Writing Files into a Medium
When a medium containing MP3/WMA data is loaded, the unit checks all data. If the medium
contains many folders or non-MP3/WMA files, MP3/WMA play will be delayed, it may take time
for the unit to move to the next file, and searches may not be performed smoothly. Loading
such a medium may produce loud noise and cause damage to the speakers.
Do not attempt
to play a medium containing a non-MP3/WMA file with the MP3/WMA extension or a
medium containing non MP3/WMA files.

200 seconds for WMA recorded at 44.1kHz, 128kbps
Bit Rates

MP3 Playing Order
When selected for play, Folder Search, File Search or Folder Select, files and folders are
accessed in the order in which they were written by the CD writer. Because of this, the order in
which they are expected to be played may not match the order in which they are actually
played. You may be able to set the order in which MP3/WMA are to be played by writing them
onto a medium such as a CD-R with their file names beginning with play sequence numbers
such as "01" to "99". For example, a medium with the following folder/file hierarchy is subject to
Folder Search, File Search or Folder Select as shown below.

folder numbers.
It is not possible to check folders that
do not include MP3/WMA files.
