● Do not use “mixed” CDs contain-
ing both non-MP3 data and MP3
tracks (the device only reads MP3
files during MP3 playback).
● Do not use mix-mode CDs con-
taining both CD-audio tracks and
MP3 tracks. If you try playing a
mix-mode CD, the device will only
play the CD-audio tracks.
Switching to MP3 mode
MP3 mode is activated in the same
way as normal CD mode. For further
information, please read the section
entitled “Switching to CD mode” in the
“CD mode” chapter.
If you connected an external display,
the following information is displayed
after the CD is read and the MP3/WMA
playback has started:
● Number of the track and number
of tracks in the directory.
● Bit rate of the file.
● Elapsed playing time and total
playing time of the track.
● Name of the directory.
● In the left column, the list of tracks
in the directory.
● In the right column, MP3 informa-
tion from the ID tags (only if avail-
able on the DVD/CD).
Note:
When naming directories and
tracks/files you should avoid using
accents and special characters.
You can use a maximum of 32
characters (including the “.MP3”
or “.WMA” file extension) for track
names and directory names.
If you like your files to be in the correct
order, you should use burner software
that places files in alphanumerical or-
der. If your software does not provide
this feature you also have the option
of sorting the files manually. For this
purpose, you must enter a number in
front of each file name, e.g. “001”,
“002”, etc. The leading zeros must also
be entered.
MP3 tracks can contain additional in-
formation such as the artist, album and
track names (ID3 tags). This device
can display ID3 tags (version 1).
When creating (coding) MP3 files from
audio files, you should use bit rates
from 80 to 320 kbit/s and sampling
rates of 32, 44 and 48 kHz.
This device can only play MP3 files that
have the “.MP3” file extension.
Notes:
To ensure uninterrupted playback,
● do not try changing the file exten-
sion to “.MP3” of any files other
than MP3 files and then attempt to
play them! The device will ignore
these invalid files during playback.
