Root Directory

The root directory is treated as a
folder. All .mp3 files in the root
directory are accessed before
folders in the root directory.

Empty Directory or Folder

Empty folders and directories do
not display. The system ignores
empty directories and folders and
advances to the next directory
or folder that has .mp3 files in it.

No Folder

On a CD that contains only .mp3
files in the root directory the
next and previous folder functions
do not work.

On a CD that contains playlists
and .mp3 files the next and previous
folder functions search playlists
first and then search .mp3 files in
the root folder.

Order of Play

CDs that have playlists play the
tracks in the following order:

1. After the first track in the first

playlist ends, play continues
sequentially through all tracks
in each playlist

2. After the last track of the last

playlist ends, play restarts
from the first track of the first
playlist.

CDs that do not have playlists play
the tracks in the following order:

1. The first file in the root directory

plays.

2. After all files from the root

directory have played, files in the
folders play.

3. After playing the last file from the

last folder, play restarts with the
first file in the root directory.

File System and Naming

The radio display shows, track
names that are shorter than
39 characters. Names that are
longer are shortened. The track
name appears as:

The song name that is in the
ID3 tag.

The file name without the file
extension if the song name is
not in the ID3 tag.

Preprogrammed Playlists

Playlists are accessed before files
or folders in the root directory.

Preprogrammed playlists created
by WinAmp™, MusicMatch™,
or Real Jukebox™ software can
be accessed and are treated
as special folders containing
compressed audio song files.
