Notes for MP3 discs
• MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer
readout time than normal discs. (It depends on the
complexity of the folder/file configuration.)
• When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2 as the disc format.
• This unit supports “multi-session” discs (up to 5 sessions).
• This unit cannot play “packet write” discs.
• This unit can play MP3 files only with the following file
extensions: “.MP3,” “.Mp3,” “.mP3,” and “.mp3.”
• ID3
*
tags cannot be shown on the display.
*
An MP3 file can contain file information called an “ID3
Tag” where its album name, performer, track title, etc. are
recorded. There are two versions—ID3v1 (ID3 Tag
version 1) and ID3v2 (ID3 Tag version 2).
• It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at a
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. The
unit cannot play back files made at bit rate under 64 kbps.
• If both MP3 files and JPEG files are recorded on a disc, set
the MP3/JPEG setting in the PICTURE menu to “MP3” (see
page 56).
• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their
disc characteristics or recording conditions.
The following functions are not available to MP3 disc
playback:
• Program playback
• Random playback
• Fast-forward/reverse playback
• On-screen bar
• Choice menus
Note:
• Some tracks on an MP3 disc are skipped and may not be played
back normally.
