The disc name appears, followed by the total number of tracks (Tr) and total disc playing time.

A music calendar showing all the track numbers appears within a grid if the MD is a premastered disc, or without a grid if the MD is a recordable disc.

If the total track number exceeds 25, z appears to the right of number 25 in the music calendar.

To label a recordable disc and its tracks, see “Labeling Recordings” on page 24.
