Specifying a directory for playback

Here’s how to use directory mode, in which you can playback the MP3 files within a specified directory of the MP3 disc.

<About directory playback>

A directory (also called a “folder”) is a hierarchical level on CD media or a hard disk.

If directory mode is on, only the files within the selected directory will be the target of your opera- tions, and functions such as program playback and repeat playback will all occur within the same direc- tory.

If directory mode is off, the directory structure of the disc is ignored, and all MP3 files on the disc will be subject to playback.

If you turn directory mode on, the MP3 files in the root directory (the top level that contains directory A and directory D in the above illustration) cannot be played.
