copyright-protected under applicable<br />
international and national laws.<br />
In many countries, the reproduction of<br />
copyrighted material is not permitted even if<br />

prior consent of the copyright holder.<br />
Please check the current copyright laws for<br />

Notes about DVD Audio Discs<br />
<strong>COMAND</strong> can playback commercially<br />
available, prerecorded Audio DVDs that bear<br />
the following label. You will usually find the<br />
label on the DVD booklet, the inlay or the DVD<br />
itself.<br />
i Audio DVDs differ from recordable DVD-R<br />
and DVD-RW discs.<br />
Data on Audio DVDs are stored either in<br />
uncompressed format or in lossless<br />
compressed format. The sound quality on<br />
Audio DVDs is therefore better than on<br />
recordable DVDs that contain MP3 data<br />
because the MP3 format uses a lossy type of<br />
compression. You cannot delete data from or<br />
CD Audio/DVD Audio/MP3 133<br />
record additional data to commercially<br />
available, prerecorded Audio DVDs. Please<br />
note the following information about CDs/<br />
DVDs and pay special attention to the notes<br />
on copied and/or self-written CDs/DVDs.<br />
Permissible Bit and Sampling Rates<br />
RFixed and variable bit rates from 32 kbps to<br />
320 kbps<br />
RSampling rates from 8 kHz to 48 kHz<br />
i Only use MP3 tracks with a bit rate of<br />
128 kbps or higher and with a sampling rate<br />
of 44.1 kHz or higher. Lower rates may<br />
result in impaired sound quality. This is<br />
particularly true if the surround sound<br />

WMA (Windows ® Media Audio) format of the<br />
following type:<br />
Rfixed bit rates from 5 kBit/s up to<br />
384 kBit/s<br />
Rsampling rates from 8 kHz to 48 kHz.<br />
<strong>COMAND</strong> does not support WMA files of the<br />
following type:<br />
RDRM (Digital Rights Management)<br />
encrypted files<br />
i If other music files are stored in these<br />
audio formats on a storage medium, in<br />
addition to MP3 files, the loading process<br />
may take longer before the first track is<br />
played.<br />
Notes about CD/DVD Discs<br />
i Discs with copy protection do not comply<br />
with the CD Audio standard and in some<br />
cases cannot be played by <strong>COMAND</strong>. When<br />
playing copied discs, problems may occur<br />
with the playback.<br />
A wide variety of discs, disc writing software<br />
and writers are available. Due to this variety<br />
we cannot guarantee that the system will be<br />
able to play discs that you have written/<br />
copied yourself.<br />
