Sony MZ-M10 CD Player User Manual

The playing time of
a transferred track is
different from the
time that appears on
your computer
monitor.
This is due to a calculation discrepancy between the recorder and the
computer.
You cannot transfer
tracks that will fill
up the remaining
recording time on
the disc.
The minimum recordable time on a disc is normally 2 seconds in SP
mode, 4 seconds in LP2 mode, and 8 seconds in LP4 mode. When you
transfer a track from your Windows computer, the recorder needs a 2-
second (or 4- or 8-second) space for a track even if the track is under 2
seconds (or 4 or 8 seconds) in length. Also, the recorder inserts a 2-
second (or 4 -or 8-second) space in between tracks during transfer
operation. For this reason, the recorder needs an additional 6 seconds
(or 12 or 24 seconds) for each track. This reduces the maximum
recording time for each track by 6 seconds (or 12 or 24 seconds) during
transfer operation (in MD mode only).
The disc size
displayed on the
computer is not the
same as the disc size
printed on the disc.
The difference is due to the use of the binary system to indicate the disc
size on the computer and the decimal system to express the disc size on
the disc and other recording media. For details on the disc size, see
page 64.
You cannot operate
the recorder.
You cannot operate the recorder while the recorder is connected to the
computer.
The lid does not
open.
It happens if you disconnect the supplied USB cable in the middle of a
data transfer, recording, or editing operation on the computer, but while
the rechargeable battery is missing from the recorder or is drained.
, Reconnect the USB cable or insert a fully charged rechargeable
battery into the recorder, and then press x.
