Notes on discs/files

For MP3/WMA playback...
This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter case upper/lower).
MP3/WMA discs require a longer readout time than regular discs. (It depends on the complexity of the folder/file
configuration.)
Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be skipped. This result from their recording processes and
conditions.
When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 for the disc format.
It is recommended to make the files at the following condition:
MP3/WMA files
MP3: 128kbps
WMA: 96kbps
Sampling frequency
MP3/WMA files: 44.1 kHz
Playback order of MP3/WMA files may be different from the one you have intended while recording. If a folder does not
include MP3/WMA files, they are ignored.
This unit cannot play "packet write" discs.
If a CD-RW has been recorded in a different format, erase all data on the CD-RW completely before recording on it.
This unit can recognize up to 999 tracks and 130 folders (groups) in a disc or USB device. Those exceeding the maximum
number cannot be recognized.
The reflection factor of CD-RW is lower than that of other CDs, possibly causing CD-RW to take longer time to read.
For JPEG playback...
This unit can play back JPEG files with the extension code <.jpg> or <.jpeg> (regardless of the letter case upper/lower).
It is recommended to make the files at 640 x 480 resolution. (If the files have been recorded at a resolution of more than 640
x 480, it will take a long time to be shown.)
This unit can play only baseline JPEG files*. Progressive JPEG files* or lossless JPEG files* cannot be played.
* Baseline JPEG format: Used for digital cameras, web, etc.
Progressive JPEG format: Used for web.
Lossless JPEG format: An old type and rarely used now.
