Playing an MP3/WMA disc

•This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).

•This receiver can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and ID3 Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files and for WMA files.

•This receiver can display only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed (see page 47).

•This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below:

–Bit rate: 8 kbps — 320 kbps

–Sampling frequency:

48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1)

24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2) 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for WMA)

–Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/ Level 2, Romeo, Joliet, Windows long file name

•The maximum number of characters for file/ folder names vary among the disc format used (includes 4 extension characters—<.mp3> or <.wma>).

–ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters

–ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters

–Romeo*: up to 128 (72) characters

–Joliet*: up to 64 (36) characters

–Windows long file name*: up to 128 (72)

characters

*The parenthetic figure is the maximum number of characters for file/folder names in case the total number of files and folders is 313 or more.

•This receiver can recognize the total of 512 files, of 200 folders, and of 8 hierarchies.

•This receiver can play back the files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate).

The files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in elapsed time display, and do not show

the actual elapsed time. Especially, after performing the search function, this difference becomes noticeable.

•This receiver cannot play back the following files:

–MP3 files encoded with MP3i and MP3 PRO format.

–MP3 files encoded in an unappropriated format.

–MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2.

–WMA files encoded with lossless, professional, and voice format.

–WMA files which are not based upon Windows Media® Audio.

–WMA files copy-protected with DRM.

–Files which have the data such as WAVE, ATRAC3, etc.

•The search function works but search speed is not constant.

Changing the source

•If you change the source, playback also stops (without ejecting the disc).

Next time you select “CD” or “CD-CH” for the playback source, playback from where it has been stopped previously.

Image Link

•Image Link will not work in the following cases:

–If no <jll> file is included in an MP3/WMA folder.

–If Intro play is activated.

–If the source is changed to another from “CD.”

–If more than one <jll> file are included in a folder, a file with the youngest file number is used for the graphic screen.

Ejecting a disc

•If the ejected disc is not removed within

15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted again into the loading slot to prevent it from dust. (Disc will not play this time.)
