•Quantization bit: 16 bit, 24 bit

•Number of channels: 2

•Variable bit-rates (VBR) are supported. (Playing times may display incorrectly with VBR.)

•WMA files must have a “.wma” or “.WMA” filename extension.

■WAV

22.05kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 64 kHz,

88.2kHz, and 96 kHz are supported. Incompatible files cannot be played.

•Quantization bit: 8 bit, 16 bit, 24 bit

•Number of channels: 2

•Variable bit-rates (VBR) are supported. (Playing times may display incorrectly with VBR.)

•FLAC files must have a “.flac” or “.FLAC” filename extension.
