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. (

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.
