MP3/WMA Player Operations

■ File Names
Only a file with the “.mp3” or “.wma” extension
is recognized as an MP3 or WMA file. Always
save an MP3/WMA file with the “.mp3”/“.wma”
extension.
The “.mp3” or “.wma” file extension must be
single-byte lowercase letters.
ATTENTION
If a non-MP3/WMA file has the “.mp3” or “.wma”
file extension, it may be recognized erroneously
as an MP3/WMA file. When such file is played,
a very large noise is output and speakers may
be damaged. Do not save a non-MP3/WMA file
with the “.mp3” or “.wma” extension.
■ Multi-sessions
Multisessions are supported and CD-R/RW with
recorded MP3/WMA files can be played.
When written with “Track at once”, however,
finalize the disc with session close or write
protect.
■ Playing MP3/WMA
When you load a disc with MP3/WMA files, the
system first checks all files recorded on the
disc. If the disc has many files and folders, the
system may take a certain time to check them.
While the system is checking the disc, the
music that had been playing continues to play.
To quickly check files, we recommend that you
do not save non-MP3/WMA files and not to
create unnecessary folders on the disc.
Also, we recommend you to write the entire
data in a single session as the system takes a
longer time to read the CD control information
of a multi-session disc.
■ MP3/WMA Playing Time Display
It is possible that playing time will not be
correct, depending on the writing condition of
the MP3/WMA file.
• It is possible that playing time will not be correct
when VBR Fast Up/Down is operated.

Creating and Playing MP3/WMA Files
The making of MP3/WMA files by recording
from sources such as broadcasts, records,
recordings, videos and live performances
without permission from the copyright holder for
uses other than personal enjoyment is
prohibited.
■ Downloading From an MP3/WMA Music
Site on the Internet
You can find various types of MP3/WMA music
distribution sites including online shopping, trial
listening, and free downloading sites on the
Internet. You can download music files from
those sites by following their payment and other
downloading rules.
■ Converting a Music CD to MP3/WMA Files
Prepare a PC and a market-available MP3/
WMA encoder (conversion) software. (Some of
them are free.) Load a music CD on the PC's
CD-ROM drive and compress the music CD by
following the specified procedure of the MP3/
WMA encoder software. MP3/WMA-format
music data files are created. A 12cm music CD
(having a maximum of 74 minutes of recording/
650MB of data) can be compressed to 65MB
(about 1/10 of the original size).
