Enjoying MP3/WMA

MP3 and WMA

Basic operations are the same as for CD-DA.

•	The folder and file names you enter on the computer
	become the album and track names on this unit.
•	There can be a maximum of 400 albums and 999 tracks.
•	Folders that do not contain MP3/WMA are skipped.
•	This unit is compatible with multisession, but if the
	number of sessions is large, it may take longer for play
	to start.

Disc format

Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended formats).

File format

• MP3 files must have the extension “.MP3” or “.mp3”.

• WMA files must have the extension “.WMA” or “.wma”.

To play in a certain order

Prefix the folder and file names with 3-digits numbers in the order you want to play them.

Files may not be recorded in numbered order if the prefixes have different numbers of digits.

For example: 1????.mp3, 2????.mp3, 10????.mp3. However, some writing software may also cause recording to occur in a different order.

Limitations on MP3/WMA play

•	This unit is not compatible with packet-write format.
•	This unit is not compatible with ID3 tags.
•	If you have recorded MP3/WMA on the same disc as
	CD-DA, only the format recorded in the first session can
	be played.
•	Recordings will not necessarily be played in the order
	you recorded them.
•	You cannot search while playing MP3/WMA. Program
	and random play work only within a single disc.
Note
•	You cannot play protected WMA tracks (“TRACK
	PROTECTED” appears). Consult the creator of the
	software you used to record the WMA tracks for details.
•	Noise may occur when playing WMA files.
•	It may not be able to play some CD-R/RW due to the

condition of the recording.
