Precautions when creating an MP3 disc
●File extensions
1.Always add a file extension “.MP3” or “.mp3” to an MP3 file by using single byte letters. If you add a file extension other than specified or forget to add the file extension “.MP3” or “.mp3”, the file cannot be played. In addition, if you use upper case and lower case letters (capital and small letters) mixedly for file ex- tensions, normal play may not be possible.
2.Tracks are played in the order that they were recorded onto a disc. (Tracks might not al- ways be played in the order displayed on the PC.)
•Some noise may occur depending on the type of encoder software used while re- cording.
•Files created using LAME (Lame Aint MP3 Encoder) may not be played properly.
•In case of a track recorded at VBR (vari- able bit rate), the display for the play time of the track may be slightly different from the actual play time. Also, the recom- mended value of VBR ranges from 64 kbps to 320 kbps.
•Depending on the damage conditions of a file, it may occur that the file is not played and the next file is played instead. Also, if the damage is in a severe condition, play stops showing the “DISC ERROR” display.
After disc selection, the play mode is automati- cally engaged.

2.The folder name and filename can be dis- played as the title during MP3 play but the title must be within 31 and 27 single byte al- phabetical letters and numerals for the folder name and filename, respectively (without in- cluding an extension). Entering more letters or numerals than specified may cause an in- correct display.
●Folder structure
1.A disc with a folder having more than 8 hier- archical levels will conflict with the ISO9660 and playback will be impossible.
●Number of files or folders
1.A total of 255 files and folders are allowed. (However, the maximum number of folders must be within 254.) When the number of files and folders is more than 256, playback of tracks in excess of that number is impossible.
Pausing playback
1.Press the [s] button during playback. Playback pauses.
2.To resume playback,press the [s] button again, and playback resumes.
Skipping a track (searching)
1.Press the [a] or [d] button during play- back.
Tracks are skipped, as many as the times the button is pressed, and playback starts.
•Press the [d] button, and playback starts from the beginning of the next track.
•Press the [a] button, and playback starts from the beginning of the current track. When this button is pressed again within about 2 seconds, playback starts from the beginning of the previous track.
∗This operation skips the track over the folder.
