TERMS
PACKET WRITE
● This is a general term that describes the process of
writing data on-demand to CD-R, etc., in the same
way that data is written to oppy or hard discs.
ID3 TAG
● This is a method of embedding track-related
information in an MP3 le. This embedded information
can include the track number, track title, the artist’s
name, the album title, the music genre, the year of
production, comments, cover art and other data. The
contents can be freely edited using software with ID3
tag editing functions. Although tags are restricted to a
certain number of characters, the artist name, track
title, and album title can be viewed when the track is
played back.
WMA TAG
● WMA les can contain a WMA tag that is used in the
same way as an ID3 tag. WMA tags carry information
such as track title and artist name.
ISO 9660 FORMAT
● This is the international standard for the formatting of
CD-ROM folders and les. For the ISO 9660 format,
there are 2 levels of regulations.
● Level 1: The le name is in 8.3 format (8 character le
names, with a 3 character le extension. File names
must be composed of one-byte capital letters and
numbers. The “_” symbol may also be included.)
● Level 2: The le name can have up to 31 characters
(including the separation mark “.” and le extension).
Each folder must contain fewer than 8 hierarchies.
m3u

playlist le extension (.m3u).
