• If you add numbers (01, 02, 03, etc.) to the front of the track file names, the tracks will be
played in that order.
• A disc with many trees takes longer to start playback. Some discs with many trees cannot be
played back.
Notes
• Depending on the software you use to create the DATA CD or DATA DVD, the playback
order may differ from the illustration above.
• The playback order above may not be applicable if there are more than a total of 1000 albums
and tracks in the DATA CD or DATA DVD.
• A total of up to 999 files can be recognized for discs that contain both MP3 and JPEG files.
Files are recognized in the order that they were recorded. For example, if 990 JPEG files are
recorded then 100 MP3 files are recorded, the 990 JPEG files recorded first and only the first
9 MP3 files can be recognized.
• Depending on the disc contents, playback may take some time to start.
