• The CD player is able to
read and play a maximum of
50 folders, 15 playlists, and a
combined total of 512 folders
and files.
• 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 .mp3
or .wpl extension (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.
Change playlists by using
S c and
c T folder buttons, the f knob,
or the SEEK arrows. An MP3/WMA
CD-R or CD-RW that was recorded
using no file folders can be played.
If a CD-R or CD-RW contains more
than the maximum of 50 folders,
15 playlists, and a combined total of
512 folders and files, the player
accesses and navigates up to the
maximum, but all items over the
maximum are not accessible.
Root Directory
The root directory of the CD-R or
CD-RW is treated as a folder. If the
root directory has compressed audio
files, the directory displays as the
CD label. All files contained directly
under the root directory are
accessed prior to any root directory
folders. However, playlists (Px) are
always accessed before root folders
or files.
If a disc contains both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA)
and MP3/WMA files, a folder under
the root directory called CD accesses
all of the CD audio tracks on the disc.
