File System and Naming
The song name that is displayed is the song
name that is contained in the ID3 tag. If the
song name is not present in the ID3 tag, then
the radio displays the file name without the
extension (such as .mp3) as the track name.
Track names longer than 32 characters or 4 pages
are shortened. The display does not show parts
of words on the last page of text and the extension
of the filename is not displayed.
Preprogrammed Playlists
You can access preprogrammed playlists which
were created by WinAmp™, MusicMatch™,
or Real Jukebox™ software, however, you do
not have editing capability. These playlists
are treated as special folders containing
compressed audio song files.
Playing an MP3
Insert a CD partway into the slot, label side up.
The player pulls it in, and READING displays.
The CD should begin playing and the CD symbol
appears on the display. If you want to insert a
CD with the ignition off, first press the EJECT
button or the RCL knob.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD in the
player it stays in the player. When the ignition or
radio is turned on, the CD starts to play where it
stopped, if it was the last selected audio source.
As each new track starts to play, the track number
appears on the display.
The CD player can play the smaller 3 inch (8 cm)
single CDs with an adapter ring. Full-size CDs
and the smaller CDs are loaded in the same
manner.
If playing a CD-R, the sound quality may be
reduced due to CD-R quality, the method of
recording, the quality of the music that has been
recorded, and the way the CD-R has been
handled. There may be an increase in skipping,
difficulty in finding tracks, and/or difficulty in loading
and ejecting. If these problems occur, check the
bottom surface of the CD. If the surface of the
CD is damaged, such as cracked, broken,
or scratched, the CD will not play properly. If the
surface of the CD is soiled, see Care of Your
CDs on page 283 for more information.
If there is no apparent damage, try a known
good CD.
