MP3 and WMA files

•MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3 and refers to an audio compression technology standard.

•WMA is short for Windows MediaTM Audio and refers to an audio compression tech- nology that is developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by using Windows Media Player version 7 or later.

•With some applications used to encode WMA files, this unit may not operate cor- rectly.

•With some applications used to encode WMA files, album names and other text information may not be correctly dis- played.

•This unit allows playback of MP3/WMA files on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs. Disc recordings compatible with level 1 and level 2 of ISO9660 and with the Romeo and Joliet file system can be played back.

•It is possible to play back multi-session compatible recorded discs.

•MP3/WMA files are not compatible with packet write data transfer.

•The maximum number of characters which can be displayed for a file name, including the extension (.mp3, .wma), is 64 , from the first character.

•The maximum number of characters which can be displayed for a folder name is 64 .

•In case of files recorded according to the Romeo file system, only the first 64 char- acters can be displayed.

•The folder selection sequence for playback and other operations becomes the writing sequence used by the writing software. For this reason, the expected sequence at the time of playback may not coincide with the actual playback sequence. However, there also is some writing software which permits setting of the playback order.

IMPORTANT

•When naming an MP3/WMA file, add the corresponding filename extension (.mp3,

.wma).

•This unit plays back files with the filename extension (.mp3, .wma) as an MP3/ WMA file. To prevent noise and malfunctions, do not use these extensions for files other than MP3/WMA files.
