CD-R Media Code Identifier

[Ultima]

What does this mean? That I can overburn it to 97minutes? that seems sort of excessive, lol, but why does "ATIP" say 97m 18s 06f while "nominal capacity" says 79m 59s 74f?

ATIP: 97m 18s 06f
Disc Manufacturer: Unknown Disc Identification Code
Reflective layer: Dye (Short strategy; e.g. Phthalocyanine)
Media type: CD-Recordable
Recording Speeds: min. unknown - max. unknown
nominal Capacity: 702.83MB (79m 59s 74f / LBA: 359849)

The 'ATIP' data in this case does not represent time. It is a code which contains the manufacturer of the disc, and the disc's chemistry and recommended recording laser write strategy. For some reason, some programs display it as a time.

The nominal capacity, is the maximum recordable size of the disc - note that the maximum possible value is 79 mins 59 sec and 74 frames. The disc can be longer, and some recorders can write past 80 minutes, it's just that 79:59:74 is the maximum number that can be represented in the code used on the disc.
