MD-MT877/MD-MT877C
The unit may have the following symptoms while recording or editing. The unit is not out of order.
MiniDisc System Limitations
SYMPTOM
“DISC FULL” or “TOC FULL” appears
even though the MiniDisc still has re-
cording time left.
The remaining recording time does not
increase even though you erased tracks.
The total of the recorded time and the
remaining time does not match the maxi-
mum recordable time.
Combine function does not work.
Sound skips in fast reverse/forward.
A track number is created in the middle
of a track.
LIMITATIONS
More than 255 tracks (maximum) cannot be recorded regardless of the re-
cording time.
If the MiniDisc is recorded or edited repeatedly or if it has scratches (record-
ing skips scratched parts), you may not be able to record the maximum
tracks above.
The unit does not count non-recorded portions that last 12 or fewer seconds
to display the remaining recording time. The time may not increase even if
you erase short tracks.
One cluster (approximately 2 seconds) is the minimum unit for recording.
For example, a 3-second track uses 2 clusters (approximately 4 seconds).
Therefore, the actual recordable time may be shorter than the displayed
time.
A MiniDisc on which recording and editing are repeated may not allow the
combine function.
One track is divided and recorded in separate places on a repeatedly re-
corded or edited MiniDisc.
Sound may skip.
A track number may be created if there are scratches or dust on the MiniDisc.
