Audio CDs
CD-R/CD-RW (audio data/MP3 files*)
* Except for JAX-N44/S44
Discs that this system cannot play
•CD-ROMs
•CD-Rs/CD-RWs other than those recorded in the following formats:
–music CD format
–MP3 format that conforms to ISO96601) Level 1/Level 2, Joliet or Multi Session2)
•A disc that has a non-standard shape (e.g., card, heart).
•A disc with paper or stickers on it.
•A disc that has the adhesive, cellophane tape, or a sticker still left on it.
1)ISO9660 Format
The most common international standard for the logical format of files and folders on a CD-ROM. There are several specification levels. In Level 1, file names must be in the 8.3 format (no more than eight characters in the name, no more than three characters in the extension “.MP3”) and in capital letters. Folder names can be no longer than eight characters. There can be no more than eight nested folder levels. Level 2 specifications allow file names and folder names up to 31 characters long. Each folder can have up to 8 trees.
For Joliet in the expansion format (file and folder names can have up to 64 characters) make sure of the contents of the writing software, etc.
2)Multi Session
This is a recording method that enables adding of data using the Track-At-Once method. Conventional CDs begin at a CD control area called the Lead-in and end at an area called Lead-out. A Multi Session CD is a CD having multiple sessions, with each segment from Lead-in to Lead-out regarded as a single session.
CD-Extra: This format records audio (audio CD data) on the tracks in session 1 and data on the tracks in session 2.
Mixed CD: This format records data on the first track and audio (audio CD data) on the second and subsequent tracks of a session.

Notes on CD-R and CD-RW
•Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs cannot be played on this system depending upon the recording quality or physical condition of the disc, or the characteristics of the recording device. Furthermore, the disc will not play if it has not been correctly finalized. For more information, see the operating instructions for the recording device.
•Discs recorded on CD-R/CD-RW drives may not be played back because of scratches, dirt, recording condition or the driver’s characteristics.
•CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in multisession that have not ended by “closing the session” are not supported.
•The system may be unable to play MP3 format files that do not have the “.MP3” extension.
•Attempting to play non-MP3 format files that have the “.MP3” extension may result in noise or malfunction.
•With formats other than ISO9660 level 1 and 2, folder names or file names may not be displayed correctly.
•The following discs take a longer time to start playback.
–a disc recorded with complicated tree structure.
–a disc recorded in Multi Session.
–a disc to which data can be added (nonfinalized disc).
Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies
This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies are marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by this product.
Cautions when playing a disc that is recorded in Multi Session
•If the disc begins with a CD-DA session, it is recognized as a CD-DA (audio) disc, and playback continues until an MP3 session is encountered.
•If the disc begins with an MP3 session, it is recognized as an MP3 disc, and playback continues until a CD-DA (audio) session is encountered.
•The playback range of an MP3 disc is determined by the tree structure of files produced by analyzing of the disc.
•A disc with a mixed CD format will be recognized as a CD-DA (audio) disc.

Notes
•You cannot change the play mode during playback.
•Some time may be needed to start playback of discs recorded in complex configurations such as many layers.
•When the disc is inserted, the player reads all the tracks on that disc. If there are many albums or nonMP3 audio tracks on the disc, it may take a long time for play to begin or for the next MP3 audio track to start play.
•Do not save unnecessary albums or tracks other than MP3 ones in the disc to be used for MP3 listening. We recommend that you do not save other types of tracks or unnecessary albums on a disc that has MP3 audio tracks.
•An album that does not include an MP3 audio track is skipped.
•Maximum album number: 150 (including root folder)
•The maximum number of MP3 audio tracks and albums that can be contained on a single disc is 255.
•Playback is possible up to 8 levels.
•MP3 audio tracks are played back in the order that they are recorded on the disc.
•Depending on the encoding/writing software, recording device, or the recording media used at the time an MP3 audio track is recorded, you may encounter such problems as disabled playback, sound interruptions, and noise.
You can play all the tracks or a single track on a disc repeatedly.
MP3 audio tracks cannot be played on JAXN44/S44.
Press REPEAT until “REP” or “REP1” appears.
