FreeDB database on the internet. A USB keyboard or the supplied remote control can be used to
edit the tag information of the CD (which you may find incorrect or incomplete) that will
eventually be stored on the X30 Music DB.
6-2. What is FreeDB ?
FreeDB is a database used to look up CD information using the network (internet). This is done by
the X30 (using a FreeDB aware application) that calculates a (nearly) unique disc ID for a CD
inserted into your optical drive. As a result, the X30 displays the artist, album, track list and some
additional information. Since all information is submitted by FreeDB users, there are likely to be
several different sets of information for the same CD or no information for a certain CD.
7. CD Loading(Ripping)
All music that you load (rip) onto the X30 will be stored in hidden folder (the name of the folder
is .DB), that cannot be seen.
TIP It is recommended that you connect to the internet to make use of the FreeDB when
loading (ripping) your CDs.
7-1. When the X30 is connected to network (internet)
Make sure to connect X30 to network (internet) before inserting CD into X30.
For CD loading(ripping), press the MENU button.
Then the below popup screen is displayed showing “Ripping
All”.
Insert CD into X30.
Select CD Play/Rip icon and press OK button.
Wait for a moment until X30 checks FreeDB CD database and
retrieves the CD tag information.
TIP If the X30 is connected to the internet, but displays
the track lists instead of the actual music titles, eject the CD & re-
insert it into the optical drive again.
