Tips for making WMA/MP3 and JPEG discs (For CD-R/CD-RW)

This unit is compatible with multi-session but if there are a lot of sessions it takes more
time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a minimum to avoid this.

eighth one onwards is displayed on the same vertical line in the menu screen.
There may be differences in the display order on the menu screen and computer screen.

groups on this unit.)
At the time of recording, prefix folder and file names. This

and should be done in the order you want to play them (this
may not work at times).
