Playing MP3 discs

The RDV-1093 can play MP3 ﬁles, from most CD-R and CD-RW discs. These discs, often recorded on computer drives, have a file structure similar to computer discs, with ﬁles stored in folders.

Here are a few tips when recording your own discs:

•Select “ISO 9660” as the disc format.

•Record MP3 files at a 44.1 kHz sampling rate, using the 128 kbps data transfer rate. Files must have an .MP3 file extension.

•The player does not support “packet writing (UDF file)” discs.

•The player does not support the ID3 tag.

•The player supports discs recorded with multiple sessions.

•Some discs may not play due to disc char- acteristics or recording conditions.

Selecting ﬁles for playback and other features are made using a special URD menu.
