The file format and extension used depend on the application used to encode the AAC file. This unit plays back AAC files encoded by iTunes® bearing the extension ‘.m4a’. DRM-protected files will not play, and files encoded with some versions of iTunes® may not play, or filenames may display incor- rectly.
