Precautions when writing data to discs
Discs recorded in Packet Write mode or UDF (Universal Disc Format) cannot be played.
When writing data to a disc, always close the session or fi nalize the disc. Discs that have not been fi nalized or that have
sessions that were not closed may not play back correctly.
Depending on the specifi cations of the writing software used, the recorded folder names and fi le names may not be
displayed correctly.
Playback of multi-session discs or discs that contain large numbers of folders may take longer to begin than for normal
discs.
If you write audio fi les and music CD tracks (CD-DA format) to the same disc, the disc may not play correctly.
Before writing audio fi les to a disc, check that the fi les will play back correctly on the PC being used to write the fi les.
When writing ends, check that the written fi les are played back correctly.
Use the correct fi le extensions (mp3, wma, m4a) in the names of audio fi les. Files without fi le extensions will not be played.
Also, do not use audio fi le extensions (mp3, wma, m4a) for fi les that are not audio fi les.
For more information on fi le extensions, see “Supported Audio Files” on the next page.
