With most of music Discs, a track is assigned to a piece of music. However, with a VCD, the sections of the contents do not always correspond to the assigned tracks.
As (special) playback functions such as skipping and programming of ordinary Discs are based on track number data, such playback functions are sometimes impossible with some VCDs.

RDS (Radio Data System)
RDS is a digital information system that lets you receive signals besides those of regular radio programmes, such as network information being transmitted from radio stations. When listening to an RDS station (ie, a station with RDS capability), the programme service name of the station is displayed along with the frequency, advising you quickly which station is being received.
RDS (Radio Data System) stations also transmit frequency data for the same station. When you are making long trips, this function automatically switches to the particular frequency with the best reception for the particular network of stations that you want to listen to. The data is automatically stored, allowing you to switch quickly to another RDS stations, broadcasting the same programme, that has better reception. These include stations stored in the station preset memory that you often listen to.
Enhanced Other Network
Stations that offer <Enhanced Other Network> also transmit information about other RDS stations that have traffic information. When you are tuned to a station that is not transmitting traffic information, but another RDS station starts transmitting a traffic bulletin, the tuner automatically switches to the other station for the duration of the bulletin.
Alarm
When an emergency transmission (announcing disasters, etc.) is sent, all current functions are interrupted to allow the warning to be received.
