zHints

If you add numbers (01, 02, 03, etc.) to the front of the track/file names when you store the tracks (or files) in a disc, the tracks and files will be played in that order.

Since a disc with many trees takes longer to start playback, it is recommended that you create albums with no more than two trees.

bNotes

The recorder will play any data with the extension “.mp3,” “.jpeg,” “.jpg,” “.avi,” or “.divx” even if they are not in MP3, JPEG, or DivX format.

Playing these data may generate a loud noise which could damage your speaker system.

Albums, tracks, or files containing characters such as ” * / : < > ? ¥ \ cannot be displayed or played.

The recorder does not conform to audio tracks in mp3PRO format.

The recorder may not play a DivX video file when the file has been combined from two or more DivX video files.

Depending on the disc, normal playback may not be possible. For example, the picture may be unclear, playback may not appear smooth, the sound may skip, and so on.

Depending on the disc, playback may take some time to start.

Some files cannot be played.

For MP3 audio tracks, JPEG image files, or DivX video files each, the recorder can play up to 200 albums on a DATA CD or DATA DVD. Up to 200 tracks and files under an album can be played. In total, no more than 9999 tracks and files in a disc can be played.

Proceeding to the next or another album may take some time.

This recorder supports MP3 audio bit rates up to 320 kbps.

Notes on copying JPEG image files/MP3 audio tracks

You cannot copy JPEG image files/MP3 audio tracks to the HDD if:

The total space used by JPEG image files/ MP3 audio tracks in the HDD equals 13 GB, or will exceed 13 GB after the file is copied.

The space set aside in the HDD for JPEG image files/MP3 audio tracks is limited to 13 GB. You cannot save JPEG image files/MP3 audio tracks over that capacity even if there is space for video recording.

The total number of JPEG image albums/ MP3 audio track albums on the HDD equals 200.

The total number of JPEG image albums on the HDD equals 100.

If 3,000 MP3 audio tracks are stored on the HDD, up to 2,500 JPEG image files can be copied.

MP3 audio tracks cannot be copied if 4,000 JPEG image files are stored on the HDD.

Note that the size of JPEG image files copied to the HDD may be automatically increased to fit the TV screen.

You cannot copy JPEG image files onto a DATA DVD finalised on other recorders or devices.

If a warning message indicating that the HDD is full appears, erase several albums or files to make space. For details on erasing files, see page 98 or 124.
