Playing MP3/JPEG discs
Notes
Depending on the software you use to create the DATA CD or DATA DVD, the playback order may differ.
The system can play back up to 200 albums, including albums that do not contain MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files. The system will not play back any albums beyond the 200th album.
The maximum number of MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files on an album which this system can recognize is:
600 when “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” is set to “AUDIO (MP3)” or “IMAGE (JPEG).”
300 when “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” is set to “AUTO.”
The system can play back MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files. The system will play back any data with the extension “.MP3”, “.JPG” or “.JPEG” even if they are not in MP3 or JPEG format. Playing this data may generate a loud noise which could damage your speaker system.
Depending on the encoding/writing software, recording device, or the recording media used to record an MP3 audio track, you may encounter problems such as cannot play back, sound interruptions and noise.
The following discs/situations can increase the time it takes to start playback:
a disc recorded with a complicated tree structure.
a disc recorded in Multi Session.
a disc to which data can be added (non- finalized disc).
when the tracks or files in another album have just been played back.
Some
When playing a DATA CD or DATA DVD containing both MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files, select “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” from the Control Menu after the disc’s TOC reading is complete. If you want to play back
both MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files, set “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” to “AUTO.”
MP3 audio tracks only, set “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” to “AUDIO (MP3).”
JPEG image files only, set “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” to “IMAGE (JPEG).”
The system can play back to a depth of 8 folders only.
