Playing an MP3/WMA Disc or USB
The MP3 player will play files recorded on a CD-R up to 700 MB or on a USB stick of up to 1 GB. Files can
be recorded at a variable bit rate or the following fixed-bit rates: 32 Kbps, 40 Kbps, 64 Kbps, 80 Kbps, 96
Kbps, 112 Kbps, 128 Kbps, 160 Kbps, 192 Kbps, 224 Kbps, 256 Kbps, and 320 Kbps. Both single and
multi-session discs will play. Song title, artist name and album are available when discs are recorded using
ID3 tags, versions 1 and 2.
Files supported on USB sticks: MP1, MP2, MP3 (VBR) and WMA (ver. 9 and VBR).
Your MP3 player is able to read and play a maximum of 50 folders and playlists. Long files, folders or a
combination can reduce the number of files and folders that can be played. If you want to play a large
number of files or folders, minimize the length of the files and folders. You can also play an MP3/WMA
recorded without file folders. The system can support up to 11 levels of folder nesting. If a disc contains
more than 50 folders or 11 folder levels, your player will only let you access and navigate the maximum
number and will ignore additional items.
Root Directory
The root directory is treated as a folder. If the root directory has compressed audio files, the directory is
displayed as ROOT. All files contained directly under the root directory are accessed prior to any root
directory folders.
Empty Directory or Folder
If there is a root directory or folder in the file structure that contains empty folders/subfolders, play advances
to the next folder in the file structure that contains compressed audio files. The empty folder will not be
displayed or numbered.
No Folder
When a disc or USB stick contains only compressed files, the files are located under the root folder. The
next and previous folder functions have no function on a CD recorded without folders. When displaying the
name of the folder, the Radio displays ROOT.
File Name Display
A song title is displayed when contained in the ID3 tag. Titles longer than 16 characters scroll at a rate of 16
characters every 2 seconds until the entire name is shown.
