To listen to an MP3 CD
This audio system allows you to play MP3 (MPEG
Audio Layer-3) files recorded on CD-ROMs,
CD-Rs (recordable CDs), and CD-RWs (rewritable
CDs) in ISO9660 Level 1/Level 2, Joliet, and Ro-
meo formats. Each disc can hold up to 255 files in
up to 100 folders, up to a maximum of 16 levels.
The ID3 tag information can be displayed during
MP3 playback. For information concerning ID3
tags, refer to “CD text and MP3 title display” on
page 5-21.
Push the CD button if a disc is already in the audio
system.
The
display shows “READING”, then playback
will begin.
The folder number, the track number, the playing-
time and “MP3” indicator will appear on the display.
NOTE
l
While
listening to a disc on which CD-DA

been recorded, you can switch between read-
ing of the CD-DA, reading of the MP3 files,
and the external audio input mode by press-
ing the CD button for 2 seconds or longer (un-
til you hear a beep).
For information on the external audio input
mode, refer to “To use the external audio in-
put function” on page 5-32.

With a disc that contains both CD-DA and
MP3 files, the CD-DA files are automatical-
ly played first.

The playback sound quality differs depend-
ing on the encoder software and the bit rate.
For more information, refer to the owner’s
manual for the encoder software.

Depending on the layout of the files and fold-
ers on the disc, it may take some time until
playback starts.

You may encounter trouble in playing an
MP3 or displaying the information of MP3
files recorded with certain writing software
or CD recorders (CD-R/RW drivers).

If you write many folders or files other than
MP3 files, it may take some time before play-
back starts.

For information on CD-Rs/RWs, refer to
“Notes on CD-Rs/RWs” on page 5-39.
