We refer to a disc that contains MP3 and/or WMA files as an "MP3/WMA disc" in this manual. Note that if a disc contains both of MP3/WMA files and JPEG files, you can only play back files of the type selected by the [MP3&WMA/JPEG] setting in the [PICTURE] preference display (see page 26). About MP3/WMA discs On an MP3/WMA disc, each song is recorded as a file (track). Files are sometimes grouped into folders by artists, album, etc. • Each file is regarded as a track. • A folder which has one or more files is regarded as a group. • A folder which does not directly contain any tracks is ignored. • Files which do not belong to any folder are grouped into "group 1." • The player recognizes up to 150 tracks per group, and up to 99 groups per disc. If there are files other than MP3/WMA files, they also count in the 150-file total. Max. 99 groups per disc Track 1.mp3 Track 2.mp3 Track 3.mp3 Group 1 Group 2 Group 4 Track 4.mp3 Track 5.mp3 Track 6.mp3 Max.150 tracks per group Group 3 Notes for making your own MP3/WMA disc using a CD-R/CD-RW disc • Select "ISO 9660" as the disc format. • As for MP3 files, we recommend you to record your material at a 44.1 kHz sampling rate, using the 128 kbps data transfer rate. • As for WMA files, make sure that the copyright feature is set to off. • As for WMA files, we recommend you to record your material at a bit rate of 64 kbps or higher.
