20Audio modeDue to the larger quantity of data, the unit takes longer to read a data medi-um containing compressed audio files (MP3) than a “normal” audio CD.Complex folder structures can also slow down the reading of a data medi-um.
Playlists only determine a certain playing order. There are no files stored ina playlist. The unit will not play a playlist if the files are not stored on thedata medium at the locations referred to by the playlist (relative file paths).
Playing order of files and folders
Fig. 15
Example of anMP3 CD structure.
Audio files on data media are often sorted by folders and playlists todetermine a certain playing order.
Tracks, folders and playlists on a data medium are sorted by name in alpha-betic or numeric order.
Subfolders are treated like folders and numbered in accordance with the se-quence on the CD.
The illustration ⇒ Fig. 15 shows a typical MP3 CD that contains tracks ,folders and subfolders.
Accordingly, the tracks and folders on this CD are played and displayed inthe following order:
Tracks
1
and
2
in the root directory (ROOT) of the CD
Tracks

and
4
in the first folder F1 in the root directory of the CD(display: 01).
