[. . . ] SYMPTOM "DISC FULL" or "TOC FULL" appears even though the MiniDisc still has recording time left. The remaining recording time does not increase even though you erased tracks. The total of the recorded time and the remaining time does not match the maximum recordable time. LIMITATIONS More than 255 tracks (maximum) cannot be recorded regardless of the recording time. If the MiniDisc is recorded or edited repeatedly or if it has scratches (recording skips scratched parts), you may not be able to record the maximum tracks above. The unit does not count non-recorded portions that last 12 or fewer seconds to display the remaining recording time. One cluster (approximately 2 seconds) is the minimum unit for recording. For example, a 3-second track uses 2 clusters (approximately 4 seconds). Therefore, the actual recordable time may be shorter than the displayed time. (The number of seconds indicates that in the stereo recording mode (SP). It varies depending on the recording mode. ) Combine function does not work. A MiniDisc on which recording and editing are repeated may not allow the combine function. If one track is divided and recorded in separate places on a repeatedly recorded or edited MiniDisc, sound may skip. A track number may be created if there are scratches or dust on the MiniDisc. Troubleshooting Many potential "problems" can be resolved by the owner without calling a service technician. [. . . ] Level meter indicator q When recording stops, "TOC" (Table Of Contents) appears.

This unit can adjust the digital recording level just the same as the analogue recording. TOC display Warning: If the power is removed (Battery/AC adaptor) whilst "TOC" is displayed, the MiniDisc unit lid will remain locked until the battery/main power is restored and the unit is turned on.
