subsequent MP3 files recorded in later sessions can also be played back.
• This system can play a Multi Session CD when a JPEG image file is contained in the first session.
Any subsequent JPEG image files recorded in later sessions can also be played back.
• If MP3 files and JPEG image files in music CD format or video CD format are recorded in the first
session, only the first session will be played back.
