over

[eljr]

I put a cd in yesterday and a small red light lighted when it loaded. It said "over". I went to the owners manual to find out what this meant. It said the CD had over 16 tracks. What is the importance of that?

I can't answer your question at the moment, but I have a couple for you.

1. Did the CD still play?
2. Which player do you have?

we're just proud of you for not flipping the CD over and pressing play.

And instead went and read the manual! A very proud day, indeed.

To the OP - if the CD didn't play, or couldn't play any tracks above number 16, then my guess is that the chip or software used in the player only had 4-bits (i.e. 16) allocated to the track memory.
