This unit is not compatible with packet-write format. This unit does not use ID tags. If both MP3 and CD-DA data is recorded on the disc, only the data type used for the first session is played. Maximum number of displayable characters in the album and track name is 15. You cannot use 1-Disc Random, All-Disc Random, program and search function. Some MP3 may not be played due to the condition of the disc or recording. Recordings will not necessarily be played in the order you recorded them.

Files may not be recorded in numbered order if the prefixes have different numbers of digits. For example: 1????.mp3, 2????.mp3, 10????.mp3. However, some writing software may also cause recording to occur in a different order.
