Playing an MP3/WMA Disc
The CD changer can also play CD-Rs
and CD-RWs compressed in MP3
and WMA format. When playing a
disc in MP3 or WMA, you will see
‘‘MP3 ’’or ‘‘WMA ’’on the upper
display. A disc can support more
than 99 folders, and each folder can
hold up to 255 playable files.
When there are more than 99 folders
on a disc, the upper display only
shows two digits. NOTE
: If a file on an MP3 or WMA
disc is protected by digital rights
management (DRM), the audio unit
displays FORMAT, and then skips to
the next file.
When playing a CD compressed in
MP3/WMA format, the audio control
display shows disc number, folder
name, file number, and elapsed time.
When playing a CD without this
information, the disc number, track
number, and the elapsed time are
shown on the audio control display. If the disc has a complex structure, it
will take a while to read the disc
before the system begins to play it.
Depending on the software the files
were made with, it may not be
possible to play some files, or display
some text data.
