The data medium configuration or the devices or programs used for recording can cause individual tracks or data medium to be unreadable. Information can be found on the Internet on the best ways to create audio files, video files and data media (compression rate, ID3 tag etc.).
Due to the larger quantity of data, it takes longer to read a data medium containing compressed audio files (such as MP3, WMA) than a “normal” audio CD. Complex directory structures can also the delay the reading process. If possible, only use data media with readable audio and video files.
Play lists only define a certain playback sequence. Play lists do not save any files. Play lists cannot be played if the files on the data medium are not saved in the location to which the play list is referring (relative data path). Play lists cannot be copied to the media center (HDD).
NOTICE
Do not use memory card adapters.
No liability can be accepted for damaged or lost files on the data media.

Files B on data media are often organized by means of folders  and play lists t to determine a certain playing order.
Files, folders and playlists on a data medium are sorted by name in alphanumerical order.
The illustration shows a typical audio data CD that contains tracks B, folders A and sub folders
⇒ fig. 154.
The tracks are played back as follows:
1. Tracks (1) and (2) in the CD's root directory
2. Track (3) and (4) in the first directory F1 in the root directory of the CD
3. Track (5) in the first subdirectory F1.1 of the directory F1
4. Track (6) in the first subdirectory F1.1.1 of the subdirectory F1.1
5. Track (7) in the second subdirectory F1.2 of the directory F1
6. Track (8) and (9) in the second directory F2
Play lists t are treated like directories in the playback sequence.
