SmartRID And SmartSTAMP Codes
The SmartRID and SmartSTAMP codes are unique electronic
fingerprints that can be optionally written into audio and data discs
copied with the CD-5916. These fingerprints allow discs to be traced
back to the specific CD-5916 unit, and even the recorder that copied
them. SmartRID and SmartSTAMP are useful ways of dealing with
unauthorized copying, authenticating discs, and helping to diagnose
copying problems.
SmartSTAMP codes are written outside the specified data area of a data
CD-ROM, so copies will be exactly the same as the original. However,
SmartRID codes written into audio discs may be mistakenly detected by
industrial mastering systems as errors, and therefore should not be used
when creating master discs for mass replication purposes.
