However, the discs must be recorded according to ISO9660 Level 1/Level 2 or Joliet format and DATA DVDs of Universal Disk Format (UDF) for the recorder to recognize the files.

zHints

If you add numbers (01, 02, 03, etc.) to the front of the file names, the 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.
