Tips for making WMA/MP3 and JPEG discs (For CD-R/CD-RW)

≥Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended formats).

≥This unit is compatible with multi-session but if there are a lot of sessions it takes more time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a minimum to avoid this.

≥If groups were created away from the root like “002 group” in the illustration below, the eighth one

and onwards are displayed on the same vertical line in the menu screen.

≥There may be differences in the display order on the menu screen and computer screen. ≥This unit cannot play files recorded using packet write.

Naming folders and files	e.g. [MP3]
(Files are treated as content and folders are treated as groups on this	root 001 group
unit.)
At the time of recording, prefix folder and file names. This should be with
numbers that have an equal number of digits, and should be done in the			001 track.mp3
order you want to play them (this may not work at times).
			002 track.mp3
Files must have the extension:			003 track.mp3
			002 group
“.WMA” or “.wma”
“.MP3” or “.mp3”				001 track.mp3
“.JPG”, “.jpg”, “.JPEG” or “.jpeg”		003 group		002 track.mp3
