Folder
MP3 file
Notes on MP3 discs
When the disc is inserted, the unit reads all the files on that disc.
During this time, “READING” is displayed. If there are many folders
or non-MP3 files on the disc, it may take a long time for play to
begin or for the next MP3 file to start play.
We recommend that you do not save unnecessary folders or files
other than MP3 ones in the disc to be used for MP3 listening.
A folder that does not include an MP3 file is skipped.
Maximum number of files: 255
Maximum number of folders: 150 (including the root folder)
Maximum number of folders and files in total: 256
Maximum directory levels: 8
Folder names and file names can be displayed with up to 30
characters including quotation marks.
The characters A - Z, 0 - 9, and _ can be displayed on this unit.
Other characters are displayed as “_”.
This unit conforms to Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 of the ID3 tag
format. When the file has the ID3 tag information, “song title”, “artist
name” and “album name” can be displayed. If the file does not have
the ID3 tag information, “NO TITLE” appears instead of song title,
“NO ARTIST” appears instead of artist name and “NO ALBUM”
appears instead of album name. The ID3 tag information can be
displayed with up to 15 characters.
When naming, be sure to add the file extension “mp3” to the file
name.
If you put the extension “mp3” to a file other than an MP3 file, the
unit cannot recognize the file properly and will generate random
noise that could damage your speakers.
The file name does not correspond to the ID3 tag.
