Cause/Remedy
This is due to a calculation discrepancy between the recorder and the
computer.
• The minimum recordable time on a disc is normally 2 seconds in
stereo, 4 seconds in LP2 stereo mode, and 8 seconds in LP4 stereo
mode. When you transfer a track from your computer, the recorder
needs a 2-second (or 4- or 8-second) space for a track even if the track
is under 2 seconds (or 4 or 8 seconds) in length. Also, the recorder
inserts a 2-second (or 4 -or 8-second) space in between tracks during
transfer operation. For this reason, the recorder needs an additional 6
seconds (or 12 or 24 seconds) for each track. This reduces the
maximum recording time for each track by 6 seconds (or 12 or 24
seconds) during transfer operation (in MD mode only).
• The difference is due to the use of the binary system to indicate the disc
size on the computer and the decimal system to express the disc size on
the disc and other recording media. For details on the disc size, see
page 63.
• You cannot operate the recorder while the recorder is connected to the
computer.
