MP3 playing order
When selected for play folder up down
functions, files and folders are accessed in the
order in which they were written by the CD-

they are expected to be played may not match
the order in which they are actually played. You
may be able to set the order in which MP3 are
to be played by writing them onto a medium
such as a CD-R with their file names beginning
with play sequence numbers such as “01” to
“99”, depending on your CD writer.
For example, a medium with the following
folder/file hierarchy is shown below.

MP3 Mode Operations
What is MP3?
MP3 is an audio compression method and
classified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards.
This audio compression method has penetrated
into PC users and become a standard format.
This MP3 features the original audio data
compression to about 10 percent of its initial
size with a high quality sound. This means that
about 10 music CDs can be recorded on a CD-
R disc or CD-RW disc to allow a long listening
time without having to change CDs.
