Using a Compressed Audio CD/DVD
Compressed Audio CD/DVD Format
There are guidelines that must be met, when
creating an MP3, WMA, or mixed disc. If the
guidelines are not met when recording a burned
disc, the disc may not play. The guidelines are:
•
ID3 tag information is displayed by the radio
if it is available. The radio supports ID3 tag
information v1.0, v1.1, and v2.0. The radio will
display a filename, song name, artist name,
album name, and directory name.
•
Maximum 32 characters, including spaces,
in a file or folder name.
•
The recommended maximum number of
folders is 100 with a maximum hierarchy of
three folders.
•
Create a folder structure that makes it easy to
find songs while driving. Organize songs by
albums using one folder for each album.
•
All playlist files (.m3u or.pls) must be removed
from disc contents. Playlists are not supported.
•
It is recommended that there is a maximum of
192 files on a CD-R(W) disc.

It is recommended that there is a maximum of
200 files on a DVD+R(W) disc.

compressed audio music navigator.

Scanning time will vary depending on the
number of files and folders on the disc.
