Symptom
The total
recorded time
and the
remaining time
on the disc may
not total the
maximum
recording time
(60, 74, or 80
minutes).
The edited tracks
may exhibit
sound dropout
during search
operations.
Cause
Normally, recording is done in minimum units
of approximately 2 seconds (in stereo), 4
seconds (in monaural or LP2 mode), or 8
seconds (in LP4 mode). When recording is
stopped, the last unit of recording always uses
this unit of 2 seconds, 4 seconds, or 8 seconds
even if the actual recording is shorter. Likewise,
when recording is restarted after the stop, the
recorder will automatically insert a blank space
amounting to 2 seconds, 4 seconds, or 8 seconds
before the next recording. (This is to prevent
accidental erasing of a previous track whenever
a new recording is started). Therefore, the actual
recording time will decrease whenever a
recording is stopped by a maximum of 6
seconds, 12 seconds, or 24 seconds.
The fragmentation of data may cause sound
dropout while searching because the tracks are
played in higher speed than normal playback.
