MP3 Format Compatibility
The file naming formats listed below are compatible with this unit:
• ISO 9660 – file name: 12 characters, file extension: 3 characters
• ISO 9660 – file name: 31 characters, file extension: 3 characters
• Joliet – 64 characters
If the file or folder name does not conform to ISO 9660 file system standards, it may not be displayed or played back correctly. Use the following settings
when compressing audio data for your MP3 disc:
• Transfer Bit Rate: 128kbps
• Sampling Frequency: 48kHz
When recording MP3 up to the maximum disc capacity, disable additional writing. For recording on an empty disc up to maximum disc capacity, use the
"Disc at once" setting.
MP3 Playing Order
When selected for play, files and folders (Folder Search, File Search or Folder Select) are accessed in the order they were written by the CD writer. As a
result, the order in which they are expected to be played may not match the order in which they are actually played. You may be able to set the order in
which MP3/WMA files are to be played by writing them onto a medium such as a CD-R with their file names beginning with play sequence numbers such
as "01" to "99".For example, a medium with the following folder/file hierarchy is subject to Folder Search, File Search or Folder Select, as shown below.
The VME 9114TS player will only recognize three folder levels and does not display folders containing only other folders. In the example above, the unit
will display folders 3, 4, 6, and 8, but not 2 and 7 since they do not contain any tracks directly. Folder 5 is not recognized at all since it is at the fourth
level.
