Your MACHMP3 player is also equipped with an
anti-shock buffer for MP3 discs.
MP3 FILE DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
The MACHMP3 music system recognizes MP3 disc
file and directory (folder) structure as follows:
•There are two different modes for MP3 disc
playback: MP3 flat file mode (default) and MP3
directory mode.
•MP3 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.
•MP3 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 within that
directory.
•Creating discs with only one level of
subdirectories will help with navigation through
the disc files.
ERROR MESSAGES
You may experience an error message for the
following situations:
•NO DISC when the CD control is pressed and
there is not a CD present.
•DISC ERR when there is a damaged or unreadable
disc. Such as, data discs containing no .mp3 files,
or for data discs containing more than 255 files or
directories.
•CD ERR for any other disc malfunction.
