Compile USB Data Carrier
For the radio system to recognize a USB data carrier, it
must be specied as mass storage device and
formatted in the FAT16 or FAT32 le system. The audio
les must be saved in MP3 or WMA format.
A maximum of 5000 tracks (without ID3 tags) can be
stored and used on a USB data carrier. The directories
and tracks can be selected and played back individually.
If audio les with ID3 tags are used, the maximum
number of usable tracks is reduced.
It cannot be guaranteed that all USB data carriers
available on the market work properly.
