About encoded audio
Applications like Windows Media Player and Nokia Audio
Manager in Nokia Nseries PC Suite (available on the
CD-ROM supplied with your device) encode audio files
with codecs such as WMA or MP3 to save storage space.
The encoding is done by removing those parts of the audio
signal that are not audible or only barely audible by
human ear.
Regardless of the encoder and codec quality, the sound
quality of the resulting file is not as good as the original.
The basic codecs supported by this device are AAC, WMA,
and MP3. All of these have different variations.
Music
player does not necessarily support all features of a file
format or all the variations of file formats.
Bitrates
When encoding audio, the quality of the resulting sound
depends on the sample rate and bit rate used for the
encoding. Sample rate is expressed as thousands of
samples per second (kHz), and for CD music, the sample
rate is fixed at 44.1 kHz. Bit rate is expressed as kilobits
per second (Kbps). The higher the bit rate, the better the
sound quality.
