the following fixed bit rates: 32 kbps, 40 kbps, 56 kbps,
64 kbps, 80 kbps, 96 kbps, 112 kbps, 128 kbps,
160 kbps, 192 kbps, 224 kbps, 256 kbps, and 320 kbps

album are available for display by the radio when
recorded using ID3 tags version 1 and 2.

of the screen but plays both file formats in the order
in which they were recorded to the disc.

MP3 Format
