NOTES:
• The DVD-5900 is compatible with the "MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3" standards (sampling frequency of 44.1 or 48 kHz). It is not
compatible with such other standards as "MPEG-2 Audio Layer 3", "MPEG-2.5 Audio Layer 3", MP1, MP2, etc.
• It may not be possible to play some CD-R/RW discs due to disc properties, dirt, warping, etc.
• The digital signals output when playing MP3 files are MP3 signals converted into PCM, regardless of whether the audio output
presetting is set to "normal" or "PCM". The signals are output with the same sampling frequency as that of the music source.
• In general, the higher an MP3 file's bit rate, the better the sound quality. On the DVD-5900, we recommend using MP3 files recorded
with bit rates of 128 kbps or greater.
• MP3 files may not be played in the expected order, since the writing software may change the position of the folders and the order
of the files when writing them on the CD-R/RW.
• Programmed playback are not possible with MP3 discs.
• When writing MP3 files on CD-R/RW discs, select "ISO9660 level 1" as the writing software format. This may not be possible with
some types of writing software. For details, refer to the writing software's usage instructions.
• The number of files playable with the DVD-5900 is approximately 600 or less.
• With the DVD-5900 it is possible to display folder names and file names on the screen like titles. The DVD-5900 can display up to
8 characters, consisting of numbers, capital letters, and the "_" (underscore) mark.
• If recorded in a format other than "ISO9660 level 1", normal display and playback may not be possible. In addition, folder and file
names including other symbols will not be displayed properly.
• Be sure to add the extension ".MP3" to MP3 files. Files cannot be played if they have any extension other than ".MP3" or if they
have no extension. (with Macintosh computers, MP3 files can be played by adding the extension ".MP3" after the file name consisting
of up to 8 capital or numbers and recording the files on the CD-R/RW.)
• Do not apply stickers, tape, etc., to either the label side or the signal side of CD-R/RW discs. If adhesive gets on the surface of a
disc, the disc may get stuck inside the DVD-5900 and be impossible to eject.
• The DVD-5900 is not compatible with packet write software.
• The DVD-5900 is not compatible with ID3-Tag.
• The DVD-5900 is not compatible with play lists.
• The DVD-5900 is not compatible with MP3 PRO.
• Do not play CD-R/RW discs containing any files other than music CD files (in CDDA format), WMA, MP3 and JPEG files. Doing so
may result in malfunction or damage, depending on the type of file.
