If a file on a USB mass storage class device exceeds the following conditions, it may not be played back correctly:

Maximum data transfer rate: 2 Mbps

Maximum frame rate: 30 fps for progressive

Maximum file size: 2 GB

The System recognizes up to 150 tracks (files) per group, and 99 groups per disc/device. The total number of tracks (files) that the System can detect is 4000.

Information about the recording conditions for the files on a disc/ device

MP3/WMA files

The System supports MP3/WMA files recorded at a bit rate of 32 – 320 kbps and a sampling frequency of 16 kHz,

22.05kHz, 24 kHz*, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

It is recommended to record each file at a sample rate of

44.1kHz and at a data transfer rate of 128 (96*) kbps.

*For WMA only

WAV files

The System supports WAV files recorded at a quantization rate of 8 bit or 16 bit and a sampling frequency of 8 kHz, 11.025 kHz, 12 kHz, 16 kHz,

22.05kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

It is recommended to record each file at a sample rate of

44.1kHz and at a quantization rate of 16 bit Linear PCM.

JPEG files

It is recommended to record a file at 640 x 480 resolution. (If a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will take a longer time to be displayed.)

This System can only play baseline JPEG files.

ASF files

The System supports MPEG-4 files with the following conditions:

File format: ASF

Visual profile: MPEG-4 SP (Simple Profile)

Audio CODEC: G.726

Max. picture size: 352 x 288 (CIF)

Max. bit rate: 384 kbps

MPEG1/MPEG2 files

The stream format should conform to the MPEG system/ program stream.

720 x 576 pixels (25 fps)/720 x 480 pixels (30 fps) is recommended for the highest resolution.

This System also supports resolutions of 352 x 576/ 480 x 576/352 x 288 pixels (25 fps) and 352 x 480/ 480 x 480/352 x 240 pixels (30 fps).

The file format should be MP@ML (Main Profile at Main Level)/SP@ML (Simple Profile at Main Level)/MP@LL (Main Profile at Low Level).

Audio streams should conform to MPEG1 Audio Layer-2 or MPEG2 Audio Layer-2.

DivX files

The System supports DivX files whose resolution is

720 x 480 pixels or less (30 fps), and 720 x 576 pixels or less (25 fps).

Audio stream should conform to Dolby Digital (including multi-channel) or MPEG1 Audio Layer-3 (MP3).

The System does not support GMC (Global Motion Compression).

Files encoded in the interlaced scanning mode may not be played back correctly.
