To play a Multi Session CD
This player can play Multi Session CDs when an MP3 audio track is located in the
first session. Any subsequent MP3 audio tracks, recorded in the later sessions, can
also be played back. When audio tracks and images in music CD format or video CD
format are recorded in the first session, only the first session will be played back.
Notes
•If you put the extension “.MP3” to data not in MP3 format, the player cannot recognize the
data properly and will generate a loud noise which could damage your speaker system.
•The player cannot play audio tracks in MP3PRO format.
•This player supports MP3 audio tracks recorded with a bit rate of 128 kbps and a sampling
frequency of 44.1 kHz. Attempting to play MP3 audio tracks recorded with different
specifications may result in loud noise, sound skipping or speaker damage.

sequentially, from
1

selected album take priority over the next album in the same tree. (Example: C

.)
When you press O RETURN and the list of MP3 albums appears (page 86), the
albums are arranged in the following order: A t B t C t D t F t G.
