Note

The unit displays up to 12 characters each for album/track name.

WMA and MP3 information

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 mini-

mum to avoid this.

Notes on WMA only

Noise may occur when playing WMA files.

When creating a WMA disc, ensure the copyright feature is off.

Notes on MP3 only

This unit is not compatible with ID3 tags.

This unit is not compatible with files with a sampling rate of 32 kHz.

If you play an MP3 track that includes still picture data, it will take some time before the music itself starts playing and the elapsed time will not be displayed during this time. Even after the track starts, the correct play time will not be displayed.
