Limitations on MP3

•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.

•This unit cannot play files recorded using packet write.

•If the disc includes both MP3 and normal audio data (CD-DA), the unit plays the type recorded in the inner part of the disc.

If the disc includes both MP3 and other types of audio data (e.g. WMA or WAV), the unit plays only the MP3.

•Depending on how you create MP3 files, they may not play in the order you numbered them or may not play at all.

Regarding CDs

Note on CD-R and CD-RW

This unit can play CD-R and CD-RW recorded with CD-DA or MP3. Use an audio recording disc for CD-DA and finalize∗ it when you finish recording. The unit may not be able to play some discs due to the condition of the recording.

∗A process performed after recording that enables CD-R/CD-RW players to play audio CD-R and CD-RW.
