Using an MP3 CD
MP3 Format
If you burn your own MP3 disc on a personal
computer:
Make sure the MP3 files are recorded on a
CD-R disc.
Do not mix standard audio and MP3 files on
one disc.
Make sure playlists have a .m3u or .wpl
extension, other file extensions may not work.
Files can be recorded with a variety of fixed or
variable bit rates. Song title, artist name, and
album will be available for display by the
radio when recorded using ID3 tags
version 1 and 2.
Create a folder structure that makes it easy
to find songs while driving. Organize songs
by albums using one folder for each album.
Each folder or album should contain 18 songs
or less.
Make sure to finalize the disc when burning
an MP3 disc, using multiple sessions. It is
usually better to burn the disc all at once.
The player will be able to read and play a
maximum of 50 folders, 50 playlists, 10 sessions,
and 255 files. Long file names, folder names,
or playlist names may use more disc memory
space than necessary. To conserve space on the
disc, minimize the length of the file, folder or
playlist names. You can also play an MP3 CD that
was recorded using no file folders. The system
can support up to 11 folders in depth, though,
keep the depth of the folders to a minimum
in order to keep down the complexity and
confusion in trying to locate a particular folder
during playback. If a CD contains more than the
maximum of 50 folders, 50 playlists, 10 sessions,
and 255 files the player will let you access and
navigate up to the maximum, but all items over
the maximum will be ignored.
Root Directory
The root directory will be treated as a folder.
If the root directory has compressed audio files,
the directory will be displayed as F1 ROOT.
All files contained directly under the root directory
will be accessed prior to any root directory
folders. However, playlists (Px) will always be
accessed before root folders or files.
