DISPLAY INFORMATIONID3-TAG information display
In addition to the information relating to the time elapsed, the
name of the folder and the name of the file, the radio is also
capable of displaying ID3-TAG information relating to the Track
Title, Artist and Author.
The name of the MP3 folder shown on the display corresponds to
the name with which the folder was stored on the CD, followed by
an asterisk.
Example of a complete MP3 folder name: BEST OF *.
When ID3-TAG data is chosen to be displayed (Title, Artist, Album)
that has not been recorded for the track played, the information
will be replaced by that relating to the name of the file.
SELECTING NEXT/PREVIOUS FOLDERPress the
button to select a subsequent folder or press the
button to select a previous folder.
The display will show the number and the name of the folder (e.g.
“DIR 2 XXXXXX”).
XXXXXX: name of the folder (the display will only show the first 8
characters).
The folders are selected cyclically: the first folder is selected after
the last folder and vice versa.
If no other folder/track is selected in the next 2 seconds, the first
track on the new folder will be played.
If the last track in the folder at that moment selected is played, the
next folder will be played.
STRUCTURE OF THE FOLDERSThe radio with MP3 player:
❒recognises only the folders that contain MP3 format files;
❒if the MP3 files on a CD-ROM are structured in sub-folders, their
structure is compressed to a single level structure where the sub-
folders are taken to the level of the main folders.
