How are MP3 files recorded and played
back?
MP3 “tracks (files)” can be recorded in “groups” — folders
or directories, in PC terminology.
During recording, the tracks and groups can be arranged
similarly to the tracks and folders/directories of computer
data. “Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every track and
group can be linked to the root.
In compliance with ISO 9660, the maximum allowable
depth of nested directories — so called “hierarchy” — is
eight (inclusive of the root).
Playback order, track search order, and group search order
of the MP3 tracks recorded on a disc are determined by the
writing (or encoding) application; therefore, playback order
may be different from the one you have intended while re-
cording the groups and the tracks.
The illustration shows an ordinary example of how MP3
tracks are recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW, how they are
played back and how they are searched for on this unit.
• The numbers in circles next to the MP3 tracks ( )
indicate the playback order and search order of the MP3
tracks. Normally this unit plays back MP3 tracks in the
recorded order.
• The numbers inside the groups indicate the playback
order and search order of the groups on an MP3 disc.
Normally this unit plays back MP3 tracks in the groups
in the recorded order.
The groups marked with asterisk (*) will be skipped
since they do not include any MP3 tracks.
