TRACK PLAYING MODE
When playing a CD-ROM with MP3 files,
the sound system will display the track
name and play time (e.g. “MIDNIGHT
MOTION 4:37”).
During playback the following operations
can be performed:
– continuous or single scroll on track
name
– scrolling tracks up or down according to
single, multiple or continuous mode
– scrolling folders up or down (see next
paragraph “FOLDER STRUCTURE”).DISP FUNCTION
This function enables to change display
settings for the different CD info (e.g. files,
folder, singer’s name, album name, etc.).
To turn this function on keep button 4
DISPpressed for over 2 seconds and then use
the button/knob ON/OFF to select the in-
fo to display.
In MP3 mode, the sound system will:
– play MP3 files only
– play the tracks in alphabetic-numeric or-
der for each folder (also ordered with the
same criteria) (it is recommended to put
a number before the file name, e.g. “01”,
“02” or “001”, “002”)
– return to the start of the last file each
time the sound system is turned on.During track selection (see paragraph
track selection (forward/backward), the
display will show the folder number and
the track number and name (e.g. “3/13
MIDNIGHT MOTION”).
To facilitate track selection, the sound sys-
tem stores the number of pushes on pre-
set buttons (1 to 6) and then will skip once
like for a single request.
IMPORTANT MP3 files recorded with the
variable bit-rate method could produce
discrepancies when displaying the track
play time.
IMPORTANT The CD player can read
most of the compression systems cur-
rently on sale (e.g.: LAME, BLADE, XING,
FRAUNHOFER) however, due to the
evolution of these systems, reading of all
compression formats is not guaranteed.
