If you have a disc that contains both MP3 files and JPEG images, you can choose to run these simultaneously, mixing the MP3 audio with your own images. The time interval can be chosen in the Picture Setting.

Also you can have the image files follow the audio signal: at the end of each audio track, the next JPEG image will be shown. To activate this feature select Follow Audio Track in the Picture Setting.

With such discs, you can also either listen to the MP3 audio or watch the JPEG video files only. In order to do so, in stop mode, click on the LIST MUSIC FILES or LIST PICTURES icons on the left part of the screen to select or deselect the desired format. Once done, the tracklist will only show the MP3 or JPEG files.
