ENGLISH NAMES AND FUNCTIONS BASIC CONNECTIONS BASIC OPERATIONS ADVANCED CONNECTIONS ADVANCED OPERATIONS OTHERS 7 Playing CD-R/CD-RW discs This unit can play back the CD-RW (ReWritable) discs as well as ordinary Audio CD and CD-R (Recordable) discs. • This unit can play back Audio CD format and CDR/CD-RW discs which contain MP3 music data. However, some discs may have problems such as unable to play, noise or sound distortion. * For details, please read the instruction manual provided with a CD recorder. • The CD-R and CD-RW discs should contain properly-recorded TOC information so that they can be played back. In CD recorders, the task of writing TOC information is referred to as finalizing the disc. Discs that are not finalized cannot be properly recognized as an Audio CD and played back by regular CD players and Super Audio CD players. For details, please read the instruction manual provided with a CD recorder. * TOC stands for Table Of Contents and contains information such as the total number of tracks and total playing time of the disc. • This player can only be used to play Audio CDDA format discs or discs on which MP3 or WMA audio data have been recorded. Do not attempt to play a disc containing other data, such as a CD-ROM for PCs, on this unit. • As the playback of a CD-RW disc necessitates partial change of the player setup, it may take longer time for reading the TOC information than when an Audio CD or CD-R disc is played. 7 Playing MP3 or WMA files This CD player can be used to play CD-R or CD-RW discs on which MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) or WMA (Windows Media Audio) format audio files have been recorded. Support for MP3 ID3 tags enables display of ID3 information, such as artist names, album titles, track titles and the like, if this information has been recorded with the tracks. • Windows Media and the Windows Logo are the registered trademark and trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and other countries. • Music that you have recorded that is subject to copyright laws is for personal use only, and cannot be used otherwise without the permission of the copyright holder.
