Sony PCM-D1 Operating Instructions Manual page 43

Symptom
A character in a folder or
track name is displayed
in unreadable
characters.
"ACCESSING MEMORY"
display does not
disappear.
You cannot record
tracks up to the
maximum recording time
on page 49.
The "Memory Stick PRO
(High Speed)" is not
recognized.
".WAV" files cannot be
played back on the
recorder.
The remaining memory
volume does not reach
100%.
Cause/Solution
• The recorder cannot support or display some special characters and
symbols that are entered on a computer using Windows Explorer or Mac
Desktop.
• If the recorder is required to process an excessive amount of data, the
message may be displayed for an extended period of time. This is not a
malfunction of the recorder. Wait until the message disappears.
There are other formatted data (for example, images) in the memory.
•
• "Memory Stick PRO (High Speed)" requires a minimum amount of memory,
even when recording very short tracks. As a result, the actual total
recording time of "Memory Stick PRO (High Speed)" may be shorter than
the maximum recording time of the recorder.
• The maximum recording time indicated on page 49 is estimated. It varies
depending on the number of tracks.
Due to these limitations of the recording system, the sum of the total
•
recorded time in the counter (elapsed time) and the remaining time
becomes shorter than the maximum recording time of the recorder.
• Even when "MEMORY FULL" is displayed and the recorder stops
recording, the recorder has an extra memory space for editing. This is not a
malfunction of the recorder.
• If recording data volume of one track requires over 2 GB, the consecutive
recording starts as a new track due to the specification of the recorder.
Since the "Memory Stick PRO (High Speed)" contains image data or other
•
files, the memory required for creating initial folders is insufficient. Use
Windows Explorer or other tools to delete unnecessary files or initialize the
"Memory Stick PRO (High Speed)" on the recorder.
• A file recorded in a frequency that the recorder does not support cannot be
played back.
• Data may be damaged because the power source was removed during
recording. Initialize the memory using the recorder.
