About playing Dual Disc
• Dual Discs are two-sided discs that have a
recordable CD for audio on one side and a
recordable DVD for video on the other.
• Playback of the DVD side is possible with this
unit. However, since the CD side of Dual Discs
is not physically compatible with the general
CD standard, it may not be possible to play the
CD side with this navigation system.
• Frequent loading and ejecting of a Dual Disc
may result in scratches on the disc.
• Serious scratches can lead to playback prob-
lems on this navigation system. In some cases,
a Dual Disc may become stuck in the disc
loading slot and will not eject. To prevent this,
we recommend you refrain from using Dual
Disc with this navigation system.
• Please refer to the manufacturer for more
detailed information about Dual Discs.
MP3, WMA and AAC files
• WMA data can be encoded by using Windows
Media Player version 7 or later.
• This unit may not operate correctly depending
on the application used to encode WMA files.
• Depending on the version of Windows Media
Player used to encode WMA files, album
names and other text information may not be
correctly displayed.
• There may be a slight delay when starting play-
back of WMA/AAC files encoded with image
data.
• It is possible to play back multi-session com-
patible recorded discs.
• MP3/WMA/AAC files are not compatible with
packet write data transfer.
• The maximum number of characters for the file
and folder name is 64 characters, including
extension (.mp3, .wma, .m4a). However the
navigation system uses proportional font.
Therefore, the number of the characters that
you can display varies according to the width
of each character.
• In case of files recorded according to the
Romeo file system, only the first 64 characters
can be displayed.
• The folder selection sequence for playback and
other operations becomes the writing
sequence used by the writing software. For this
reason, the expected sequence at the time of
playback may not coincide with the actual play-
back sequence. However, there also is some
writing software which permits setting of the
playback order.
• Some audio CDs contain tracks that merge
into one another without a pause. When these
discs are converted to MP3/WMA/AAC files
and burned to a disc, the files will be played
back on this player with a short pause between
each one, regardless of the length of the pause
between tracks on the original audio CD.
• The sound quality of MP3/WMA/AAC files gen-
erally becomes better with an increased bit
rate. In order to be able to enjoy sound of a cer-
tain quality, we recommend using discs
recorded with a higher bit rate.
• This unit plays back files with the filename
extension (.mp3, .wma or .m4a) as a MP3/
WMA/AAC file. To prevent noise and malfunc-
tions, do not use these extensions for files
other than MP3/WMA/AAC files.
MP3 additional information
• Files are compatible with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0,
1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 formats for display of
album (disc title), track (track title), artist (track
artist) and comments. Ver. 2.x of ID3 Tag is
given priority when both Ver. 1.x and Ver. 2.x
exist.
• You can play back MP3 files in the frequencies
from 8 kHz to 48 kHz.
• This unit is compatible with the emphasis
function.
• There is no m3u playlist compatibility.
• There is no compatibility with the MP3i (MP3
interactive) or mp3 PRO formats.
• This unit can play recordings with bit rates
from 8 kbps to 320 kbps.
WMA additional information
• This unit plays back WMA files encoded by
Windows Media Player version 7, 7.1, 8, 9 and
10.
