About music file In cases where the recorder is unable to playback music files that have been transferred to it, check to make sure that the sampling rate and bit rate are in the range where playback is possible. Combinations of sampling rates and bit rates for music files which the recorder can playback are given below. File format Sampling frequency Bit rate MP3 format WMA format MPEG1 Layer3: 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz MPEG2 Layer3: 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz 8 kHz, 11 kHz, 16 kHz, 22 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz From 8 kbps up to 320 kbps From 5 kbps up to 320 kbps • Variable bitrate MP3 files (in which conversion bitrates can vary) may not play properly. • This recorder is compatible with Microsoft Corporation DRM9, but not with DRM10. • Even if the file is a compatible format to playback on the recorder, the recorder does not support every encoder. Guide to recording times 4 MP3 format: 192 kbps 128 kbps 48 kbps approx. 22 h. 30 min. approx. 34 h. approx. 91 h. 30 min. 4 WMA format: HQ SP LP DNS (Rec Scene) approx. 134 h. approx. 264 h. approx. 843 h. approx. 33 h. Notes: • The above values are strictly rough guides. • Caution is required, since the differences in the available recording time will increase when the bit rate is low. • Available recording time may be shorter if many short recordings are made (The displayed available recording time and recorded time are approximate indications). Maximum recording time per file 4 MP3 format: 192 kbps 128 kbps 48 kbps approx. 49 h. 40 min. approx. 74 h. 30 min. approx. 198 h. 40 min. 4 WMA format: HQ approx. 26 h. 40 min.
