Make a recording cont.
Files that have been written to the USB memory device are held in a folder called
'REC'.
Recordings are given filenames according to the source used for the recording.
The files are named as listed below. Two digits are added to the filename to allow
recordings to be numbered from 00 to 99 for each recorded source. The illustration
to the right shows the folders as they may appear on a PC running Windows with
files in the REC folder.
AUXnn - for recordings from the Auxiliary input
BT_nn - for recordings from Bluetooth devices
DABnn - for recordings from DAB radio
FM_nn - for recordings from FM radio
MEXnn - for recordings from external microphone
MINnn - for recordings from internal microphone
The filenames are created automatically by the radio when recording. In the event
that the filename matches a file already on the USB memory device, then the new
file will be named RECnn.mp3 instead to prevent overwriting the existing file.
Note:
The USB memory device should only be removed when recording is stopped.
Removing media while recording is in progress may corrupt data on the USB device
leading to the loss of files previously written.
The USB connection is intended to be used to allow the Opus radio to play files
from solid-state flash memory devices. The USB connection is not intended to be
connected to other USB devices such as computers or hard disk drives.
If you wish to make recordings from radio, we recommend recording from DAB
radio if possible since it is generally less susceptible to interference than FM radio.
If you need to record from FM radio, some interference may be picked up from the
memory device unless you have a strong signal.
