Note:
●When naming directories and
tracks/files you should avoid using
accents and special characters.
You can use a maximum of 32
characters (including the “.MP3” file
extension) for track names and di-
rectory names.
If you like your files to be in the correct
order, you should use burner software
that places files in alphanumerical or-
der. If your software does not provide
this feature you also have the option of
sorting the files manually. To do so, you
should place a number (e.g. “001”,
“002”, etc.) at the beginning of each file
name - you must include the leading
zeros.
MP3 tracks can contain additional in-
formation such as the artist, album and
track names (ID3 tags). This device can
display ID3 tags (version 1). When cre-
ating (encoding) MP3 files from audio
files, you should use bit rates up to a
maximum of 256 kbits/sec.
This device can only play MP3 files that
have the “.MP3” file extension.
Notes:
To ensure uninterrupted playback,
●do not try changing the file exten-
sion to “.MP3” of any files other
than MP3 files and then attempt to
play them! The device will ignore
these invalid files during playback.
●Do not use “mixed” CDs containing
both non-MP3 data and MP3
tracks (the device only reads MP3
files during MP3 playback).
●Do not use mix-mode CDs contain-
ing both CD-audio tracks and MP3
tracks. If you try playing a mix-
mode CD, the device will only play
the CD-audio tracks.
