File System and Naming
The song name that displays is the song name that is
contained in the ID3 tag. If the song name is not
present in the ID3 tag, then the radio displays the file
name without the extension (such as .mp3) as the
track name.
Track names longer than 32 characters or four pages
are shortened. The display does not show parts of
words on the last page of text and the extension of the
filename is not displayed.

created using WinAmp™, MusicMatch™, or Real

no playlist editing capability using the radio. These
playlists are treated as special folders containing
compressed audio song files.
