Notes

When naming an MP3 file/WMA file, be sure to add the file extension “.mp3”/“.wma” to the file name.

During playback of a VBR (variable bit rate) MP3/ WMA file or fast-forward/reverse, elapsed playing time may not display accurately.

When the disc is recorded in Multi Session, only the first track of the first session format is recognized and played (any other format is skipped). The priority of the format is CD-DA and MP3/WMA.

When the first track is a CD-DA, only CD-DA of the first session is played.

When the first track is not a CD-DA, an MP3/WMA session is played. If the disc has no data in any of these formats, “NO MUSIC” is displayed.

If you play a high-bit-rate MP3, such as 320 kbps, sound may be intermittent.
