CD-R Discs

Some CD-R discs may not be playable depending on the disc recording device (CD-Recorder or PC) and the condition of the disc.

Use a 650MB/74 minute CD-R disc.

Do not use CD-R discs over 700MB/80 minutes as they may not be played back.

Some CD-RW (Rewritable) media, may not be playable.

Only CD-Rs that are properly "closed" can be fully played. If the session is closed but the disc is left open, you may not be able to fully play the disc.

CD-R MP3 Discs

MP3 file names should contain no blank spaces or special characters (. / = +).

Use discs recorded with a compression/ decompression data rate greater than 128Kbps.

If the disc is not closed, it will take longer to begin playback and not all of the recorded files may be played.

For files encoded in Variable Bit Rate (VBR) format, i.e. files encoded in both low bit rate and high bit rate (e.g., 32Kbps ~ 320Kbps), the sound may skip during playback.

A maximum of 500 tracks can be played per CD.

A maximum of 300 folders can be played per CD.

CD-R JPEG Discs

A maximum of 999 images can be stored on a folder.

When playing a Kodak/Fuji Picture CD, only the JPEG files in the picture folder can be played.

Picture discs other than Kodak/Fuji Picture CDs may take longer to start playing or may not play at all.
