Entering File and Folder Names
Names using the code list characters are the only file names and folder names that can be
entered and displayed. Using any other character will cause the file and folder names to be
displayed incorrectly. The unit recognizes and plays only files with the MP3/WMA extension.
A file name entered with characters not on the code list may not play correctly.
Writing Files into a Media
When a media containing MP3/WMA data is loaded, the unit checks all data. If the media contains
many folders or non-MP3/WMA files, MP3/WMA play will be delayed, it may take time for the unit to
move to the next file, and searches may not be performed smoothly. Loading such a media may
produce loud noise and cause damage to the speakers. Do not attempt to play a media
containing a non-MP3/WMA file with the MP3/WMA extension or a media containing non
MP3/WMA files.
Bit Rates
The unit supports bit rates from 32 - 320 kbps.
