6.3D FINALIZING
The last stage is the finalizing stage, where the CD drive "closes" the disc and writes the final Table Of
Contents to the disc. This process takes about 30 seconds to complete. After this finalization process,
the disc will no longer be able to accept new data; it becomes a "read-only" disc.
Once the disc has successfully been finalized, the tray will eject and the display will indicate
"successful", as shown in Figure 6.3.1.

6.4 CD24 DISC SPECIFICS
One of the advantages to creating a CD24 disc is that the Track names are preserved when the disc is
recorded, and displayed when a disc is inserted and played. However, due to the limitations of the
ISO-9660 disc format, Track names on a CD24 are always converted to upper-case at recording time.
This will not affect the names assigned to Tracks in the playlist.
If a playlist contains two or more Tracks that, after being converted to upper-case, end up having the
same name, the MasterLink will automatically change the names of the files being recorded to the CD.
The last two characters of the Track name will be replaced by 01, 02, 03 etc., depending on the order of
the Track in the playlist.
For example, if the second, third, and seventh Tracks in a playlist are all named "Stairway", they will
end up on the CD24 as "STAIRWAY", "STAIRW01", and "STAIRW02".
