Using the Jukebox

Using the Jukebox
The Jukebox feature allows you to use the recorder’s HDD to store and playback music from up to 999 of your CDs. You can also transfer WMA/MP3 files stored on CD
Copying music to the HDD
The first step is to copy some music to the HDD. CD audio, WMA and MP3 files are copied at high speed. All
tracks are copied from each CD/DVD as an album.1
WMA/MP3 album and track names are copied along with the audio. CD album and track names are not copied, but you can add these later (see Editing Jukebox albums on page 124).
Usually, the tracks are copied to the HDD in the order they appear on the CD/DVD.
Note that once copied to the HDD, audio tracks cannot be copied to a recordable DVD disc.
