Thanks to both Gary and to Dane for answering my question. I apparently
did not verbalize correctly. What I am trying to find out is what
digital format I need to use for the inputs. In other words, instead of
connecting the input device to the mini disc via analog connection, I
want to use the digital input mode so that the beginning and end of
track markers will be put in automatically. When transferring pop stuff
to mini disc, the markers work reasonably well. But when attempting to
transfer classical music, because of the quiet passages, sometimes extra
start markers are inserted.
Again, thanks for responding.

Subject: Digital audio question
Though the system is obsolete, I still enjoy using my mini disc
players. Until now, I have always made analog copies of material I
wanted on mini disc. But I would like to know specifically which
digital audio format is used when making a digital copy on to mini
disc. I am aware of the limitations caused by the mini disc's digital
serial copy management system.
Thanks for feedback.
