Compact Disc/USB memory with MP3
or WMA (where fitted)
Terms:
•MP3 — MP3 is short for Moving Pictures Ex-
perts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is the most well
known compressed digital audio file format. This
format allows for near “CD quality” sound, but at
a fraction of the size of normal audio files. MP3
conversion of an audio track from CD can re-
duce the file size by approximately 10:1 ratio
(Sampling: 44.1 kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with
virtually no perceptible loss in quality. MP3 com-
pression removes the redundant and irrelevant
parts of a sound signal that the human ear
doesn’t hear.
•WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA)* is a
compressed audio format created by Microsoft
as an alternative to MP3. The WMA codec offers
greater file compression than the MP3 codec,
enabling storage of more digital audio tracks in
the same amount of space when compared to
MP3s at the same level of quality.
•Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number of bits
per second used by a digital music files. The size
and quality of a compressed digital audio file is
determined by the bit rate used when encoding
the file.
•Sampling frequency — Sampling frequency is
the rate at which the samples of a signal are con-
verted from analog to digital (A/D conversion)
per second.
•Multisession — Multisession is one of the meth-
ods for writing data to media. Writing data once
to the media is called a single session, and writ-
ing more than once is called a multisession.
•ID3/WMA Tag — The ID3/WMA tag is the part
of the encoded MP3 or WMA file that contains
information about the digital music file such as
song title, artist, album title, encoding bit rate,
track time duration, etc. ID3 tag information is
displayed on the Album/Artist/Track title line on
the display.

•The names of folders not containing MP3/WMA
files are not shown in the display.
•If there is a file in the top level of the disc, [Root]
is displayed.
•The playback order is the order in which the files
were written by the writing software, so the files
might not be played in the desired order.

Troubleshooting guide:
Symptom Cause and Countermeasure
Cannot play Check if the disc was inserted correctly.
Check if the disc is scratched or dirty.
Check if there is condensation inside the player, and if there is, wait until the condensation is gone (about 1 hour) before
using the player.
If there is a temperature increase error, the CD player will play correctly after it returns to the normal temperature.
If there is a mixture of music CD files (CD-DA data) and MP3/WMA files on a CD, only the music CD files (CD-DA data)
will be played.
* Files with extensions other than “.MP3”, “.WMA”, “.mp3” or “.wma” cannot be played. In addition, the character codes
and number of characters for folder names and file names should be in compliance with the specifications.
* Check if the disc or the file is generated in an irregular format. This may occur depending on the variation or the setting
of MP3/WMA writing applications or other text editing applications.
Check if the finalisation process, such as session close and disc close, is done for the disc.
Check if the disc is protected by copyright.
Poor sound quality Check if the disc is scratched or dirty.
* It takes a relatively long time
before the music starts playing.If there are many folder or file levels on the MP3/WMA disc, some time may be required before the music starts playing.
Music cuts off or skips The writing software and hardware combination might not match, or the writing speed, writing depth, writing width, etc.,
might not match the specifications. Try using the slowest writing speed.
Skipping with high bit rate files Skipping may occur with large quantities of data, such as for high bit rate data.
* Move immediately to the next
song when playing.When a non-MP3/WMA file has been given an extension of “.MP3”, “.WMA”, “mp3”, or “.wma” or when play is prohibited
by copyright protection, the player will skip to the next song.
The songs do not play back in the
desired order.The playback order is the order in which the files were written by the writing software, so the files might not play in the
desired order.
* Only models equipped with the FM AM radio with CD player. For details, see “FM AM radio with CD player (where fitted)” later in this section.
