Additional Information
• Some audio CDs contain tracks that merge into one another without a pause. When
these discs are converted to MP3/WMA/WAV files and burned to a CD-R/CD-RW/
CD-ROM, the files will be played back on this player with a short pause between
each one, regardless of the length of the pause between tracks on the original audio
CD.
Important
• When naming an MP3/WMA/WAV file, add the corresponding filename extension
(.mp3, .wma or .wav).
• This unit plays back files with the filename extension (.mp3, .wma or .wav) as an
MP3/WMA/WAV file. To prevent noise and malfunctions, do not use these
extensions for files other than MP3/WMA/WAV files.

MP3 additional information

• Files are compatible with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 formats for
display of album (disc title), track (track title), artist (track artist) and comments. Ver.
2.x of ID3 Tag is given priority when both Ver. 1.x and Ver. 2.x exist.
• The emphasis function is valid only when MP3 files of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz
frequencies are played back. (16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz
sampling frequencies can be played back.)
• There is no m3u playlist compatibility.
• There is no compatibility with the MP3i (MP3 interactive) or mp3 PRO formats.
• The sound quality of MP3 files generally becomes better with an increased bit rate.
This unit can play recordings with bit rates from 8 kbps to 320 kbps, but in order to
be able to enjoy sound of a certain quality, we recommend using only discs recorded
with a bit rate of at least 128 kbps.

WMA additional information

• WMA is short for Windows Media™ Audio and refers to an audio compression
technology that is developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded
by using Windows Media Player version 7 or later.
• You can only play back WMA files in the frequencies 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.
• The sound quality of WMA files generally becomes better with an increased bit rate.
This unit can play recordings with bit rates from 48 kbps to 320 kbps (CBR) or from
48 kbps to 384 kbps (VBR), but in order to be able to enjoy sound of a certain quality,
we recommend using discs recorded with a higher bit rate.
• This unit doesn't support the following formats.
– Windows Media Audio 9 Professional (5.1ch)
– Windows Media Audio 9 Lossless
– Windows Media Audio 9 Voice

WAV additional information

• This unit plays back WAV files encoded in Linear PCM (LPCM) format or MS
ADPCM format.
• You can only play back WAV files in the frequencies 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz,
32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz (LPCM), or 22.05 kHz and 44.1 kHz (MS ADPCM).
The sampling frequency shown in the display may be rounded.
• The sound quality of WAV files generally becomes better with a larger number of
quantization bits. This unit can play recordings with 8 and 16 (LPCM) or 4 (MS
ADPCM) quantization bits, but in order to be able to enjoy sound of a certain quality,
we recommend using discs recorded with the larger number of quantization bits.

About folders and MP3/WMA/WAV files

• An outline of a CD-ROM with MP3/
WMA/WAV files on it is shown below.
Subfolders are shown as folders in the
folder currently selected.
Notes
• This unit assigns folder numbers. The user
cannot assign folder numbers.
• It is not possible to check folders that do not
include MP3/WMA/WAV files. (These
folders will be skipped without displaying the
folder number.)
• MP3/WMA/WAV files in up to 8 tiers of
folders can be played back. However, there
is a delay in the start of playback on discs
with numerous tiers. For this reason we
recommend creating discs with no more
than 2 tiers.
• It is possible to play back up to 99 folders on
one disc.
