MP3s and WMA files
MP3 and WMA formats are Windows compression formats for audio data.
WMA stands for "Windows Media Audio" and was introduced more
recently than the MP3 format.
MP3 and WMA files have to be saved with the file extension *.mp3 or
*.wma in order to be recognised.
In contrast to traditional audio CDs, MP3 and WMA CDs can be sub-
divided into directories (folders, albums) and files (tracks, titles) - just like
a data CD for your computer. Folders and titles are read in alphabetical
order.
MPEG4 and DiVX
MPEG4 is a compression technology for multimedia/video data ("MPEG" =
"Moving Picture Experts Group").
DiVX is a brand name for a video compression-decompression technology
based on the MPEG4 format. This player uses DiVX 4 and DiVX 5
technology to ensure that the peak bit rate (short-term peak) never
exceeds 10,000 kbps.
