CONCERNING CD-TEXT
A new type of music CD produced by recording the album
name, track names and other text information as well as music
on a conventional CD is called CD-TEXT.
The text information is recorded on parts which were not used
by conventional music CDs. For this reason, these CDs can be
still played back on existing CD players as in the past whereas
if a CD-TEXT compatible player such as this unit is used
instead, their text information can be viewed as well.
Using the accessory remote control unit, this unit enables the
album names and track names to be shown on the display
window. Depending on the disc, however, not all the
information may have been recorded.
With this unit, up to 13 characters of this information can be
displayed at one time. If the disc has more text information,
the characters are scrolled (see *) from right to left facing the
display window.
* Scrolling means moving through the text which is being
displayed.
This unit supports only alphanumerics and symbols: Chinese
characters ('kanji'), hiragana and katakana are not displayed.
(Nothing appears on the display when the text information
consists solely of Chinese characters, hiragana and
katakana.)
By pressing the CD TEXT button on the remote control unit,
the following items of TEXT information on a CD-TEXT disc
can be displayed in sequence.
– During play:
Each time the button is pressed, what is displayed is
switched between the name of the track being played and the
time.
– In the stop mode:
Each time the button is pressed, what is displayed is
switched between the album's title and the time.
CONCERNING CD-RW DISC
PLAY
In addition to conventional music CDs and CD-R (Recordable)
discs, this unit can also play CD-RW (ReWritable) discs.
The TOC (see *) must have been recorded correctly for CD-R
or CD-RW playback. Writing the TOC information using a
CD recorder is known as finalizing. Bear in mind that if the
finalizing work has not been completed correctly for a disc,
the disc will not be recognized correctly as a music CD by a
regular CD player and will not be played. For further details,
refer to the Instruction Manual of the CD recorder.
* TOC stands for table of contents which consists of the total
number of tracks on a disc, the total play time and other
data.
Playable discs include only those discs recorded in the CD-
DA format for music applications. Do not attempt to play CD-
ROMs for personal computers and other discs on which data
has been recorded.
Since some of the player's settings are changed when a CD-
RW disc is played, it may take a little longer to read the TOC
than a music CD or CD-R disc.
"CD-RW" appears on the display when a CD-RW disc is
recognized.
In some cases, due to compatibility issues, it may not be
possible to play a CD-R(W) disc that has been finalized.
(This problem frequently occurs when material that was
recorded at 2x is played back and recorded at 2x yet again.)
