“.mp3” as extensions. (Some files that have “.mp3” 

extensions or files that have not been recorded in 

MP3 format will produce noise or cannot be played.)
Playing the MP3 file format

recorded.

data recorded at a fast speed can produce noise and 

may not be able to be played.

•  The more folders there are, the longer the reading time.

time.

•  The playing time may not be correctly displayed during 

MP3 file playback.

MP3 file formats are recorded on a disc. (The disc is 

recognized to be an Audio CD [CD-DA] only tracks in 

Audio CD [CD-DA] format are played back.)

•  DivX playback may not be available depending on the 

DivX content and file.
