MP3

You can play MP3 music that was recorded onto a CD-R or CD-RW by a computer.

Disc structure (example)

MP3

Album 1 (Folder)

 

Track 1 (File)

Track 2

Album 1.1

Track 1

Album 2

Since the MP3 format can store several albums onto a disc, a folder is assigned to an “Album,” and a file is assigned to a “Track.”

Additional note for MP3 disc playback:

The disc read time may exceed 10 seconds due to the large number of songs compiled onto one disc.

Multi-session discs are supported.

The digital output signals of MP3 files are copy- protected.

Downloading MP3 files from the internet or copying songs from your own legal discs is a delicate process.

Playback starts and the playlist appears automatically. If the disc includes both MP3 and JPEG files, the selection menu appears on the screen and asks you which file to play.
