Basic Items

DISC NAME (DISPLAY/NOT DISPLAY)

This preference determines whether or not the disc name is displayed when an MP3 disc is read.

TRACK NAME (SCROLL/NOT SCROLL)

This preference determines whether or not the track name scrolls across the display when an MP3 track is selected.

FOLDER NAME (SCROLL/NOT SCROLL)

This preference determines whether or not the folder name scrolls across the display when an MP3 folder is selected.

BAD NAME (REPLACE/NOT REPLACE)

This preference determines whether or not track and folder names that contain undisplayable characters are replaced with “TRACK n” or “FOLDER n,” “n” being the track or folder number. When set to NOT REPLACE, displayable characters are displayed and underscores are used in place of any undisplayable characters.

For ID3 tags, underscores are used in place of undisplay- able characters regardless of this preference.

Note:

Track and folder names are scrolled in Navigation mode (page 17) regardless of the TRACK NAME and FOLDER NAME preferences.

This preference applies to CD Extra discs and deter- mines whether music in the audio session or MP3 tracks in the data session are played.

JOLIET (USE SVD/ISO9660)
