MiniDisc System Limitations

References

– 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.
