MP3 CD Mode

1.  To select the CD mode press the 

CD button

.

The MP-16 is able to play CD-R and CD-RW discs containing MP3 

 

fi les.

In MP3 mode the terms "album" and "fi le" are very important. "Album" 
corresponds to a folder on a PC, "File " to a PC or a CD -DA track. The 
device reads MP3 fi les with a maximum of 255 fi les per album. An MP3 
CD may not contain more than 512 fi les or albums in total. MP3  fi les must 
be created with an audio sample rate of 44.1kHz (this is normal for fi les 
created from CD audio content).

When burning CD-R and CD-RWs with audio fi les, various problems may 
arise which could lead to interference in playback. This can be caused 
by faulty software or hardware settings or by the CD being used. Should 
such problems arise, contact the customer services of your CD burner  or 
software manufacturer or look for relevant information, for example on the 
internet. When you are making audio CDs, observe all legal guidelines 
and ensure that the copyright of third parties is not infringed.
