album, category, etc. In addition, a folder can be a member of another folder, creating hierarchical folder layers. If you are familiar with a personal computer, you may easily understand the hierarchical file/folder construction of MP3 discs.
This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc and manages files and folders by "Tracks" and "Groups" in the following manners.
• | Each file is regarded as a Track. |
• | A folder which has one or more files (Tracks) is |
| regarded as a Group. |
• | A folders' folder which does not manage any file |
| directly is ignored. |
• | Files which do not belong to any folder are grouped |
| into "Group 1". |
