You can also use this car sound system to play CD-Rs and CD-RWs that contain MP3 music files. You can also play WMA files.

This chapters deals only with playing MP3 Þles since the operation for MP3 and WMA Þles is identical.

Notes:

• WMA files with Digital Rights Management (DRM) from online mu- sic shops cannot be played with this device.

•WMA files can only be played back safe- ly if they were created with Windows Media Player version 8 or later.

Preparing an MP3/WMA CD

The various combinations of CD burners, CD burning software and CD blanks may lead to problems arising with the device’s ability to play certain CDs. If problems oc- cur with your own burned CDs, you should try another brand of CD blank or choose an- other colour of CD blank.

The format of the CD must be ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2 or Joliet. Other formats cannot be played reliably.

You can create a maximum of 252 directories on a CD. You can use this device to access all of these directories individually.

Regardless of the number of directories on the CD, the device can handle up to 511 MP3 files on a single CD, with a maximum of 255 files in one directory.

ADirectories B Tracks · Files

You can name each directory using a PC. The device is capable of displaying the di- rectory name. Name the directories and tracks/files using your CD burner software. The software’s instruction manual will pro- vide details on how to do this.

Notes:

•When naming files (directories and tracks) you should avoid using ac- cents and special characters.

•If you use file names with more than 16 characters (including ".MP3" or ".WMA"), the maximum number of tracks and directories is reduced.

If you like your files to be in the specific or- der, save the files on the data carrier in the desired sequence in which you want to play
