5 Press MENU/NO on the remote.
Notes
• The recorded “LP:” is a stamp which appears to
indicate that the track cannot be played back when
you try to play the track on system that does not
support MDLP mode. It does not appear for systems
that support MDLP mode.
• When set to “On”, “LP:” is recorded as the track
name, so the number of characters that can be input
to an MD is reduced. In addition, when you copy a
track name with “LP:” added, “LP:” is
automatically added to the copied track name. If
you divide an “LP:” track using the Divide function,
“LP:” is also added to the latter track.
