Multisession disc formats are supported by the radio. Mul-
tisession discs may contain combinations of normal CD
audio tracks and computer files (including MP3 files). Discs
created with an option such as keep disc open after writing
are most likely multisession discs. The use of multisession
for CD audio or MP3 playback may result in longer disc
loading times.
Supported MP3 File Formats
The radio will recognize only files with the *.MP3 extension
as MP3 files. Non-MP3 files named with the *.MP3 extension
may cause playback problems. The radio is designed to
recognize the file as an invalid MP3 and will not play the
file.
When using the MP3 encoder to compress audio data to an
MP3 file, the bit rate and sampling frequencies in the
following table are supported. In addition, variable bit rates
(VBR) are also supported. The majority of MP3 files use a
44.1 kHz sampling rate and a 192, 160, 128, 96 or VBR bit
rates.
