ABOUT DISC/FILE
Playable discs/files
Discs

Files

CDs with one of the marks below on
the surface.

• Files in audio CD format and MP3/
WMA files on a finalized CD-R or
CD-RW.
• MP3/WMA files in a USB device.

MP3/WMA folders/tracks
configuration
This unit plays back MP3/WMA tracks as follows.
Hierarchy
Level 1

Level 2

Level 3

Level 4

Level 5

Folder with its play order
MP3/WMA track with its play order

Notes on discs/files
• MP3/WMA discs require a longer readout time
than regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity
of the folder/file configuration.)
• Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back
and will be skipped. This results from their
recording processes and conditions.
• When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660
Level 1 for the disc format.

• This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the
extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless
of the letter case upper/lower).
• It is recommended that you make each MP3 file
at a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at a bit rate of
128 kbps. Similarly each WMA file at a sampling
rate of 44.1 kHz and at a bit rate of 96 kbps.
• Playback order of MP3/ WMA files may be
different from the one you have intended when
recording. If a folder does not contain MP3/ WMA
files, it is ignored.
• This unit cannot play “packet write” discs.
• If a CD-RW has been recorded in a different
format, erase all data on the CD-RW completely
before recording on it.
• This unit can recognize up to 511 tracks and 255
folders on a disc and up to 999 tracks and 128
folders (up to 128 tracks in a folder) on a USB
device. Those exceeding the maximum numbers
cannot be recognized.
• The reflection factor of CD-RW is lower than that
of other CDs, possibly causing CD-RW to take
longer time to read.
• In this manual, “file” and “track” are
interchangeably used for MP3/WMA operations.

Important for USB device
For connecting/disconnecting:
• USB Memory and DAPs compatible with the
USB mass storage class specifications are
connectable.
• Always set the volume to the minimum level
when connecting or disconnecting a USB mass
storage class device.
• When connecting with a USB cable, use the USB
2.0 cable less than 1 m in length.
• You cannot connect a computer to the USB
MEMORY terminal of the unit.
• Connect one USB mass storage class device to
the unit at a time. Do not use a USB hub.
• You cannot charge the USB mass storage class
device through the USB MEMORY terminal.

REFERENCES
For playing back:
• When connecting a USB mass storage class
device, refer also to its manual.
• You can play back MP3/WMA files on a USB
mass storage class device (maximum data
transfer rate: 2 Mbps).
This unit may not play back some files even
though their formats are listed above.
• While playing back a file in a USB mass storage
class device, do not disconnect the USB mass
storage class device. It may cause malfunction
of both this unit and the device.
• This unit is compatible with USB 2.0 Full
Speed.
• You cannot play back a file larger than 2
Gigabytes.
• When playing a file of a large transfer rate,
sounds may be dropped during playback.
• This unit cannot recognize a USB mass storage
class device whose rating is other than 5 V and
does not exceed 500 mA.
• You cannot send any data to your USB mass
storage class device from this unit.
• Some USB mass storage class devices may not
be recognized or may not work properly.
• Some DAPs are not compatible with the unit.
• Copyrighted tracks (WMA-DRM* tracks) cannot
be played back on the unit.
