No Folder
When the CD-R or CD-RW disc
contains only compressed les, the
les are located under the root
folder. The next and previous folder
function does not display on a
CD-R or CD-RW disc that was
recorded without folders or playlists.
When the CD-R or CD-RW disc
contains only playlists and
compressed audio les, but no
folders, all les are located under
the root folder. The folder down and
up buttons search playlists (Px)
rst and then goes to the root folder.
Order of Play
Tracks recorded to the CD-R or
CD-RW disc are played in the
following order:
Play begins from the rst track in
the rst playlist and continues
sequentially through all tracks in
each playlist. When the last
track of the last playlist has
played, play continues from the
rst track of the rst playlist.
Play begins from the rst track in
the rst folder and continues
sequentially through all tracks in
each folder. When the last
track of the last folder has played,
play continues from the rst
track of the rst folder.
When play enters a new folder, the
display does not automatically
show the new folder name unless
the folder mode is chosen as
the default display. The new track
name displays.
File System and Naming
The song name that displays is the
song name that is contained in
the ID3 tag. If the song name is not
present in the ID3 tag, then the
radio displays the le name without
the extension (such as .mp3) as
the track name.
Track names longer than
32 characters or four pages are
shortened. Parts of words on the last
page of text and the extension of
the lename does not display.Preprogrammed Playlists
Preprogrammed playlists that were
created using WinAmp™,
MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™
software can be accessed, however,
they cannot be edited using the
radio. These playlists are treated as
special folders containing
compressed audio song les.

random, rather than sequential order.
To play MP3/WMA les from the
CD-R or CD-RW in random order,
press the pushbutton positioned
under the RDM label until Random
Current Disc displays. Press the
same pushbutton again to turn off
random play.
h(Music Navigator):Use the
music navigator feature to play
MP3/WMA les on the CD-R
or CD-RW in order by artist or
album. Press the pushbutton located
below the music navigator label.
The player scans the disc to sort the
les by artist and album ID3 tag
information. It could take several
minutes to scan the disc depending
on the number of MP3/WMA les
recorded to the CD-R or CD-RW
disc. The radio can begin playingwhile it is scanning the disc in the
background. When the scan is
nished, the CD-R or CD-RW begins
playing again.
Once the disc has scanned, the
player defaults to playing MP3/WMA
les in order by artist. The current
artist playing is shown on the
second line of the display between
the arrows. Once all songs by
that artist are played, the player
moves to the next artist in
alphabetical order on the CD-R or
CD-RW and begins playing

the CD-R or CD-RW and begins
playing MP3/WMA les from
that album.
To exit music navigator mode, press
the pushbutton below the Back
label to return to normal MP3/WMA
playback.Using an MP3 (Radio
with CD and DVD Player)
MP3/WMA CD-R or
CD-RW Disc
Compressed Audio or Mixed
Mode Discs
The radio also plays discs that
contain both uncompressed
CD audio (.CDA les) and
MP3/WMA les depending on which
slot the disc is loaded into. By
default the radio reads only
the uncompressed audio (.CDA)
and ignores the MP3/WMA les on
the DVD deck. On the CD deck,
pressing the CAT (category) button
toggles between compressed
and uncompressed audio format,
the default being the uncompressed
format (.CDA).MP3/WMA Format
To create an MP3/WMA disc on a
personal computer:
Make sure the MP3/WMA les
are recorded on a CD-R or
CD-RW disc.
Do not mix standard audio and
MP3/WMA les on one disc.
The CD player (lower slot) is
able to read and play a
maximum combination of
512 les and folders. The DVD
player (upper slot) is able to read
255 folders, 15 playlists and
40 sessions.
Create a folder structure that
makes it easy to nd songs while
driving. Organize songs by
albums using one folder for each
album. Each folder or album
should contain 18 songs or less.
Avoid subfolders. The system can
support up to eight subfolders
deep, however, keep the total
number of folders to a minimum in
3-86 Instrument Panel

order to reduce the complexity
and confusion in trying to locate a
particular folder during playback.
Make sure playlists have
a .m3u, .wpl or .pls extension
as other le extensions might
not work.
Minimize the length of the le,
folder or playlist names. Long le,
folder, or playlist names, or a
combination of a large number of
les and folders, or playlists could
cause the player to be unable to
play up to the maximum number
of les, folders, playlists, or
sessions. To play a large number
of les, folders, playlists, or
sessions, minimize the length of
the le, folder, or playlist name.
Long names also take up more
space on the display, potentially
getting cut off.
Finalize the audio disc before
burning it. Trying to add music to
an existing disc could cause the
disc not to function in the player.Root Directory
The root directory of the CD-R or
CD-RW disc is treated as a folder. If
the root directory has compressed
audio les, the directory is displayed
as F1 ROOT. All les contained
directly under the root directory are
accessed prior to any root directory
folders. However, playlists (Px) are
always accessed before root folders
or les.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists
somewhere in the le structure
that contains only folders/subfolders
and no compressed les directly
beneath them, the player advances
to the next folder in the le
structure that contains compressed
audio les. The empty folder
does not display.No Folder
When the CD-R or CD-RW disc
contains only compressed les, the
les are located under the root
folder. The next and previous folder
function does not function on a
CD-R or CD-RW that was recorded
without folders or playlists. When
displaying the name of the folder the
radio displays ROOT.
When the CD-R or CD-RW disc
contains only playlists and
compressed audio les, but no
folders, all les are located under
the root folder. The folder down and
the folder up buttons search
playlists (Px) rst and then goes to
the root folder. When the radio
displays the name of the folder the
radio displays ROOT.
Instrument Panel 3-87

Order of Play
Tracks recorded to the CD-R or
CD-RW disc are played in the
following order:
Play begins from the rst track in
the rst playlist and continues
sequentially through all tracks in
each playlist. When the last
track of the last playlist has
played, play continues from the
rst track of the rst playlist.
Play begins from the rst track in
the rst folder and continues
sequentially through all tracks in
each folder. When the last
track of the last folder has played,
play continues from the rst
track of the rst folder.
When play enters a new folder, the
display does not automatically
show the new folder name unless
the folder mode has been chosen as
the default display. The new track
name displays.File System and Naming
The song name that is displayed is
the song name that is contained
in the ID3 tag. If the song name is
not present in the ID3 tag, then
the radio displays the le name
without the extension (such as .mp3)
as the track name.
Track names longer than
32 characters or four pages are
shortened. Parts of words on the last
page of text and the extension of
the lename displays.
Preprogrammed Playlists
Preprogrammed playlists that
were created using WinAmp™,
MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™
software can be accessed, however,
they cannot be edited using the
radio. These playlists are treated as
special folders containing
compressed audio song les.Playing an MP3/WMA (In Either
the DVD or CD Slot)
Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc
partway into either the top or bottom
slot, label side up. The player
pulls it in, and the CD-R or CD-RW
should begin playing.
Depending on the format of the
disc, a softkey menu appears and
allows navigation of the disc.
The menu reads left to right as RDM
(Randomize song play order), a
Folder icon with left and right arrows
(to move up or down through
available folders), a PL tag if the
disc has a Playlist available, and a
Music Navigator tag. If a Playlist
tag is shown, toggling this key brings
up a Folder softkey only or the
menu as previously described.
If the ignition or radio is turned off
with a CD-R or CD-RW disc in the
player it stays in the player. When
the ignition or radio is turned back
on, the CD-R or CD-RW starts to
play where it stopped, if it was the
last selected audio source.
