ABOUT MP3/WMA FILES
The standard specication supported by this CD receiver is MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3 (with a sampling frequency of 32, 44.1 or 48 kHz.) This CD receiver does not support other standards such as MPEG-2 Audio Layer-3, MPEG-2.5 Audio Lyaer-3, MP1, or MP2. Generally, sound quality improves as the bit rate increases. The bit rate supported by MP3 ranges from 32 to 320 kbps, while that for WMA is 192 kbps or lower. We recommend that you use MP3/WMA les recorded at a bit rate of 128 kbps or higher with this CD receiver. Be absolutely sure that MP3/WMA les have the extension.MP3 or.WMA. Files with an extension other than.MP3 or.WMA and les without an extension cannot be played. (However, when using a Macintosh PC it is possible to play an MP3 le by adding the.MP3 extension to the end of a le name consisting of 30 or fewer half-space uppercase English letters and recording on a CD-R/RW.) A play list is not supported. During USB playback The maximum number of les and folders that can be displayed by this unit is limited to 255, respectively. This does not include les and folders that cannot be played by this unit. During CD playback The number of les, including folders, that can be displayed by this unit, is limited to a total of 255. The unit can display folder names and le names consisting of up to 30 characters. Japanese language display is not supported in the case of ID3 tag information and le names displayed when playing MP3 data. The unit only supports MP3 ID3-Tag Version 1. Sometimes the time is not displayed correctly when playing a variable bit rate le. Be sure to use ISO9660 Mode 1 or Mode 2 as the format when writing data to a CD-R or CD-RW. Data written later can also be played because multisession discs are supported. MP3/WMA les recorded using packet writing cannot be played. Reading track information may take time in some cases depending on the state of the data that has been recorded. Only CD-DA disks formatted for music can be played for CD-DAs formatted for music and enhanced CDs or mixed CDs that contain a mix of MP3/WMA les. WMA DRM playback (copyright protection) is not supported.
