Supported Disc Types Supported Disc Types You can enjoy movie or music discs with CinemaStation. Since some CinemaStation disc operations are limited to specific disc types, the supported disc types are indicated using the icons shown below. Each icon means that the operation is limited to the corresponding disc type. For information on supported disc standards and disc usage notes, refer to "Disc Information" (page 86) and "Handling a disc" (page 87). Operations with no icon indicated are available for all disc types. DVD video DVD-V Video CD VCD Music CD CD About MP3 and JPEG picture discs Root Album (Folder) Track (File) You can play MP3 files recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW with similar uses as a music CD. The CinemaStation regards folders in the MP3 disc as albums, and files as tracks (as shown on the left). Also you can play JPEG picture files recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW. For details about how to play JPEG picture discs, refer to "Enjoying JPEG Images" (page 47). What is MP3? "MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3)" is a standard technology and format for compressing an audio sequence into a small-sized file. However it preserves the original level of sound quality when it is played. Notes • Depending on recording conditions such as recording software settings, the CinemaStation may not be able to play the disc or play tracks in the order they were recorded. • The CinemaStation is compatible with a bit rate range of 32, 64, 96, 128, 192, or 256 kbps and variable bit encoded MP3 files. • The CinemaStation is compatible with a sampling frequency of 32, 44.1, or 48 kHz. What is JPEG? "JPEG" is a compression format for still images. With only a slight drop in image quality (part of the data is removed), still image data can be compressed to approximately 1/10 to 1/100 of its original size. Notes • The Program Play feature is not available for JPEG images. • This unit does not support the progressive JPEG format. 32
