Additional Information

!The folder selection sequence for playback and other operations becomes the writing sequence used by the writing software. For this reason, the expected sequence at the time of playback may not coincide with the actual playback sequence. However, there also is some writing software which per- mits setting of the playback order.

!Some audio CDs contain tracks that merge into one another without a pause. When these discs are converted to MP3/WMA/ WAV files and burned to a CD-R/CD-RW/ CD-ROM, the files will be played back on this player with a short pause between each one, regardless of the length of the pause between tracks on the original audio CD.

Important

!When naming an MP3/WMA/WAV file, add the corresponding filename extension (.mp3,

.wma or .wav).

!This unit plays back files with the filename ex- tension (.mp3, .wma or .wav) as an MP3/ WMA/WAV file. To prevent noise and malfunc- tions, do not use these extensions for files other than MP3/WMA/WAV files.

MP3 additional information

!Files are compatible with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 formats for display of album (disc title), track (track title), artist (track artist) and comments. Ver. 2.x of ID3 Tag is given priority when both Ver. 1.x and Ver. 2.x exist.

!The emphasis function is valid only when MP3 files of 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz frequen- cies are played back. (16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1, 48 kHz sampling frequencies can be played back.)

!There is no m3u playlist compatibility.

!There is no compatibility with the MP3i (MP3 interactive) or mp3 PRO formats.

!The sound quality of MP3 files generally be- comes better with an increased bit rate. This unit can play recordings with bit rates from 8 kbps to 320 kbps, but in order to be able to enjoy sound of a certain quality, we recommend using only discs recorded with a bit rate of at least 128 kbps.

!You can only play back WMA files in the fre- quencies 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz.

!The sound quality of WMA files generally becomes better with an increased bit rate. This unit can play recordings with bit rates from 48 kbps to 320 kbps (CBR) or from 48 kbps to 384 kbps (VBR), but in order to be able to enjoy sound of a certain quality, we recommend using discs recorded with a higher bit rate.
