Playing MP3 folders
When selected for play, files and folders (Folder
Search, File Search or Folder Select) are accessed
in the order in which they were written to the media.
As a result, the order in which they are expected to
be played may not match the order in which they are
actually played.
You may be able to set the order in which MP3/
WMA files are to be played by assigning file names
beginning with play sequence numbers such as “01”
to “99”.
For example, a medium with the following folder/ file
hierarchyissubjecttoFolderSearch,FileSearchor
Folder Select.
See the diagram below.
The player will only recognize three folder levels and
does not display folders containing other folders. In
the example above, the unit will display folders 2,3, 5
and 7, but 1 and 6 since they do not contain others.
