Storing CDs on the MusicCAST server
3 Use / / / to move the cursor to "Start" and
press SELECT.
The MusicCAST server begins storing songs on its hard disk
drive.
The following screen appears on the on-screen display during
recording:
To stop this process press SELECT.
Take care not to press SELECT in error, as this halts the storage
process.
The MusicCAST server first stores the songs in PCM format,
and then converts them into MP3 format, saving both copies on
the hard disk drive (refer to the glossary for an explanation of
PCM and MP3 formats). The conversion process takes a short
time. If you set the MusicCAST server to store MP3 files only
(see page 121 of the MCX-1000 owner's manual), it erases all
PCM files after this conversion is complete.
4 When storage is complete, the following screen
appears on the on-screen display:
Select one of the two option.
• To check the content you have just stored, select "Open
stored album page".
• To store another CD, select "Store another CD".
The disc tray opens automatically. Place a new CD in the
disc tray after removing the CD you have just stored, and
repeat the storage procedure.
• The MusicCAST server distributes MP3 files to MusicCAST
clients by default. Please wait for the conversion process to
finish before attempting to listen to songs on your
MusicCAST client.
• Do not turn off system power during the storage process.
Errors in storage may appear, along with problems with data
on the hard disk drive.
• Do not bump or vibrate the MusicCAST server during
storage, as it may damage the hard disk drive.
