Dvd Player) - Chevrolet 2008 Avalanche Owner's Manual

Using an MP3 (Radio with CD and

DVD Player)

MP3/WMA CD-R or CD-RW Disc
Compressed Audio or Mixed Mode Discs
The radio also plays discs that contain both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA files) and MP3/WMA files
depending on which slot the disc is loaded into. By default
the radio reads only the uncompressed audio (.CDA) and
ignores the MP3/WMA files on the DVD deck. On the CD
deck, press the CAT (category) button to toggle between
compressed and uncompressed audio format, the default
being the uncompressed format (.CDA).
MP3/WMA Format
Burning an MP3/WMA disc on a personal computer:
•
Make sure the MP3/WMA files are recorded
on a CD-R or CD-RW disc.
•
Do not mix standard audio and MP3/WMA files on
one disc.
•
The CD player (lower slot) is able to read and play
a maximum combination of 512 files and folders.
The DVD player (upper slot) is able to read
255 folders, 15 playlists and 40 sessions.
•
Create a folder structure that makes it easy to find
songs while driving. Organize songs by albums
using one folder for each album. Each folder
or album should contain 18 songs or less.
•
Avoid subfolders. The system can support up to
eight subfolders deep, however, keep the total
number of folders to a minimum in order to reduce
the complexity and confusion in trying to locate
a particular folder during playback.
•
Make sure playlists have a .m3u, .wpl or .pls
extension as other file extensions might not work.
•
Minimize the length of the file, folder, or playlist
names. Long file, folder, or playlist names, or a
combination of a large number of files and folders,
or playlists could cause the player to be unable
to play up to the maximum number of files, folders,
playlists, or sessions. To play a large number of
files, folders, playlists, or sessions, minimize
the length of the file, folder, or playlist name.
Long names also take up more space on the
display, potentially getting cut off.
•
Finalize the audio disc before burning it. Trying to
add music to an existing disc could cause the
disc not to function in the player.
