burner characteristics, disc characteristics, the disc is

dirt on the optical pickup lens can also affect play-

MP3 Compatibility
MP3 discs must be ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2,
Romeo or Joliet compliant. Supported formats:
Mode 1, Mode 2 XA Form 1.
Folders can be up to eight levels deep.
MP3 les must be MPEG-1/MPEG-2 Audio Layer 3
format with a sampling rate of between 8 kHz and 48
kHz and a bit-rate of between 8 kbps and 320 kbps
(128 kbps recommended). Incompatible les cannot
be played.
Constant Bit Rate MP3 les are recommended, how-
ever, variable bit-rate (VBR) MP3 les between
8 kbps and 320 kbps are supported. (Playing times
may display incorrectly.)
MP3 les must have a .mp3 or .MP3 le name
extension. MP3 les without the proper extension will
not be recognized. To prevent noise and malfunction,
do not use these extensions for other types of les.
The CD receiver supports up to 499 MP3 les and
folders. Files and folders in excess of this cannot be
played. Note that if the le and folder structure is very
complicated, the CD receiver may not be able to read
or play all of the MP3 les on the disc.
Disc, le and folder names may contain up to 32 char-
acters.
The maximum time that can be displayed for a single
track is 99 minutes and 59 seconds.
The remaining time cannot be displayed when playing
MP3 les.
MP3 le and folder names (excluding the extension)
are shown on the display.
Multisession discs are supported, however, some mul-
tisession discs may take a long time to load and some
may not load at all. When burning CDs we recom-
mend that you use a single-session (disc-at-once), and
select Disc Close.
Normally, the music in the audio session of a CD
Extra disc is played. However, you can set the CD
receiver so that it plays any MP3 les in the data ses-
sion of a CD-R/RW disc instead. If the data session
contains no MP3 tracks, the audio session will be
played regardless. See MP3 Preferences on page 32
for more information.
The Emphasis is not supported.
