and starts playing back if the source is ready or connected.

Playing Back a Disc/USB Mass Storage Class Device

(see page 4)
• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
• For MP3/WMA playback...
– In this manual, “file” and “track” are interchangeably used

for MP3/WMA operations.

– This System can show the Tag data (Version 1).
– MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time than

regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/
file configuration.)

– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be

skipped. This result from their recording processes and
conditions.

– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or

Level 2 for the disc format.

– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the

extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the
letter case—upper/lower).

– It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at a

sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This
System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than
64 kbps.

– Playback order of MP3/WMA tracks may be different from

the one you have intended while recording. If a folder
does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are ignored.

• Do not use the following USB devices...
– Whose rating is other than 5 V and exceeds 500 mA.
– Equipped with special functions such as data security

functions.

– Divided by 2 or more partitions.
• For the USB mass storage class device playback...
– When connecting a USB mass storage class device, also

refer to its manual.

– Connect one USB mass storage class device to the System

at a time. Do not use a USB hub.

– This System is compatible with USB 2.0 Full Speed.
– You can play back MP3/WMA files in a USB mass storage

class device (maximum data transfer rate: 2 Mbps).

– You cannot play back a file larger than 2 Gigabyte.
– This System may not play back some USB mass storage

class devices and does not support DRM (Digital Rights
Management).

• This System can recognize up to 99 groups in a disc. The

total number of groups and tracks (in a disc) that can be
recognized by the System is 512 (for MP3/WMA).

• This System can recognize up to 99 groups and 9 999 tracks

(with a maximum number of 255 tracks in a group) in a USB
mass storage class device.

If you are having a problem with your System, check this list
for a possible solution before calling for service.

Disc/USB Mass Storage Class Device Operations

The disc/USB mass storage class device does not play.

\ The disc is placed upside down. Place the disc with the

label side up.

\ The disc is recorded with the “packet writing (UDF file

system).” It cannot be played. Check the files you want to
play back.

\ The USB mass storage class device is not connected

properly.

MP3/WMA groups and tracks are not played back as you
expect.

\ Playing order is determined when the groups and tracks

were recorded. It depends on the writing application.

The disc/USB mass storage class device sound is
discontinuous.

\ The disc is scratched or dirty.

\ MP3/WMA files have not been properly copied into the

USB mass storage class device.

Sounds from USB mass storage class device are
interrupted.

\ Noise and static electricity may stop the sound. In this

case, disconnect and connect the USB mass storage class
device again after turning off the System.

The disc tray does not open or close.

\ The AC power cord is not plugged in.

\ Disc ejection is prohibited (see page 4).

The following operations are explained using the remote control, unless mentioned otherwise. However, if the System has
