8. HOW TO USE DATACD
An alternate method of loading CD or CD+G songs into JB-99 is by DataCD. This method is particularly
useful when JB-99 is located in a remote area where connecting with a PC is not possible. We describe below
the instruction on how to make a DataCD and how to download the songs from DataCD to JB-99.
8.1 Making DataCD
8.1.1 Using JBManager program, capture the CD or CD+G songs from discs to prepare the graphic and audio
files (*.cdg and *.mp3) in PC.
8.1.2 Make the file names of the graphic and audio files as
00001.cdg
00001.mp3
00002.cdg
00002.mp3
...
8.1.3 Using a Notepad or Wordpad editor, make a text file named
Juke.txt
of the song list in the following form:
0 0 0 0 1 U n b r e a k M y H e a r t B r a x t o n / T o n y
0 0 0 0 2 A f t e r T h e L o v i n g H u m p e r d i n k / E n g l e b e
. . . .
Note 1: The song number (which matches the graphic and audio file names) must begin from Column 1 and end
at Column 5.
Note 2: Title of the song must begin at Column 6 and end before or at Column 44.
Note 3: Artist name must begin at Column 45 and end before or at Column 64.
Note 4: When completed, Juke.txt must be saved as a text file.
8.1.4 Using any CD writer program (e.g. Easy CD Writer), write a CD-ROM disc with the song files (00001.cdg,
00001.mp3, 00002.cdg, 00002.mp3, ...) and Juke.txt file. The format of the disc layout must be set to
ISO 9660
and
Mod 2:CDROM XA
. Also be sure to select
Close Disc
option and to write the disc at no more than
2x
speed.
Note: Reliability of the DataCD will depend on the quality of the CD-ROM disc used and the speed at which the
disc is written.
8.1.5 You have completed making DATA CD.
8.2 Downloading songs from DataCD to JB-99
There are two ways to download the songs of DataCD into JB-99. One is to use the internal disc tray of JB-99
and the other is to use an external CD-ROM drive (See Chapter
10. Optional Features
) attached to JB-99. For
both ways, the instruction to download the songs is the same and is given above in the Section
SYSTEM
SETUP
in the
Chapter
7. HOW TO OPERATE
. Note that an external CD-ROM drive can provide a faster
and more reliable downloading of songs. For instruction on how to attach an external CD-ROM drive, please
