MP3 disc playback
This system can play MP3 tracks (files) recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW. We call such a disc “MP3 disc” in this manual.
• Before using the remote control, press DVD to change the remote control operation mode for the MP3 disc
operations.
• When playing back an MP3 disc, set “MP3/JPEG” on the PICTURE menu of the choice menu to “MP3” (see page 57).
• Turn on your TV, and select the correct input mode on the TV.
If “ ” appears on the TV screen when pressing a button, the disc cannot accept an operation you have tried to do.
7 NOTES for MP3 disc
• MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer read-
out time. (The time differs depending on the complexity of
the group (folder)/track (file) configuration.)
• When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2 as the disc format.
• This system supports “multi-session” discs (up to 5
sessions).
• This system can not play “packet write” discs.
• This system can play MP3 files only with the following file
extensions: “.MP3,” “.Mp3,” “.mP3,” and “.mp3.”
• ID3* tags cannot be shown on the display.
* An MP3 file can contain file information called “ID3 Tag” where
its album name, performer, track title, etc. are recorded. There
are two versions—ID3v1 (ID3 Tag version 1) and ID3v2 (ID3
Tag version 2).
• It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at a
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This
system cannot play back files recorded at the rate of under
64 kbps.
• If both MP3 files and JPEG files are recorded on a disc, set
the MP3/JPEG setting on the PICTURE menu to “MP3.”
(See page 57.)
• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their
disc characteristics or recording conditions.
