Playing a Bonus Group on a
DVD AUDIO disc
Some DVD AUDIO discs contain a special
group called “bonus group” whose contents
are not opened to the public. The bonus group
is assigned to the last group of a disc. To play

The RDV-1050 can play back MP3 files and
WMA files on a home recorded CD-R/RW disc
or commercially available CD. We refer to a
disc that contains MP3 and/or WMA files as
an “MP3/WMA disc” in this manual.
If a disc contains both of MP3/WMA files and
JPEG files, you can only play back files of the
type selected by the MP3&WMA/JPEG set-
ting in the PICTURE preference display.
About MP3/WMA Discs
On an MP3/WMA disc, each song is recorded
as a file (track). Files are sometimes grouped
into folders by artists, album, etc.
Each file is regarded as a track.
•A folder which has one or more files is re-
garded as a group.
•A folder which does not directly contain any
tracks is ignored.
Files which do not belong to any folder are
grouped into “group 1.”
The RDV-1050 recognizes up to 150 tracks
per group, and up to 99 groups per disc.
If there are files other than MP3/WMA files,
they also count in the 150-file total.
