MP3 file directory structure
The MACHtMP3 music system recognizes MP3 disc
file and directory (folder) structure as follows:
²There are two different modes for MP3 disc
playback: MP3 flat file mode (default) and MP3
directory mode.
²MP3 flat file mode ignores any directory structure
present on the MP3 disc. The player sequentially
numbers each MP3 track on the disc (denoted by
the .mp3 file extension) from T001 to T255.
²MP3 directory mode represents a directory
structure consisting of one level of directories
(folders). The CD player sequentially numbers all
MP3 tracks on the disc (denoted by .mp3
extension) and all directories containing MP3
files, from 01±01 to 99±99. The first two digits
denote the directory number and the last two
digits denote the track number wtihin that
directory.
²Creating discs with only one level of
subdirectories will help with navigation through
the disc files.
