Supported MP3 File Formats
The radio will recognize only files with the *.MP3 exten-

sion as MP3 files. Non-MP3 files named with the *.MP3

extension may cause playback problems. The radio is

designed to recognize the file as an invalid MP3 and will

not play the file.
When using the MP3 encoder to compress audio data to

an MP3 file, the bit rate and sampling frequencies in the

following table are supported. In addition, variable bit

rates (VBR) are also supported. The majority of MP3 files

use a 44.1 kHz sampling rate and a 192, 160, 128, 96 or

VBR bit rate.
