Before playing an MP3

The unit can play back MP3* files recorded on CD-ROM or CD-R or CD-RW. MP3 files are played in numerical then alphabetical order. The unit starts playback from the files with a digit at the beginning of the filename.

*An MP3 file (that has the “.mp3” extension) stores audio data compressed using MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme.

Within this section, we refer to what are called “MP3 file” and “folder” in PC terminology as “track” and “album,” respectively.

Notes

When you play a CD that is already inserted, CD play starts at the point where it stopped the previous time. A newly inserted CD starts from the first track.

A CD-R or CD-RW may take some time to start playing back, but this is not a malfunction.

If a CD-R or CD-RW with no data is inserted, “ERROR03” will appear on the display. The unit cannot play such discs.

Intro Play

You can locate a desired track by monitoring the first 10 seconds of all the tracks on a CD.

1Press INT during CD play. “INTRO” appears on the display.

2Press INT again when the desired track is played. The unit returns to normal CD play.

One Track Repeat Play

You can play a track repeatedly.

1Press REP1 during CD play.

“REP1” appears on the display.

To cancel One Track Repeat Play, press REP1 again.

Shuffle Play

You can play all the tracks in random order.

1Press SHUF during CD play.

“SHUF” appears on the display.

To cancel Shuffle Play, press SHUF again.

Note

During Shuffle Play, pressing r allows you to skip only to the beginning of the current track, not to the previous track.

Notes on MP3

MP3 tracks must be recorded on a disc in a format compliant with ISO 9660. Note, however, that the unit may not play such tracks in the order they were recorded.

The maximum number of playable tracks is 512 if the disc was recorded in compliance with the ISO 9660 level -1 standard (all names of albums and tracks must be within 12 characters).

The maximum number of playable tracks is 512 if the disc was recorded in compliance with the ISO 9660 level -2 standard (all names of albums and tracks must be within 31 characters).

The maximum allowable depth of nested albums is 8, including the root album (directory).

The unit can play only tracks having a file extension “.mp3.”

If a disc contains audio tracks plus MP3 tracks, the unit only plays the audio tracks.

With multisession discs, the unit can play up to 5 sessions. You cannot play an MP3 file having the session that is not closed.

The unit may not play tracks recorded with a packet-writing utility.

When playing a track converted with a bit rate of 8 kbps or VBR (variable bit rate), Intro playback may not work properly.

A non-MP3 track that has the “.mp3” file extension is not played.
