The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1.2 & 2.5 Audio Layer 3,
is an audio compression standard which permits the recording of
several
tens of music files on a single disc.
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when
recording,
the ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet file format is
recommended.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be played
correctly

.
It is recommended that the same recording format is always used
for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible
(4x
maximum) for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the
j oliet format is
recommended.
The
audio system will only play files with the extension ".mp3" with
a

sampling rate of 22.05 KHz or 44.1 KHz. No other type of file
(.wma, .mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
It

is advisable to restrict file names to 20 characters without using
special characters (e.g. " ?

; ù) to avoid any playing or displaying
problems.
