About MP3 Audio Tracks
and JPEG Image Files
What is MP3/JPEG?
MP3 is audio compression technology that
satisfies the ISO/MPEG regulations. JPEG is
image compression technology.
Discs that the player can play
You can play back DATA CDs (CD-ROMs/
CD-Rs/CD-RWs) recorded in MP3 (MPEG1
Audio Layer 3) and JPEG format. However,
the discs must be recorded according to
ISO9660 level 1, level 2 or Joliet format for
the player to recognize the tracks (or files).
You can also play discs recorded in Multi
Session.
See the instructions supplied with the CD-R/
CD-RW drives and the recording software
(not supplied) for details on the recording
format.
Note on the multi-session disc
If MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files are
recorded in the first session, the player will
also play MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image
files in other sessions. If audio tracks and
images in Music CD format or Video CD
format are recorded in the first session, only
the first session will be played back.
Note
The player may not be able to play some DATA
CDs created in the Packet Write format. In this case,
you cannot view the JPEG images recorded.
