CD Audio and MP3 Playback

Rosen Entertainment Systems

CD Playback

When an Audio CD is inserted, “CD” will appear on the screen. To display track information, press INFO. To play the tracks in a random order, press RANDOM PLAY.

MP3 Playback

When a compact disc with MP3 files is inserted, the SMART NAVI screen will appear. To conceal the SMART NAVI screen, see the “DVD Setup Menu” section. Each folder and file will be shown (the order may be slightly different than that on your PC). Navigate the files and folders using the navigation arrow keys, and select a file or folder to be played by using the ENTER button. To move to the next file or the previous file, use the NEXT and PREVIOUS buttons.

MP3 Disc Recording and File Extensions

When recording a CD with MP3 files to be played on the A7, always add a file extension “ .MP3” or “.mp3” to MP3 files by using single- byte letters. If you add a different file extension, or forget to add the file extension “ .MP3” or “.mp3,” the file cannot be played. In addition, if you use upper case and lower case letters (capital and small letters) mixed together for file extensions, the file may not play.

Notes:

·Some CDs recorded in CD-R or CD-RW mode may not play.

·Files saved without MP3 data will not play.

When recording Audio CDs or MP3 files, make sure to check your CD recorder’s level setting - too high a level will result in distorted sound.
