Data management is achieved with the aid of a music track database.
The music track database information is stored on the hard disk of the CIC for the pur-
pose of managing the music file’s metadata. A 4 GB partition is allocated to the music
search function.
The CIC is equipped with special software provided by Gracenote
®
for the purpose of
identifying the complete albums of ripped Digital Audio CDs. It provides additional infor-
mation about the music track on the respective Digital Audio CD converted to WMA files.
This music track database (Gracenote
®
) uses TOC (Table of Contents) as the identifica-
tion pattern. This means, complete albums on Digital Audio CDs are identified based on
the number of tracks and the track length.
The corresponding data (track, artist, etc.) is then accordingly assigned to the music files
in the music search database.
On conclusion of the conversion procedure to WMA files, the new metadata is automati-
cally added to the directory structure in the music search. It is not possible to rename or
edit this metadata after it is in the hard disk.
Note: Albums with newly released metadata at the time of vehicle delivery
will no longer be identified. The music track database would require a
permanent link with the server in order to keep this data up to date and
this is not possible.
