There is a version of Gracenote
ognition technology on the COMAND hard
drive. You will recognize this by the logo
which can be seen in the bottom right-hand
corner of certain audio displays.
Many audio CDs contain CD text. COMAND
uses the information contained therein to dis-
play the artist, album and track name.
If the audio CD does not contain any CD text
information, COMAND can use the Grace-
®
note Media Database to identify unknown
audio tracks when in audio CD mode. This is
only possible if the relevant information is
saved in the Gracenote
if the "Gracenote Media Database" function is
activated.
If this is the case, COMAND will display the
corresponding data such as artist, album and
track name in the relevant displays and lists.
