■
ID3/WMA Tags
You can store ID3/WMA tag character information such as track titles and artist names in an
MP3 and a WMA file.
This receiver supports ID3v.1.0 and ID3v.1.1 tags. This receiver supports the ISO 8859-1
codes only. Use only the ISO-8859-1 codes to record tags. If characters not included in ISO-
8859-1 codes are recorded, their display may be unreadable.
This receiver supports the WMA tag ASF revision (v1.20.02). WMA tags having only Unicode
are supported. Always use Unicode characters to enter the information.
■
Supported Media Types
You can play MP3/WMA files recorded on a CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW disc. Compared to CD-
ROM media commonly used for music discs, CD-R and CD-RW discs are fragile in high
temperature/high humidity environments and one section of the CD-R/CD-RW may become
incapable of playback. Fingerprints or scratches on the disc may prevent playback or cause
skipping during playback.
Sections of CD-R/CD-RW may deteriorate if left inside a vehicle for long periods of time.
We recommend that you store UV-sensitive CD-R and CD-RW discs in shield cases.
■

●
CD-ROM formats:

MP3/WMA files recorded in a format other than the one explained above may result in files

properly.
