Discs that the player can play

You can play back DATA CDs (CD-ROMs/
CD-Rs/CD-RWs) recorded in MP3 (MPEG1
Audio Layer 3) and JPEG format. However,
the discs must be recorded according to
ISO9660 level 1, level 2 or Joliet format for
the player to recognize the tracks (or files).
You can also play discs recorded in Multi

CD-RW drives and the recording software
(not supplied) for details on the recording

If MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files are
recorded in the first session, the player will
also play MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image
