Using An Mp3 (Radio With Cd Or) - Pontiac 2009 Torrent Owner's Manual

Using an MP3 (Radio with CD or
Six-Disc CD Player)
MP3/WMA CD-R or CD-RW Disc
The radio plays MP3 and WMA files that were recorded
on a CD-R or CD-RW disc. The files can be recorded with
the following fixed bit rates: 32 kbps, 40 kbps, 56 kbps,
64 kbps, 80 kbps, 96 kbps, 112 kbps, 128 kbps,
160 kbps, 192 kbps, 224 kbps, 256 kbps, and 320 kbps
or a variable bit rate. Song title, artist name, and album
are displayed by the radio when recorded using ID3 tags
version 1 and 2.
Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that contain both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA files) and MP3/WMA
files. By default the radio reads only the uncompressed
audio and ignores the MP3/WMA files. Pressing the
CAT (category) button toggles between compressed
and uncompressed audio format.
MP3/WMA Format
If you burn 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 is able to read and play a maximum
of 50 folders, 50 playlists, and 255 files.
•
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
8 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 .mp3 or .wpl extension
(other file extensions might not work).
