About MP3 audio tracks
You can play MP3 audio tracks on CD-ROMs, CD-Rs, or CD-RWs. However, the
discs must be recorded according to ISO9660 level 1, level 2, or Joliet format for the
player to recognize the tracks.
You can also play discs recorded in Multi Session.
See the instructions of the CD-R/RW device or recording software (not supplied) for
details on the recording format.
To play a Multi Session CD
This player can play Multi Session CDs when an MP3 audio track is located in the
first session. Any subsequent MP3 audio tracks, recorded in the later sessions, can
also be played back. When audio tracks and images in music CD format or video CD
format are recorded in the first session, only the first session will be played back.
