4. CD Database and Untitled Albums

The majority of CDs do not contain text data on the artist name, album name and track names. The Digital Bubbler contains a text database of 2,500,000 albums. This database allows the system to include album information even when the jukebox is not connected to the internet.

This database is installed in the jukebox at the date of manufacture; therefore any albums released after the latest database update will not be recognized by the local database.

If you are ripping an album to the jukebox, and the name of the album does not appear in the list, choose Rip As Untitled either enter a title for the album through Edit Untitled Albums to the updated Internet Database (via telephone line or ethernet connection) to automatically enter the album information for all untitled albums you have copied to your jukebox.

Alternately, you can leave The Digital Bubbler connected to the internet through your high speed connection and the jukebox will always use the current, updated Internet Database.
