Gracenote Media Database Introduction
This function is only available in audio CD
mode. There is a version of
Gracenote® music recognition technology
on the COMAND hard drive. You will
recognize this by the logo which can be seen
in the bottom right-hand corner of certain
audio displays.
Many audio CDs contain CD text. COMAND
uses the information contained therein to
display the artist, album and track name.
If the audio CD does not contain any CD text
information, COMAND can use the
Gracenote ®
Media Database to identify
unknown audio tracks when in audio CD
mode. This is only possible if the relevant
information is saved in the Gracenote Media
Database and if the "Gracenote Media
Database" function is activated.
If this is the case, COMAND will display the
corresponding data such as artist, album and
track name in the relevant displays and lists.
