Naming folders and files
Single-byte characters between A and Z, single-byte numerals between 0 and 9, and the single-byte underscore(_) can be displayed. Ensure
that the extension log is attached to all file names.
• Never add the wrong extension log to any files, the equipment will assume that they can be played back, and this will produce loud noises
in the speakers, resulting in damage of adverse effects.
Note:
Folder names and file names are displayed up to 20 characters. When folder names and file names are recorded with more than 20 characters,
the names will be displayed in abbreviated form.
Confirming media and files
Check to ascertain that MP3/WMA files can be played back correctly on the personal computer in use prior to saving them onto the media.
Check to ensure that the saved file can be played back normally.
• It is not possible to confirm that files can be played back correctly while they are being saved onto the
media.
When saving files onto media
Ensure that the session is closed or finalized when data has been written on media. There are cases where
media on which the session has not be closed or finalized will not be played back correctly with this equipment.
• There are cases where the folder names and file names will not be displayed correctly depending on the
software used to save them.
• Do not store files or folders other than playable files on media to be played back with this equipment.
• It is recommended that ten or less sessions are stored when recording MP3/WMA files onto a media.
• In case of a multisession disc, some time may be required until playback begins.
• There are cases where playback is not possible when DivX/MP3/WMA/JPEG files (CD-ROM) and music CD
information (CD-DA) are saved on the same media.
