When skipping a portion of ID3 tag
ver.2 (at the beginning of the
track), sound is not output. Skip
time changes depending ID3 tag
ver.2 capacity. Example: At 64
kbytes, it is about 2 seconds (with
RealJukebox).
•
The displayed elapsed playing
time when skipping a portion of
ID3 tag ver.2 is inaccurate. For
MP3 files of a bit rate other than
128 kbps, time is not displayed
accurately during playback.
•
When an MP3 file is created with
MP3 conversion software (e.g.
RealJukebox - a registered
trademark of RealNetworks Inc),
ID3 ver.2 will automatically be
written.
MP3 navigation
MP3 tracks may be recorded on the
CD in several ways. They can all be
placed in the root directory like a
conventional audio CD, or they can
be placed in folders that may
represent, for example, an album, an
artist, or a genre.
The normal playing sequence on CDs
with multiple folders is to play the
tracks in the first folder, then the
tracks in any folder(s) nested inside
the first folder, then move onto the
second folder, and so forth. For
example, if folder 1 has folders 1a and
1b within it, and folder 2 contains
folder 2a, the playing sequence will
be folder 1, 1a, 1b, 2, 2a.
•
Press the up/down arrow buttons
to select another folder.
•
Press the left/right arrow buttons
to select another track (file) within
the folder.
