CADILLAC DTS 2009 1.G Owners Manual

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 can cause the player to be unable to play
up to the maximum number of les, folders, playlists,
or sessions. If you wish 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 you burn it. Trying to
add music to an existing disc can cause the disc not
to function in the player.
Playlists can be changed by using the
Scand
cTfolder buttons, theaknob, or the SEEK arrows.
An MP3/WMA CD-R or CD-RW that was recorded
using no le folders can also be played. If a CD-R or
CD-RW contains more than the maximum of 50 folders,
50 playlists, and 255 les, the player lets you access
and navigate up to the maximum, but all items over
the maximum cannot be accessed.
Root Directory
The root directory of the CD-R or CD-RW is treated as
a folder. If the root directory has compressed audio les,
the directory displays 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 contains only compressed les, the les
are located under the root folder. The next and previous
folder functions do not display on a CD that was recorded
without folders or playlists. When displaying the name of
the folder the radio displays ROOT.
When the CD 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.
3-111

Order of Play
Tracks recorded to the CD-R or CD-RW play 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.
Playlists can be changed by pressing
the
ScandcTfolder buttons,
the
aknob, or the SEEK arrows.
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 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. Playlists
must have a le extension of PLS, M3U, or WPL.
Playlists can be changed by using the
Scand
cTfolder buttons, theaknob, or the SEEK arrows.
Tracks cannot be changed. Songs are played
sequentially; press the
sREV or\FWD to reverse
or advance through the currently playing song.

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
