Directory playback setting

1. Press the DIRECTORY key on the remote control.

Or, use the DIRECTORY option in the PLAY

sub-menu to turn this mode on or off (see “Op

eration basics” on page 16).

Pressing the

MENU key or pushing the MULTI

JOG dial exits to normal mode.

NOTE

All MP3 ﬁles in a disc can be played back when

directory playback mode is off. The indicator MP3

lights up and only the total number of track will be

shown.

2. When stopped, use the MULTI JOG dial or SKIP

key to select desired directory for playback.

3. Press the

PLAY key to start playback in the di-

rectory.

Program or Repeat playback can be operated in

the selected directory also.

NOTE

MP3 ﬁle formatted at 44,1 kHz sampling rate and

128 kbps or higher are required, otherwise, that

MP3 ﬁle cannot be played back.

Total number of tracks

MP3 files recorded onto a CD are handled the same

way as files are handled in an ordinary PC, with some

MP3 files held within a directory. In addition, several

directories can be combined into one directory. This

results in multiple layers of directories and files.

When the Directory mode is on, only those files within

a selected directory are available for playback.

When the directory mode is off, the directory configu-

ration is ignored, and all MP3 files recorded on the disc

are available for playback. Please note that Program

playback and Repeat playback only function within

directories.

NOTE

Each MP3 ﬁle is handled as a track.

Directories that do not contain MP3 ﬁles directly

under them cannot be selected for playback. For

example, in the diagram below, under directory A

are directory B and directory C. If there are MP3

ﬁles in both directories B and C, directory A cannot

be selected for playback, but directory B and C can

be selected for playback.

The CD-RW901 can play back MP3 files recorded in

formats that conform to ISO9660 level 1, level 2, and

the Joliet extensions. Discs recorded in multiple ses-

sions may also be played back.

CDs containing MP3s to be played by the CD-RW901,

have their contents must be within the following maxi-

mum limits:

Number of directories: 255

Number of hierarchical structures: 8

Number of MP3 files: 999

Title size of MP3 files and directories: 255

Playing back MP3 files

During playback, titles are displayed in the following

order of priority:

ID3v2 > ID3v1 > file title

When stopped, the file title is displayed.
