About JPEG Discs

The RDV-1040 can play back JPEG files on a home recorded CD-R/RW disc. We refer to a disc that contains JPEG files as a “JPEG disc” in this manual.

Note that if a disc contains both of MP3/WMA files and JPEG files, you can only play back files of the type selected by the MP3&WMA/ JPEG setting in the PICTURE preference display

On a JPEG disc, each picture is recorded as a file. Files are sometimes grouped into fold- ers by category, etc.

•A folder which has one or more files is re- garded as a group.

•A folder which does not directly contain any files is ignored.
