!MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3 and refers to an audio compression technology standard.

!WMA is short for Windows Media™ Audio and refers to an audio compression tech- nology that is developed by Microsoft Cor- poration. WMA data can be encoded by using Windows Media Player version 7 or later.

!WAV is short for waveform. It is a standard audio file format for Windows®.

!This unit may not operate correctly depend- ing on the application used to encode WMA files.

!Depending on the version of Windows Media Player used to encode WMA files, album names and other text information may not be correctly displayed.

!There may be a slight delay when starting playback of WMA/AAC files encoded with image data.

!This unit allows playback of MP3/WMA/ AAC/WAV files on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD- RW discs. Disc recordings compatible with level 1 and level 2 of ISO9660 and with the Romeo and Joliet file system can be played back.

!It is possible to play back multi-session compatible recorded discs.

!MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV files are not compati- ble with packet write data transfer.

Appendix

!	When playing discs with MP3/WMA/AAC/	English
	WAV files and audio data (CD-DA) such as
	CD-EXTRA and MIXED-MODE CDs, both
	types can be played only by switching
	mode between MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV and
	CD-DA.

! 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/ AAC/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/AAC/WAV file, add the corresponding filename extension (.mp3, .wma, .m4a or .wav).

!This unit plays back files with the filename ex- tension (.mp3, .wma, m4a or .wav) as an MP3/ WMA/AAC/WAV file. To prevent noise and malfunctions, do not use these extensions for files other than MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV files.
