Assigning tracks or groups as a new group (Group Set)

With this function, you can assign existing tracks or groups to a new group, and also you can assign a track that currently belongs to no group to an existing group.

You can create a maximum of 255 groups on a Hi-MD disc or a standard disc in Hi- MD mode and 99 groups on a standard MD disc.

Registration of non-consecutive tracks is not possible (for example, track 3 and tracks 7 and 8 cannot be assigned to a new group).

It is not possible to make a new group if the first track or last track of the group has been selected from the middle of an existing group.

Track numbers appear according to their order on the disc, not their order within the group.

Notes

•When the total number of characters in the titles on a disc exceed the maximum that can be input:

—If the disc is being used in Hi-MD mode, you can make a group setting, but cannot add a group name in step 4.

—If the disc is being used in MD mode, you cannot make a group setting.

•The tracks or groups must be sequential. If the desired tracks or groups are not consecutive, you must move them to make them consecutive before you can assign them (“Moving recorded tracks or groups (Move)”, page 58).
