MP3 Overview
• MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3 and
refers to an audio compression technology
standard.
• This product allows playback of MP3 files on
CD-R or CD-RW discs.
• The unit can read MP3 files written in the
format compliant with ISO 9660. However
it does not support the MP3 data written by
the method of packet write.
• The unit can not read an MP3 file that has a
file extension other than ".mp3".
• If you play a non-MP3 file that has the ".mp3"
extension, you may hear some noise.
• In this manual, we refer to what are called
"MP3 file" and "folder" in PC terminology as
"Track" and "Album", respectively.
• Maximum number of directory level is 8, in-
cluding the root directory. Maximum number
of files and folders per disc is 256.
• The unit may not play tracks in the order of
track numbers.
• The unit plays only the audio tracks if a disc
contains both audio tracks and MP3 files.
• When playing a disc of 8 kbps or VBR*, the
elapsed playing time in the display window
will not be correct and also the intro play
may not function properly.
*VBR: Variable Bit Rate.
