Multisession CDs
For multisession CDs, the content of the first
session determines how COMAND will proc-
ess the CD.
If the first session contains data in audio CD
format, for example, and the second session
contains MP3 tracks, COMAND will treat the
CD as a conventional audio CD. This means
that it is not possible to access the MP3
tracks.
If the first session contains MP3 tracks, for
example, and the second session contains
data in audio CD format, COMAND will treat
the CD as an MP3 disc. This means that it is
not possible to access the audio CD tracks.
File structure of a disc
When you create a disc with music files, the
tracks can be organised in folders. A disc can
contain a maximum of 4,000 tracks.
The disc may contain no more than eight
directory levels. Files beyond the eighth level
will not be recognised by the system.
Track and file names
When you create a disc with music files, you
can assign names to the tracks and folders.
COMAND uses these names accordingly for
the display. Empty folders or folders which
contain data other than MP3 or WMA tracks
are not displayed by COMAND.
If MP3 or WMA files are stored in the root
directory itself, the root directory will also be
treated as a folder. COMAND will then show
the name of the root directory as the folder
name.
You must observe the following when assign-
ing track names:
R
title names must have at least one charac-
ter.
R
title names must have the extension "mp3"
or "wma".
R
there must be a full stop between the track
name and the extension.
example of a correct track name:
Track1.mp3.
