ID3 tags/WMA tags
This device supports ID3 tag v1 and v2.2.0, v2.3.0 and WMA
tag. The following files do not support compression, coding,

Media Player (Ver. 10 or 11), and then forward to the Portable

A USB memory device can hold up to 10,000 files/1,000 folders
(including Root Folders). Playback may not be performed if a
USB memory / Portable audio player device exceeds the
limitations described above.
Media supported
This device can play back USB memory / Portable audio player
media.
Corresponding File Systems
This device supports FAT 12/16/32.
Bit rate
This is the “sound” compression rate specified for encoding. The
higher the bit rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger
the files.
Sampling rate
This value shows how many times per second the data is sampled
(recorded). For example, music CDs use a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz,
so the sound is sampled (recorded) 44,100 times per second. The
higher the sampling rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the
larger the volume of data.
Encoding
Converting music CDs, WAVE (AIFF) files, and other sound files into
the specified audio compression format.
Tag
Song information such as track titles, artist names, album names,
etc., written into MP3/WMA/AAC files.
Root folder
The root folder is found at the top of the file system. The root folder
contains all folders and files.
