While playing
You cannot check out
tracks that will fill up
the remaining
recording time on the
disc.
The minimum recordable time on a disc is normally 2 seconds
in stereo, 4 seconds in LP2 stereo mode, and 8 seconds in LP4
stereo mode. When you check out a track from your 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 check out so as not to overwrite
the previous track by mistake. 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 check out.
“TR FULL” appears
even before the disc
has reached the
maximum track
number or recording
time.
This is due to the MiniDisc system limitation. Repeated
recording and erasing may cause fragmentation and scattering
of data. Although those scattered data can be read, each
fragment is counted as a track. In this case, the number of
tracks may reach 254 and further recording is not possible.
, To continue recording, erase unnecessary tracks.
