Play Order of MP3 Files

The order in which MP3 files are played from an MP3 disc depends on the number of folder levels on the disc and the names of the MP3 files. The priority of folders and file depends on the characters used in their names, with symbols having the highest priority, followed by numerals (0-9) and letters (A-Z). For example, with the MP3 disc hierarchy shown in the figure below, MP3 files are played in the sequence indicated by the numbers 1 to 9.

Note

One way to determine the order in which files at the same folder level are played is to add numerals to the beginning of the file names.

Example: 01xxx.MP3, 02xxx.MP3
