1)MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3) is a standard

format defined by ISO/MPEG which

compresses audio data. MP3 audio tracks

must be in MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3 format.

2)A logical format of files and folders on

CD-ROMs, defined by ISO (International

Organization for Standardization).

3)This is a recording method that enables

adding of data using the Track-At-Once

method. Conventional discs begin at a disc

control area called the Lead-in and end at an

area called Lead-out. A Multi Session disc is

a disc having multiple sessions, with each

segmentfrom Lead-in toLead-out regardedas

a single session.

• Data part of CD-Extras1)

• Data part of Mixed CDs2)

• CD-R/-RW discs that have not been

correctly finalized (processing to allow

played back by a normal CD player).

• CD-R/-RW discs recorded in Multi

Session that have not ended by “closing

the session”.

• A disc recorded in packet write format.

• Audio side of a DualDisc.

• A disc that has a non-standard shape

(e.g., heart, square, star).

• A disc that has the adhesive cellophane

tape or a sticker still left on it.

1)CD-Extra: This format records audio

(AUDIO CD data) on the tracks in session 1

and data on the tracks in session 2.

2)Mixed CD: This format records data on the

first track and audio (AUDIO CD data) on the

second and subsequent tracks of a session.

A DualDisc is a two sided disc product

which mates DVD recorded material on

one side with digital audio material on the

other side. However, since the audio

material side does not conform to the

Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback

on this product is not guaranteed.

In some cases, CD-Rs/-RWs cannot be

played back on this system due to the

recording quality or physical condition of

the disc, or the characteristics of the

recording device and authoring software.

The disc will not be played back if it has

not been correctly finalized. For more

information, see the operating

instructions of the recording device.
