■USB memory functions

●Depending on the USB memory device that is connected to the system, the device itself may not be operable and certain functions may not be available. If the device is inoperable or a function is unavailable due to a malfunction (as opposed to a system specification), disconnecting the device and reconnecting it may resolve the problem.

●If the USB memory device still does not begin operation after being dis-

connected and reconnected, format the memory.

■Error messages for USB memory

Message

Cause/Correction procedures

“Connection error. Please consult your Owner’s Manual for instructions on how to connect the USB device.” “There are no file avail- able for playback. Please add compatible file to your USB device.”

■USB memory

●Compatible devices

This indicates a problem with the USB memory device or its connection.

This indicates that no MP3/WMA/AAC files are included on the USB memory device.

USB memory device that can be used for MP3, WMA and AAC playback.

●Compatible device formats

The following device format can be used: • USB communication format: USB2.0 FS (12 Mbps), USB2.0 HS (480

Mbps)

• File system format: FAT16/32 (Windows) • Correspondence class: Mass storage class

MP3, WMA and AAC files written to a device with any format other than those listed above may not play correctly, and their file names and folder names may not be displayed correctly.

277

3-2. Using the multimedia system

Items related to standards and limitations are as follows: • Maximum directory hierarchy: 8 levels • Maximum number of folders in a device: 3000 (including the root) • Maximum number of files in a device: 9999
• Maximum number of files per folder: 255

●MP3, WMA and AAC files MP3 (MPEG Audio LAYER 3) is a standard audio compression format. Files can be compressed to approximately 1/10 of their original size using MP3 compression. WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a Microsoft audio compression format. This format compresses audio data to a size smaller than that of the MP3 format. AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding and refers to an audio compression technology standard used with MPEG2 and MPEG4. MP3, WMA and AAC file and media/formats compatibility are limited. ●MP3 file compatibility

• Compatible standards

MP3 (MPEG1 AUDIO LAYER3, MPEG2 AUDIO LAYER3)

• Compatible sampling frequencies

MPEG1 AUDIO LAYER3: 32, 44.1, 48 (kHz) MPEG2 AUDIO LAYER3: 16, 22.05, 24 (kHz)

• Compatible bit rates (compatible with VBR)

MPEG1 AUDIO LAYER3: 32-320 (kbps) MPEG2 AUDIO LAYER3: 8-160 (kbps)

• Compatible channel modes: stereo, joint stereo, dual channel and

monaural

●WMA file compatibility

• Compatible standards

WMA Ver. 7, 8, 9

• Compatible sampling frequencies HIGH PROFILE 32, 44.1, 48 (kHz)

• Compatible bit rates

●AAC file compatibility

• Compatible standards

MPEG4/AAC-LC

• Compatible sampling frequencies

11.025/12/16/22.05/24/32/44.1/48 (kHz)

• Compatible bit rates

16-320 (kbps)

• Compatible channel modes: 1 ch and 2 ch

●File names

The only files that can be recognized as MP3/WMA/AAC and played are those with the extension .mp3 or .wma.

●ID3, WMA and AAC tags

ID3 tags can be added to MP3 files, making it possible to record the track title, artist name, etc. The system is compatible with ID3 Ver. 1.0, 1.1, and Ver. 2.2, 2.3 ID3 tags. (The number of characters is based on ID3 Ver. 1.0 and 1.1.) WMA tags can be added to WMA files, making it possible to record the track title and artist name in the same way as with ID3 tags. AAC tags can be added to AAC files, making it possible to record the track title and artist name in the same way as with ID3 tags.

●MP3, WMA and AAC playback

• When a device containing MP3, WMA and AAC files is connected, all files in the USB memory device are checked. Once the file check is fin- ished, the first MP3, WMA and AAC file is played. To make the file check finish more quickly, we recommend that you do not include any files other than MP3, WMA and AAC files or create any unnecessary folders.

• When a USB memory device is connected and the audio source is changed to USB memory mode, the USB memory device will start playing the first file in the first folder. If the same device is removed and reconnected (and the contents have not been changed), the USB memory device will resume play from the same point in which it was last used. ●Extensions

If the file extensions .mp3, .wma and .m4a are used for files other than MP3, WMA and AAC files, they will be skipped (not played).

279

3-2. Using the multimedia system

●Playback

• To play MP3 files with steady sound quality, we recommend a fixed bit

rate of at least 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.

• There is a wide variety of freeware and other encoding software for MP3, WMA and AAC files on the market, and depending on the status of the encoding and the file format, poor sound quality or noise at the start of playback may result. In some cases, playback may not be pos- sible at all.

• Microsoft, Windows, and Windows Media are the registered trade-

marks of Microsoft Corporation in the U.S.A. and other countries.

CAUTION

■While driving

Do not connect a USB memory device or operate the device controls.
