TEXT

¡ You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs

recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface.

¡ CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and

high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside a car for extended periods may damage and make playback impossible.

¡ Some CD-R/RWs cannot be played back successfully due

to incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder (CD-R/RW drive) and the discs.

¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is

not closed.

¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain

other than CD-DA or MP3/WMA data (Video CD, etc.).

¡ Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc

for handling it.

Recording MP3/WMA files on a CD-media

¡ You are recommended to minimize the chances of mak-

ing a disc that contains both CD-DA files and MP3/WMA files.

¡ If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 or WMA files,

the songs may not play in the intended order, or some songs may not play at all.

¡ When storing MP3 data and WMA data on the same disc,

use different folders for each data.

¡ Do not record files other than MP3/WMA files and unnec-

essary folder on a disc.

¡ The name of MP3/WMA file should be added by rules as

shown in the following descriptions and also comply with the rules of each file system.

¡ You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA files or

displaying the information of MP3/WMA files recorded with certain writing software or CD recorders.
