Sony DMX-DVD Manual

MP3 is audio compression technology that satisfies the 
ISO/IEC MPEG regulations. JPEG is image 
compression technology.
You can play DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that contain 
MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files.

You can play DATA CDs or DATA DVDs recorded in 
MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer III) and JPEG format.
However, this player only plays DATA CDs whose 
logical format is ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2 or Joliet, 
and DATA DVDs of Universal Disk Format (UDF).
Refer to the instructions supplied with the disc drives 
and the recording software (not supplied) for details on 
the recording format.

The player may not be able to play some DATA CDs/
DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write format.

The player can play the following tracks and files:
– MP3 audio tracks with the extension “.MP3.”
– JPEG image files with the extension “.JPEG” or 

“.JPG.”

– JPEG image files that conform to the DCF* image 

file format.

* “Design rule for Camera File system”: Image 

standards for digital cameras regulated by JEITA 
(Japan Electronics and Information Technology 
Industries Association).

• The player will attempt to play any data with the 

extension “.MP3,” “.JPG,” or “.JPEG,” even if they 
are not in MP3 or JPEG format. Playing this data may 
generate a loud noise which could damage your 
speaker system.

• The player does not conform to audio tracks in 

mp3PRO format.

◆Structure of disc contents

N while in the DVD mode, the numbered tracks (or 
files) are played sequentially, from 1 through 7. Any

currently selected album take priority over the next 
album in the same tree. (Example: C contains D so 4 
is played before 5.)
