process the CD. COMAND plays only one

session and gives priority to the audio CD

session.
If possible, use COMAND to play only CDs

which were written in one session.

File structure of a disc

When you create a disc with compressed

music files, the tracks can be organized in

folders. A folder can also contain subfolders.

A disc can contain a maximum of 255 folders.

Each folder can contain a maximum of 255

tracks and 255 subfolders. A disc can contain

a maximum of 1200 tracks.
The disc may contain no more than eight

directory levels. Files beyond the eighth level

will not be recognized by the system.

Track and file names

When you create a disc with compressed

music files, you can assign names to the

tracks and folders.
COMAND uses these names accordingly for

the display. Folders which contain data other

than MP3 or WMA tracks are not displayed by

COMAND.
If MP3 or WMA files are stored in the root

directory itself, the root directory will also be

treated as a folder. COMAND will then show

the name of the root directory as the folder

name.
You must observe the following when

assigning track names:

R

track names must have at least one

character.

R

track names must have the extension

"mp3" or "wma".
