Additional Information Appendix Additional Information ! Playback of discs recorded on a personal computer may not be possible, depending on the application settings and the environment. Please record with the correct format. (For details, contact the manufacturer of the application.) ! Playback of CD-R/CD-RW discs may become impossible in case of direct exposure to sunlight, high temperatures, or the storage conditions in the vehicle. ! Titles and other text information recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW disc may not be displayed by this unit (in the case of audio data (CD-DA)). ! This unit conforms to the track skip function of the CD-R/CD-RW disc. The tracks containing the track skip information are skipped automatically (in case of audio data (CD-DA)). ! If you insert a CD-RW disc into this unit, time to playback will be longer than when you insert a conventional CD or CD-R disc. ! Read the precautions with CD-R/CD-RW discs before using them. MP3 and WMA files ! MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3 and refers to an audio compression technology standard. ! WMA is short for Windows Media" Audio and refers to an audio compression technology that is developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by using Windows Media Player version 7 or later. ! With some applications used to encode WMA files, this unit may not operate correctly. ! Depending on the version of Windows Media Player used to encode WMA files, album names and other text information may not be correctly displayed. ! This unit allows playback of MP3/WMA files on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs. Disc recordings compatible with level 1 and level 2 of ISO9660 and with the Romeo and Joliet file system can be played back. ! It is possible to play back multi-session compatible recorded discs. ! MP3/WMA files are not compatible with packet write data transfer. ! The maximum number of characters which can be displayed for a file name, including the extension (.mp3 or .wma), is 64, from the first character. ! The maximum number of characters which can be displayed for a folder name is 64. ! In case of files recorded according to the Romeo file system, only the first 64 characters can be displayed. ! When playing discs with MP3/WMA files and audio data (CD-DA) such as CD-EXTRA and MIXED-MODE CDs, both types can be played only by switching mode between MP3/WMA and CD-DA. ! The folder selection sequence for playback and other operations becomes the writing sequence used by the writing software. For this reason, the expected sequence at the time of playback may not coincide with the actual playback sequence. However, there also is some writing software which permits setting of the playback order. ! Some audio CDs contain tracks that merge into one another without a pause. When these discs are converted to MP3/WMA files and burned to a CD-R/CD-RW/CDROM, the files will be played back on this player with a short pause between each one, regardless of the length of the pause between tracks on the original audio CD. Important ! When naming an MP3 or a WMA file, add the corresponding filename extension (.mp3 or .wma). En 103
