MP3 is audio compression technology that 
satisfies the ISO/IEC MPEG regulations. 
JPEG is image compression technology.
You can play DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that 
contain MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image 
files.

You can play back DATA CDs or DATA 
DVDs recorded in MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio 
Layer III) and JPEG format.
However, this player only plays DATA CDs 
whose logical format is ISO 9660 Level 1/
Level 2 or Joliet, and DATA DVDs of 
Universal Disk Format (UDF).
Refer to the instructions supplied with the 
disc drives and the recording software (not 
supplied) for details on the recording format.

The player may not be able to play some DATA 
CDs/DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write 
format.

The player can play the following tracks and 
files:
– MP3 audio tracks with the extension 

“.MP3.”

– JPEG image files with the extension 

“.JPEG” or “.JPG.”

– JPEG image files that conform to the DCF* 

image file format.

* “Design rule for Camera File system”: Image 

standards for digital cameras regulated by JEITA 
(Japan Electronics and Information Technology 
Industries Association).

• The player will play any data with the extension 

“.MP3,” “.JPG,” or “.JPEG,” even if they are not 
in MP3 or JPEG format. Playing these data may 
generate a loud noise which could damage your 
speaker system.

• The player does not conform to audio tracks in 

mp3PRO format.

• Some JPEG files cannot be played.
• You cannot play MP3 audio tracks/JPEG image 

files in DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that contain 
DivX video files.

Albums play in the following order:
◆Structure of disc contents

,continued

When you insert a DATA CD/DATA DVD 
and press 

H, the numbered tracks (or files) 

are played sequentially, from 

1 through 7.

Any sub-albums/tracks (or files) contained 
within a currently selected album take 
priority over the next album in the same tree. 
(Example: 

C contains D so 4 is played 

before

5.)

When you press MENU and the list of album 
names appears (page 47), the album names 
are arranged in the following order:
A t B t C t D t F t G. Albums 
that do not contain tracks (or files) (such as 
album

E) do not appear in the list.

z Hints
• If you add numbers (01, 02, 03, etc.) to the front 

of the track/file names when you store the tracks 
(or files) in a disc, the tracks and files will be 
played in that order.

• Since a disc with many trees takes longer to start 

playback, it is recommended that you create 
albums with no more than two trees.

• Depending on the software you use to create the 

DATA CD/DATA DVD, the playback order may 
differ from the above illustration.

• The playback order above may not be applicable 

if there are more than 200 albums and 300 tracks/
files in each album.

• The player can recognize up to 200 albums (the 

player will count just albums, including albums 
that do not contain MP3 audio tracks and JPEG 
image files). The player will not play any albums 
beyond the 200th album.

• Proceeding to the next or another album may take 

some time.

You can play MP3 audio tracks and JPEG 
image files on DATA CDs or DATA DVDs.

z Hint
You can view the disc information while playing 
MP3 audio tracks (page 35).

• DATA CDs recorded in KODAK Picture CD 

format automatically start playing when inserted.

• If no MP3 audio track or JPEG image file is 

recorded on the DATA CD/DATA DVD, “No 
audio data” or “No image data” appears on the 
screen.
