MP3 operation
Permissible MP3 CDs
In MP3 mode COMAND can read CD-R
and CD-RW CDs.
Permissible file systems
The permitted file system is
ISO9669/Joliet for CD-R and CD-RW.
Multisession discs
With multisession discs, the content of
the first session determines how CO-
MAND treats the CD.
For example, if the first sesion contains
data in audio CD format and the second
session contains data in MP3 format, CO-
MAND will treat the CD as a convention-
al audio CD.
File structure
When creating an MP3 CD, you can orga-
nize MP3 tracks into folders. A folder can
also contain additional folders.
A CD may have a maximum of 255 fold-
ers in total.
A maximum of 255 tracks are permissible
per folder.
Mathematically a maximum of 65025
tracks would result. However, this
amount is usually not reached since MP3
requires approx. 1 MB storage per
minute recorded.
Track names and folder names
When creating an MP3 CD, you can as-
sign names to the MP3 tracks and fold-
ers.
COMAND uses these names in MP3-
mode for the corresponding display.
Please note the following when assign-
ing track and folder names:
Per folder a maximum of 1800 charac-
ters are available for title and folder
names combined. Exceeding this
number, COMAND cannot display all
titles and folders.
Names must contain at least 1 charac-
ter.
Names may contain up to fifty charac-
ters. If a name exceeds this character
limit, COMAND will not be able to
display it in full.
Track names must have the file exten-
sion “mp3”.
A period must appear between the
track name and the extension.
Example of a correct track name:
Track1.mp3.
Empty folders or folders containing data
other than MP3 tracks will not be dis-
played by COMAND.
Tips on creating MP3 CDs
i
CDs, software and hardware for writ-
ing audio data to CD are widely avail-
able. Therefore, we cannot
guarantee that COMAND will be able
to play every user-written CD.
Problems may be encountered during
playback of user-written CDs with a
storage capacity of more than
700 MB. These CDs do not meet valid
standards as of this printing.
