*When the System is in use, the display shows other items as well. For simplicity, we show here only the items described in this section.

This unit has been designed to playback the following CDs:

Audio CD

CD-R (CD-Recordable)

CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)

MP3/WMA disc (MP3/WMA files recorded on a CD-R or CD- RW)*

Only CDs bearing these marks can

be used with this System. However, Recordable ReWritable continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.)

can damage the System.

When playing a CD-R or CD-RW

User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD-ReWri- table) can be played back when they are already “finalized.”

Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.

CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflect- ance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.

*For MP3/WMA discs

This unit manages files and folders on MP3/WMA discs as “tracks” and “albums.”

Playback order of the MP3/WMA files (tracks) recorded on a disc are determined by the writing (or encoding) application; therefore, playback order may be different from the one you have intended while recording the files and the folders.

This unit shows the file (track) names and ID3v2 tags (only “Title”, “Artist” and “Album”) on the display after starts play; however, there is a limitation on available characters and some file names and ID3 tags are not shown correctly.

More about MP3/WMA discs

MP3/WMA discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout time. (It varies due to the complexity of the re- cording configuration.)

When making an MP3/WMA disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 as the disc format.

This unit does not support multisession recording.

This unit can play MP3/WMA files only with the following file extensions— “.mp3” and “.wma”.

Non-MP3/WMA files are ignored. If non-MP3/WMA files are recorded together with MP3/WMA files, this unit will take a longer time to scan the disc. It may also cause the unit to malfunction.

Some MP3/WMA discs may not be played back because of their disc characteristics or recorded conditions.

Caution for DualDisc playback

The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recom- mended.
