MP3/WMA/JPEG CD Information
This player can play back MP3/WMA/JPEG files recorded
on a CD-R or CD-RW.
MP3 is an audio file format, which compresses recorded music.
It was developed by Fraunhofer Gesellschaft in collaboration
with Thomson Inc. The main advantage of the MP3 format is
that it means CD-quality music tracks can be stored on a
personal computer.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is another audio file format
developed by Microsoft.
JPEG files are image files.
To create these files you need a Windows-PC with CD-ROM
drive and MP3/WMA/JPEG-encoding software (not supplied).
The Apple-HFS-System cannot be played.
Playback Limitations
• File names on a MP3/WMA/JPEG CD must include 3-digit
extension letters such as, “mp3”, “wma” or “jpg”.
• This unit can read 200 files per disc. Keep directory sizes to
200 files or less. Anything over that limit will be omitted.
• This unit is able to recognize up to a maximum of 50 directo-
ries per disc.
• If a CD has both audio and graphic files on the same CD, only
the audio tracks will play.
• It may take more than one minute for MP3/WMA/JPEG files
to play depending on their structure.
• Music recorded by “Joliet Recording Specification” can be
played back.
• The unit can play back baseline and progressive JPEG files.
• Music files recorded by “Hierarchical File System” (HFS)
cannot be played.
Notes on MP3/WMA/JPEG files
To play MP3/WMA/JPEG files in the recorded order,
1. Use MP3/WMA/JPEG software that records data alphabeti-
cally or numerically.
2. Name each file including a two-digit or three-digit number
(e.g. “01” “02” or “001” “002”).
3. Refrain from creating too many subfolders.
