Writing files into a medium
When a medium containing MP3/WMA data is loaded, the
unit checks all the data on the medium. If the medium
contains a lot of folders or non-MP3/WMA files, therefore,
it takes a long time until the unit starts playing MP3/WMA.
In addition, it may take time for the unit to move to the
next MP3/WMA file or a Fi[e Search or Folder Search may
not be performed smoothly.

MP3/WMA playing order
When selected for play, Folder Search, File Search, or for
Folder Select, files and folders are accessed in the order in
which they were written by the CD writer.
Because of this, the order in which they are expected to be
played may not match the order in which they are actually
played. You may be able to set the order in which
MP3/WMA are to be played by writing them onto a
medium such as a CD-R with their file names beginning
with play sequence numbers such as "01" to "99",
depending on your CD writer.
