MP3 CD playback

This unit can palyback CD discs recorded by the MP3 format (we refer to those discs as MP3 CD discs in this manual). Operations for MP3 CD discs are similar to those for Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions and differences.

What is MP3?

MP3 is the abbreviation of “MPEG1 Audio Layer 3”. MPEG Audio is a compression specification that compresses the audio portion only. This image compression method is used in DVD or Video CD, etc. The audio data has been compressed into about 1/10.

About MP3 CD disc

On an MP3 CD disc, each material (song) is recorded on each Track (file), which usually belongs to a Group (folder).

This unit can recognize up to 99 Groups and up to 254 Tracks per Group, however, the number of Tracks to be played back on a disc is limited to 1023.

If a disc includes more than 1023 Tracks, the unit stops detecting Tracks when the number of detected Tracks reaches 1023 and ignores the subsequent Tracks. The

unit also ignores any non-MP3 file in the disc.

NOTES for making a private MP3 CD using a CD-R/CD-RW disc:

Select “ISO 9660” as the disc format.

Do not select the “multi-session” recording.

Finalize the disc.

NOTES

The unit does not support “packet write” discs.

If there are any Tracks (files) which are stored on a disc directly and do not belong to any Group (directory), the unit recognized them as belonging to an independent Group.

The unit does not output a digital audio signal from DIGITAL OUT when playing back an MP3 CD disc.

The unit plays back Groups/Tracks on an MP3 CD disc in the alphabetical order.

For example, if there are three title Groups [one], [two] and [three] on a disc, the playback order is [one], [three] then [two]. Tracks in a Group are played back in the same way.

Therefore, an MP3 CD disc on the market may be played back in the different order from the order printed on its sleeve.
