About MP3 disc

What is MP3?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression. By using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can.

Disc structure

On an MP3 disc, each item (song) is recorded as a track (file), which usually belongs to a group (folder).

This unit can recognize up to 99 groups and up to 254 tracks per group; however, the number of tracks to be played back on a disc is limited to 1023.

If a disc includes more than 1023 tracks, the unit ignores any tracks which have been assigned track numbers exceeding 1023. The unit also ignores any non-MP3 files on the disc.

NOTES for MP3 discs

MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout time, due to the complexity of the folder/file configuration.

When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 as the disc format.

Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their disc characteristics or recording conditions.

The unit does not support “packet writing” of discs.

If there are any tracks (files) which are stored on a disc directly and do not belong to any group (folder), the unit recognizes them as belonging to a particular group.

The unit does not output a digital audio signal from the DVD OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT terminal when playing back an MP3 disc.

The unit plays back groups/tracks on an MP3 disc in alphabetical order.

Ex.: When there are three title groups [one], [two] and [three] on a disc:

Recorded playback order

1 one

 

2 two

 

3 three

 

 

The playback order on this unit is [one], [three] then [two].

Playback order on this unit

1 one

 

2 three

 

3 two
