About the Gracenote
®
Database
The Gracenote
®
Database is a database used to search and
retrieve CD title information.
When a CD is inserted or copying from a CD begins, the unit will
automatically search for and obtain information about the inserted
CD.
The Gracenote
®
Database comes pre-installed on this unit, so titles
and artist information can be obtained. Please note however that the
newest CD titles, etc. may not be registered yet to the internal
database. This unit has an internal database containing information
for approximately 350,000 album titles.
You can update the internal database (➡ 65).
If there are CDs with very similar title information, then the incorrect
title information may be obtained. If no title suggestions are found,
then track name, album name and artist name will be blank.
In these cases, enter the CD title information manually, after copying
to the HDD has completed.
