Playback order of MP3/WMA files

Notes
• When naming an MP3 file/WMA file, be sure to add

the file extension “.mp3”/“.wma” to the file name.

• During playback of a VBR (variable bit rate) MP3/

WMA file or fast-forward/reverse, elapsed playing
time may not display accurately.

• When the disc is recorded in Multi Session, only the

first track of the first session format is recognized
and played (any other format is skipped). The
priority of the format is CD-DA, ATRAC CD and
MP3/WMA.
– When the first track is a CD-DA, only CD-DA of the

first session is played.

– When the first track is not a CD-DA, an ATRAC CD

or MP3/WMA session is played. If the disc has no
data in any of these formats, “NO Music” is
displayed.

Notes on MP3
• Be sure to finalize the disc before using on the unit.
• If you play a high-bit-rate MP3, such as 320 kbps,

sound may be intermittent.

Notes on WMA
• Files made with lossless compression are not

playable.

•

Files protected by copyright are not playable.
