MP3
The CDR510 can play most discs** that include
MP3* files. The CDR510 cannot duplicate an
MP3 disc but can record audio from an MP3 disc
onto a blank CD-R or CD-RW disc, see How to
record MP3.
MP3 playback and recording
MP3 discs can be recognized in the CD drive
only. Reading an MP3 disc for playback or
recording requires additional instructions be
loaded into the memory of the CDR510. This
takes about 10 seconds.
When MP3 instructions are loaded into the
CDR510 memory depends on the setting of
AUTO MP3 LOAD. With AUTO MP3 LOAD ON,
loading MP3 instructions takes place on power
up. If you often play MP3 discs this option avoids
delay when you insert an MP3 disc. With AUTO
MP3 LOAD OFF, loading MP3 instructions does
not take place until an MP3 disc is recognized in
the CD drive or MP3 LOAD is activated. If you
rarely play MP3 discs this option speeds power
up.
* “MP3” refers to music data which has been
compressed by a file format known as “MPEG-1
Audio Layer 3.” Files with the “.mp3” or “.MP3”
extension are called MP3 files.
The ID3 tag is supported by the CDR510. ID3 is
a format that adds title information to MP3 files.
**The following technical issues can result in
MP3 incompatibility with the CDR510:
• MP3 files recorded using the packet writing
method are not compatible for playback in the
CDR510.
• Compatible MP3 sampling frequencies
include 32-48 kHz.
• Compatible bit rates allowed include 32-320
kbps.
• The type of PC, software and media used for
recording might be incompatible.
• The disc may contain too many sessions or
files.
A "session" occurs each time a recording is
made and finalized. When a CD-RW disc is
unfinalized and tracks are added it creates an
additional session on the disc. This is also
