y
You cannot use a DualDisc in the CD
player. If you insert a DualDisc into the
player, the disc may not come out again,
possibly causing the player to malfunc- tion. y In cold and/or rainy weather, dew can
form inside the CD player, preventing nor-
mal operation. If this happens, eject the
CD and wait for the player to dry out.y Skipping may occur when the CD player
is subjected to severe vibration (for exam-
ple, when the vehicle is driven on a roughsurface). y To remove a disc from the case, press
the center of the case and hold both edg-
es of the disc. If the disc surface is
touched directly, contamination could
cause poor tone quality. Do not touch thedisc surface. y
Use a clean disc whenever possible. If
there are deposits, wipe the disc surface
from the center outwa rd with a dry, soft
cloth. Be sure not to use a hard cloth, thin-
ner, benzene, alcohol, etc. y Do not use any disc that is scratched,
deformed, or cracked. Also, do not use
any disc that has a non-standard shape
(for example, a heart shape). Malfunctions
or problems might result. y A disc is vulnerable to heat. Never keep
it either in places exposed to direct sun-
light, near heaters or in vehicles parked in
the sun or on hot days.

MP3 audio „What is MP3?
MP3 (the name is an abbreviation of
‘MPEG Audio Layer 3’) is a compression
format for digital audio. It was developed
by the Motion Picture Experts Group. It
permits audio data to be shrunk by a factor
of approximately 10 with no loss of sound
quality, meaning that the audio on 10 con-
ventional CDs can be fitted onto a single
CD-R or CD-RW (assuming a bit rate of
128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).
NOTE y MP3 encoding and writing software
is not supplied with the audio system. y CD writing software is not supplied
with the audio system. „ Creating MP3 files
y To create a high-quality MP3 file, it is
advisable to have a high bit rate (128 kbps
or higher) and a high sampling frequency. y If a file is created with a variable bit rate
(VBR), the elapsed time during playback
may not be displayed correctly and the
sound may skip. y The sound quality during playback de-
pends upon the encoder and bit rate. De- tailed information can be found in the us-
er’s manuals for encoder software and writing software.y
A fixed bit rate of 128 kbps or higher is
recommended. „ Saving MP3 files on a disc
y Do not save any non-MP3 file on a disc.
Also, do not save any unnecessary folder on a disc. y If many folders and/or non-MP3 files are
saved on a disc, a delay will be caused be-
fore playback begins. y If a disc contains both Compact Disc-
Digital Audio (CD-DA) files and MP3 files,
the system will play only the CD-DA files.y Add the extension ‘.MP3’ to the name of
every MP3 file. The system will not play
any file that has either no extension or an
extension other than ‘.MP3’. y Do not add the extension ‘.MP3’ to the
name of any non-MP3 file. Doing so could
lead to speaker damage. y The system supports multi-session re-
cording, so disc-at-once recording is rec-
ommended. y The system does not support packet
writing software. y The system does not have a playlist
function.y The system may not be able to display
and play certain MP3 files depending on
500034

Audio 5-43
the writing software and CD recorder. yRecording must be performed using a
file system supported by the audio sys- tem. Otherwise, the audio system may not
play the MP3 files and may not display
folder titles and file titles. „ Supported file systems
The audio system supports the following
file systems: y ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2
y Apple Extension to ISO 9660
y Joliet
y Romeo
NOTE
The audio system does not support the
following file systems: yApple HFS
y UDF 1.50
y Mix CD (CD Extra)
„ Compression format
y MPEG 1 audio layer 3 (MP3)
Bit rate: 32 kbps – 320 kbps
Sampling frequency: 32, 44.1, 48 kHzy MPEG 2 audio layer 3 (MP3)
Bit rate: 8 kbps – 160 kbps
Sampling frequency: 16, 22.05, 24 kHz „
Numbers of folders and files
y Maximum number of folders: 255 (in-
cluding root folder) y Maximum number of files: 999 (maxi-
mum number in one folder: 255) y Maximum number of layers: 8
NOTE yNot all of the discs stored in MP3
files may be able to be played back. y Even if a folder contains no MP3
files, it is counted as a folder.y Writing software can rearrange fold-
ers and files such that the playback or-
der is different from the desired one. y The playback order for a given disc
can be different with different players. „ Copyright issues
Except with respect to copies made for
personal use, duplication, distribution, and
transmission of music and other copy-
righted material on a disc without permis-
sion from the copyright holder is illegal.
