Using an MP3 (Radio with CD or
Six-Disc CD Player)
MP3 CD-R or CD-RW Disc
The radio plays MP3 files that were recorded on a
CD-R or CD-RW disc. The files can be recorded with
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
or a variable bit rate. Song title, artist name, and
album are available for display by the radio when
recorded using ID3 tags version 1 and 2.
Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that contain both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA files) and MP3 files.
By default the radio shows the MP3 label on the left side
of the screen but plays both file formats in the order
in which they were recorded to the disc.
MP3 Format
Burning an MP3 disc on a personal computer:
Make sure the MP3 files are recorded on a CD-R or
CD-RW disc.
Do not mix standard audio and MP3 files on one disc.
Make sure the CD does not have more than a
maximum of 50 folders, 15 playlists, and 512 folders
and files to read and play.
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.
Avoid subfolders. The system can support up to
eight subfolders deep, however, keep the total
number of folders to a minimum in order to reduce
the complexity and confusion in trying to locate a
particular folder during playback.
Make sure playlists have a .m3u extension as other
file extensions might not work.
Minimize the length of the file, folder, or playlist
names. Long file, folder, or playlist names, or a
combination of a large number of files and folders, or
playlists could cause the player to be unable to play
up to the maximum number of files, folders, playlists,
or sessions. To play a large number of files, folders,
playlists or sessions, minimize the length of the file,
folder, or playlist name. Long names also take up
more space on the display, potentially getting cut off.
Finalize the audio disc before burning it. Trying to
add music to an existing disc could cause the disc
not to function in the player.
