Playback order of MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV
files
When there are multiple folders containing MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV files,
the playback order of folders is automatically set when this unit reads the
media. The files in each folder are played back in the order in which the
files were recorded on the media, from the oldest date and time.
CD-R/CD-RW
For playback of files on CD-R or CD-RW , files in all folders on the first layer
are played first, next on the second layer, then next on the third layer, and
so on in this order.
USB memory device
For playback of files recorded on USB, files in the first folder on the first
layer are played first, next folders on the second layer in the folder, then
next on the third layer, and so on in this order. Then accordingly files on
another first layer are played.
%
• The playback order displayed on a PC may differ from the actual playback order.
• The playback order with a CD-R/CD-RW may differ, depending on the writing
software.
NOTE
• The playback order may differ from the order in which the folders or files were
recorded if you delete or add a folder or file on USB. This occurs because of data
recording specifications and is not a malfunction.
About Discs and Files
Files, such as MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV etc., recorded on CD-R/-RW and
USB memory device are divided into large segments (folders) and small
segments (files). Files are stored in folders, and folders can be placed for
storage in a hierarchy. The unit can recognize up to 8 levels of folders.
