Using an MP3 (Radio with CD or
Six-Disc CD Player)
MP3/WMA CD-R or CD-RW Disc
The radio plays MP3/WMA files that were recorded
on a CD-R or CD-RW disc. The files can be
recorded with the following fixed bit rates: 32 kbps,
40 kbps, 56 kbps, 64 kbps, 80 kbps, 96 kbps,
112 kbps, 128 kbps, 160 kbps, 192 kbps,
224 kbps, 256 kbps, and 320 kbps or a variable
bit rate. Song title, artist name, and album
are available for display by the radio when
recorded using ID3 tags version 1 and 2.
Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that contain both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA files) and
MP3/WMA files. By default the radio shows the
MP3/WMA label on the left side of the screen but
plays both file formats in the order in which
they were recorded to the disc.
MP3/WMA Format
If you burn your own MP3/WMA disc on a
personal computer:
•
Make sure the MP3/WMA files are recorded
on a CD-R or CD-RW disc.
•
Do not mix standard audio and MP3/WMA
files on one disc.
•
The CD player is able to read and play a
maximum of 50 folders, 15 playlists, and
a combined total of 512 folders and files.
•
Create a folder structure that makes it easy to
find songs while driving. Organize songs by
albums using one folder for each album.
Each folder or album should contain 18 songs
or less.
