Notes on playing discs
• This system can playback MP3 files in the
format of MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3, MPEG 2
Audio Layer 3 and MPEG 2.5 Audio Layer 3.
• This system can playback Multi Session discs
when an MP3 file is located in the first
session. Any subsequent MP3 files, recorded
in the later sessions, can also be played back.
• The following discs/situations can increase
the time it takes to start playback:
– a disc recorded with a complicated tree
structure.
– a disc recorded in Multi Session.
– a disc to which data can be added
(non-finalized disc).
– when the files in another folder have just
been played back.
• When the disc is loaded, the system reads all
the files on that disc. If there are many folders
or non-MP3 files on the disc, it may take a
longer time for playback to begin or for the
next MP3 file to start playback.
• MP3 files are played back in the order that
they are recorded onto the disc.
• You are recommended not to save other types
of files or unnecessary folders on a disc that
has MP3 files.
• The system can only play back MP3 files with
the extension “.mp3”.
• Attempting to play back non-MP3 format files
that have the extension “.mp3” may result in
noise or malfunction.
• A folder that does not include an MP3 file is
skipped.
• The system can recognize the maximum of
– 150 folders (including the root folder).
– 300 MP3 files.
• Depending on the encoding/writing software,
recording device, or the recording media used
to record an MP3 file, you may encounter
problems such as can not play back, sound
interruptions and noise.
