MP3 disc playback

When you insert an MP3 (or WMA) disc, the player will begin playback from the first track in the directory.

However, MP3 discs can contain many more tracks than audio CD’s, so you may wish to search for a particular track to play. There are two search methods available.

TRACK SEARCH MODE

In disc playback mode, press the BAND button once. The LCD will display the word “TRACK.”

To begin searching, press SELECT or the UP/DOWN button. Then press and hold the UP or DOWN button to locate the desired track, and press SELECT to begin playback.

NAVIGATE THE CURRENT FOLDER

This mode permits you to navigate the file directory present on the disc.

To enter this mode, press BAND twice. The display will display “NAVIGA.” Press SELECT to enter this mode.

Use the UP and DOWN buttons to move up and down the directory of folders and files on the disc. To enter a subfolder , highlight it and press SELECT. You will then see the directory of that subfolder and can select tracks within it. So play a track, highlight it and push SELECT.

VIEWING MP3 FILE INFORMATION

Since many MP3 files are tagged with Music/Artist/Album (ID3-TAG) information, you can see this as a list by pressing AS/PS repeatedly.

The information will appear as a scrolling display, including the folder and file name as well as the ID3-TAG information.

Please note that if this information is not present in ID3-TAG version 1.0 or 2.0 format, it will not be displayed.
