Playback order of MP3/WMA files

Notes

• When naming an MP3 file/WMA file, be sure to add

the file extension “.mp3”/“.wma” to the file name.

• During playback of a VBR (variable bit rate) MP3/

WMA file or fast-forward/reverse, elapsed playing

time may not display accurately.

• When the disc is recorded in Multi Session, only the

first track of the first session format is recognized

and played (any other format is skipped). The

priority of the format is CD-DA and MP3/WMA.

– When the first track is a CD-DA, only CD-DA of the

first session is played.

– When the first track is not a CD-DA, an MP3/WMA

session is played. If the disc has no data in any of

these formats, “NO MUSIC” is displayed.

Notes on MP3

• Be sure to finalize the disc before using on the unit.

• If you play a high-bit-rate MP3, such as 320 kbps,

sound may be intermittent.

Notes on WMA

• Files made with lossless compression are not

playable.

• Files protected by copyright are not playable.

If you have any questions or problems concerning

your unit that are not covered in this manual, consult

your nearest Sony dealer.

Maintenance

Fuse replacement

When replacing the fuse, be

sure to use one matching the

amperage rating stated on the

original fuse. If the fuse blows,

check the power connection and

replace the fuse. If the fuse

blows again after replacement,

there may be an internal

malfunction. In such a case,

consult your nearest Sony

dealer.

Note on DualDiscs

A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which

mates DVD recorded material on one side with

digital audio material on the other side. However,

since the audio material side does not conform to

the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this

product is not guaranteed.
