MP3 Playing Order
When selected for play, files and folders
(Folder Search, File Search or Folder Select)
are accessed in the order in which they were
written to the media. As a result, the order in
which they are expected to be played may
not match the order in which they are actually
played. You may be able to set the order in
which MP3/WMA files are to be played by
assigning file names beginning with play
sequence numbers such as "01" to "99". For
example, a medium with the following folder/
file hierarchy is subject to Folder Search, File
Search or Folder Select as shown below.
