This Player is able to play CD-R or CD-RW discs recorded in MP3 format.
Regarding MP3 discs
• MP3 files are audio data compressed in MPEG1 Audio layer 3 file format.
“MP3 files” have “.mp3” as extensions.
• Some files that have “.mp3” extensions or files that have not been recorded
in MP3 format will produce noise or cannot be played.
• Some discs cannot be played depending on the actual CD-R/CD-RW disc
condition, the recording equipment and the disc’s recording.
• Data on the CD-R or CD-RW disc, which has not been recorded in MP3
format, audio tracks or has been recorded in other file formats except MP3,
cannot be played.
Playing MP3 discs
• Discs that have more than 1000 folders and files in total cannot be played.
• Some MP3 files are not played in the order they were recorded.
• The number of layers, which can be recognized, including files and folders,
is maximum 8.
• Only the first session of a multi-session disc can be played.
• When both audio tracks and MP3 files are recorded on a disc, audio tracks
will be played.
• Depending on the folder tree, reading MP3 files can take time.
(The more files there are, the longer the reading time. Therefore it is
recommended to lower the number of folders before recording.)
• Folder or track (file) names are limited to 8 characters. The folder / file
names are displayed in half-size, capital letters or half-size numbers. Folder
or track (file) names that go over 8 characters will be abbreviated, and some
names may not be displayed depending on the characters or symbols used.
• The playing time may not be correctly displayed during MP3 file playback.
• It is recommended to record data at a lower speed as data recorded at fast
speed can produce noise and may not be able to be played.
CAUTION
• It is impossible to make a digital copy by using a digital audio recording
device which outputs sound from discs in MP3 format through the optical
digital output jack of this Player.
