Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that
contain both uncompressed CD
audio (.CDA files) and MP3/WMA
files. The radio plays both file formats
in the order in which they were
recorded to the disc.
MP3/WMA Format
Creating an MP3/WMA disc on a
personal computer:
• Make sure the MP3/WMA files
are recorded on a CD-R or
CD-RW disc.
• Do not mix standard audio and
MP3/WMA files on one disc.
• 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.
