Storing Information About CDs (Custom Files)

Storing Information About CDs (Custom Files)
What You Can Do With the
Custom Files
The player can store 2 types of information called
"Custom Files" for each disc. Once you have stored
Custom Files for a disc, the player automatically recalls
what you have stored whenever you insert the disc.
Note that Custom Files will be erased if you don't use
the player for about 1 month.
You can store this information:
When you use
Custom Index (page 22)
Delete Bank (page 24)
The Custom File indication lights up when you store
the corresponding information.
C.FILE
DELETE
INDEX
When you store a Custom File for a disc, the player
remembers how you played that disc last time even if
you removed the disc from the player (last mode
memory). When you insert the same disc again,
therefore, the player plays in the same play mode. The
player also remembers the duration of fade in/out time
if you've changed the time.
Note that when you press · to close the disc tray and
start playing, the player plays in the play mode
currently selected instead of the stored one.
Where are Custom Files stored?
Custom Files are stored not on the disc but in the
player's memory. This means you cannot use Custom
Files when you play the disc on other players.
How many discs can you file?
You can file up to 224 discs in the Custom File.
The player counts a disc as one even when you store
the Custom Index and Delete Bank at the same time.

Indexing a Disc (Custom Index)

You can index a disc at up to 8 points (for a disc with
32 tracks or less) or 5 point (for a disc with over 32
tracks) so that you can easily locate a desired point.
This might be useful when you play discs of
symphonies or concertos that divide one piece into
several tracks (see the example below).
