Gracenote Media Database
i This function is only available in CD Audio
mode.
CD information including album title, artist
name and track name is obtained from the
®
Gracenote Media Database. A version of the
®
Gracenote Media Database is stored on the
COMAND's hard drive. Access to this
database is indicated by the Gracenote logo
being displayed in the lower right of some
audio displays.
Many audio CDs contain CD text. COMAND
uses the information contained in this text for
displaying the name of the artist, album and
track.
If the audio CD does not contain any CD text,
COMAND can recognize unknown audio
tracks in CD Audio mode with the aid of the
Gracenote Media Database. For this to
happen, the corresponding information must
be stored in the Gracenote Media Database
and the "Read CD Database" function must
be switched on.
If this is the case, COMAND provides the
corresponding data, such as name of artist,
album and track, in the corresponding
displays and lists.
If COMAND accesses the Gracenote Media
Database while reading an audio CD, the
following information is displayed:

Updating the Gracenote
As new music CD releases occur it is
necessary to update the Gracenote Media
Database. Optimum Gracenote
recognition function is only achieved when
the most up-to-date database is available in
your vehicle.
You can have the music recognition software
updated at an Authorized Mercedes-Benz
Y page 184).
