• If you record MP3 / WMA files using software that

impossible to playback MP3 / WMA files.We recom-
mend that you use Easy-CD Creator, which creates
an ISO 9660 file system.

must incorporate an .mp3 or .wma extension.

than 999.
This unit requires discs and recordings to meet certain
technical standards in order to achieve optimal play-
back quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set
to these standards. There are many different types of
recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing
MP3 or WMA files) and these require certain pre-
existing conditions (see above) to ensure compatible
playback.
Customers should note that permission is
required in order to download MP3 / WMA files
and music from the Internet. Our company has no
right to grant such permission. Permission should
always be sought from the copyright owner.
