MULTIMEDIA 375
DVD Audio Support
When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in the DVD
pl
ayer, the DVD-Audio title on the disc is played
by default (most DVD-Audio discs also have a
Video title, but the Video title is ignored). All
multi-channel program material is automatically
mixed down to two channels, which may result
in a lowered apparent volume level. If you
increase the volume level to account for this
change in level, remember to lower the volume
before changing the disc or to another mode.
Recorded Discs
The DVD player will play CD-R and CD-RW discs
re
corded in CD-Audio or Video-CD format, or as a
CD-ROM containing MP3 or WMA files. The player
will also play DVD-Video content recorded to a
DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD-ROM discs.
If you record a disc using a personal computer,
th
ere may be cases where the DVD player may
not be able to play some or the entire disc, even
if it is recorded in a compatible format and is
playable on other players. To help avoid
playback problems, use the following guidelines
when recording discs.
Open sessions are ignored. Only sessions
that are closed are playable.
For multi-session CDs that contain only
multiple CD-Audio sessions, the player will
renumber the tracks so each track number is
unique.
For CD Data (or CD-ROM) discs, always use
the ISO-9660 (Level 1 or Level 2), Joliet, or
UDF format. CD-DA may also be used for PCM
Audio contained on CD-Based Data.
The player recognizes a maximum of 512
files and 99 folders per CD-R and CD-RW
disc.
Mixed media recordable DVD formats will
only play the Video_TS portion of the disc.
If you are still having trouble writing a disc that
is
playable in the DVD player, check with the
disc recording software publisher for more
information about burning playable discs.
The recommended method for labeling
re
cordable discs (CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R and
DVD-RW) is with a permanent marker. Do not
use adhesive labels as they may separate from
the disc, become stuck, and cause permanent
damage to the DVD player.
Compressed Audio Files (MP3, WMA And ACC)
The DVD player is capable of playing MP3
(M
PEG-1 Audio Layer 3 with data bitrates from
32 to 320 kbit/s, including variable bit rates),
WMA (All Standard 8.x, 9.x Windows Media
Audio) and ACC (MPEG-4 audio; sampling
frequencies 8 to 48 kHz; mono and stereo)
audio files with the from CD Data disc (usually a
CD-R or CD-RW).
The DVD player always uses the file extension
to determine the audio format, so MP3 files
must always end with the extension ".mp3" or
".MP3", WMA files must always end with the
extension ".wma" or "WMA", and ACC files must
end with the extensions “.acc” or “.m4a”. To
prevent incorrect playback, do not use these
extensions for any other types of files.
For MP3 files, ID3 tag data v1, v1.1, v2 and
v2.4 (such as artist name, track title, album,
etc.) are supported.
Any file that is copy protected (such as those
downloaded from many online music stores)
will not play. The DVD player will automati-
cally skip the file and begin playing the next
av
ailable file.
