on MP3/WMA Play
This unit can play MP3 (MPEG1, 2, 2.5 Audio Layer 3) and WMA ver. 7 and 8. However, the MP3
recording media and accepted formats are limited. When writing MP3/WMA, pay attention to the
following restrictions.
Acceptable Media
The MP3/WMA recording media acceptable to this unit are CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW. When
using CD-RW, use full format rather than quick format to prevent malfunction.
Acceptable Medium Formats
The following formats are available for the media used in this unit. The maximum number of
characters used for file name including the delimiter (".") and three-character extension are
indicated in parentheses.
• ISO 9660 Level 1 (11 characters)
• ISO 9660 Level 2 (31 characters)
• Joliet (31 characters)
Up to 200 characters can be displayed in the long file name format. For a list of available
characters, see the instruction manual of the writing software. The media reproducible on this unit
has the following limitations:
• Maximum number of nested folders: 15
• Maximum number of files per disc: 796 (199 MP3+199 WMA+199 MPG+199 JPG)
• Maximum number of folders per disc: 199
• Maximum number of sessions per disc: 5
MP3/WMA written in formats other than those listed above will not play successfully and their file
names or folder names will not be displayed properly.
MP3/WMA Encoder and CD Writer Settings
Use the following settings when compressing audio data in MP3 data with the MP3 encoder:
• Transfer bit rate: 32 - 320 kbps
• Sampling frequency: 32,44.1,48 kHz (WMA) 16,22.05,24,32,44.1, 48kHz (Mp3)
When using a CD writer to record MP3/WMA up to the maximum disc capacity, disable additional
writing. To record an empty disc up to the maximum capacity at once, select the “disc at once”
option.
