How to use the MP3/WMA player
How to operate the MP3/WMA player
Only files with the MP3/WMA file extension ".mp3/.wma" can be recognized as MP3/WMA and
played. Be sure to save MP3/WMA files with the ".mp3/.wma" file extension.
Use half-width English capital letters to write "MP3" or "WMA" of the extension.
Multisessions are supported and CD-R/RW with recorded MP3/WMA files can be played.
When written with "Track at once", however, finalize the disc with session close or write
protect.
When a disc having MP3/WMA files recorded on it is inserted into the main unit, the system
first checks all the files on the disc. If the number of files and folders is large, the check will
take some time.
While the system is checking the disc, the music that had been playing continues to play.
In order to speed up completion of the file check, it is recommended that you avoid recording
files that are not MP3/WMA files and avoid establishing unnecessary folders.
In addition, it is recommended that you record all data in a single session because a
multisession disc takes time for CD control information acquisition.
It is possible that playing time will not be correct, depending on the writing condition of the
MP3/WMA file.
* It is possible that playing time will not be correct when VBR Fast Up/Down is operated.
Names of MP3/WMA folders and files within the same level are displayed in the following
order.
1. MP3/WMA files displayed first, by ascending order of numbers, letters.
2. Folders displayed next, by ascending order of numbers, letters.

If the ".mp3/.wma" file extension is attached to a file other than an MP3/WMA file,
that file will be mistakenly recognized by the main unit as an MP3/WMA file and
played, resulting in loud noise output that can damage the speakers. Be sure to
avoid attaching the ".mp3/.wma" file extension to files that are not MP3/WMA files.
