PLAYING A CD -
The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1.2 & 2.5 Audio
Layer 3, is an audio compression standard which permits the
recording of several tens of music files on a single disc.
MP3
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW,
when recording it is preferable to select standards ISO 9660
level 1.2 or Joliet.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be played
correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is
always used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as
possible (4x maximum) for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet
standard is recommended.
The audio equipment will only play files with the extension
".mp3" with a sampling rate of 22.05 KHz or 44.1 KHz.
No other type of file (.wma, .mp4, m3u...) can be played.
It is advisable to restrict file names to 20 characters without
using special characters (e.g. : " " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing
or displaying problems.

anti-pirating systems, on original discs or
CDs copied using a personal recorder,

automatically.
If the player already contains a disc,
switch on the audio equipment and
press the CD source button briefly.
