INFORMATION AND ADVICE
On a single disc, the CD player can read up to 255 MP3 fi les spread
over 8 folder levels with a maximum of 192 folders. However, it is
recommended that this be kept to 2 levels so as to limit the time taken
to access and play the CD.
Durin
g play, the folder structure is not observed.
In order to be able to pla
y a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recordingit is preferable to select standards ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it ma
y not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always usedfor an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum)for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case o
f a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is
recommended.
Do not connect a hard disk or U
SB device other than audio players to
the USB port. This may cause damage to your installation.
The audio s
ystem will only play fi les with ".mp3", ".wma" and ".wav" on
a CD and can play fi les with ".ogg" extension only on USB.
A high compression rate can adversely affect sound quality.
The pla
ylists accepted on CD, MP3, iPod and USB connection are
types ".m3u" and ".wpl".
The number of fi les reco
gnised is limited to 5 000 in 500 folders on a maximum of 8 levels.
