Database
The Gracenote
®
Database is a database used to search and
retrieve music CD title information.
When a music CD is inserted, the unit will automatically search for
and obtain information about the inserted music CD.
The Gracenote
®
Database comes pre-installed on this unit, so titles
and artist information can be obtained. This unit has an internal
database containing information for approximately 350,000 album
titles.
If the title of the newly released music CD is not in the built-in
database, it is possible to acquire the title automatically by
connecting to the network via the Internet. (➡ 98)
If there are music CDs with very similar title information, then the
incorrect title information may be obtained. If no title suggestions
are found, it is displayed as “Unknown Artist”, “Unknown Album”.
In these cases, enter the music CD title information manually, after
recording to the HDD has completed.
