TIPS FOR OPERATING THE AUDIO SYSTEM
� MP3 files are compatible with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1,
Ver. 2.2 and Ver. 2.3 formats. This system cannot display
disc title* (folder name), track title* (file name) and artist
name in other formats.
*: If equipped
� WMA/AAC files can contain a WMA/AAC tag that is used
in the same way as an ID3 tag. WMA/AAC tags carry
information such as track title* (file name) and artist
name.
*: If equipped
� This system can play back AAC files encoded by iTunes.
� The sound quality of MP3/WMA files generally
improves with higher bit rates. In order to achieve a
reasonable level of sound quality, discs* (USB memory
device) recorded with a bit rate of at least 128 kbps are
recommended.
*: If equipped
� The MP3/WMA player does not play back MP3/WMA files
from discs recorded using packet write data transfer (UDF
format). Discs should be recorded using “pre-mastering”
software rather than packet-write software.*
*: If equipped
� m3u playlists are not compatible with the audio device.
� MP3i (MP3 interactive) and MP3PRO formats are not
compatible with the audio device.
� When playing back files recorded as VBR (Variable Bit
Rate) files, the play time will not be correctly displayed if
the fast forward or rewind operations are used.
� It is not possible to check folders that do not include
AAC/AAC+ v2/MP3/WMA files.
� AAC/AAC+ v2/MP3/WMA files in folders up to 3 levels
deep can be played. However, the start of playback may
be delayed when using discs* (USB memory device)
containing numerous levels of folders. For this reason, we
recommend creating discs* (USB memory device) with no
more than 2 levels of folders.
*: If equipped
001.mp3
002.wma
Folder 1
003.mp3
Folder 2
004.mp3
005.wma
Folder 3
006.m4a
� The play order of the compact disc* (USB memory device)
with the structure shown above is as follows:
001.mp3 002.wma . . . 006.m4a
*: If equipped
� The order changes depending on the personal computer
and AAC/AAC+ v2/MP3/WMA encoding software you use.
