RE: MD: Hi-Space MiniDiscs
I sell the 80mn Hi-Space $95.00 US for 50 minidisc ($1.90 US each) at http://www.kheopsminidisc.com (this special is available until saturday). I use personally Sony, TDK and Hi-Space minidisc and love them all... Pierre. Are the Hi-Space 80min discs any good, because I can get 4 for 24.99 Canadian at Virgin, which is better than 49.99 for 5 Sony Prism 80s. -- NP: Brett Tyre [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.geocities.com/brett_tyre London Drugs, Comp.

RE:MD: MZR90 in Service Mode
Craciunescu, Go to site Minidisc.org they have some info on servive mode for MZR30/50. From what I've read just removing the battery from the unit should return the unit to normal operation. However the MDR-90 does have an internal battery for the real time clock so it may not be that simple. A service manual for your unit would explain how to get it out of service mode but I haven't seen one on the web. Good Luck Simon. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
MD: HiSpace discs and C13 error
I have not had the best experience with HiSpace discs so I choose not to use them. The main problems I've found are that some discs recorded on other players, are recognised (TOC etc.) by my old Sony MZ-R30 portable but not always by my MDS-JB920. For some reason the deck gives a "C13" disk error message when you try to insert it and it just ejects. I have to put it in a couple of times before it finally reads the disc and lets you play. I am not sure why the portable has no trouble with it - only the deck gives problems. Sometimes I can record on HiSpace discs with my portable/deck but then later, the deck gives the same error. Its not very reassuring. Any comments? - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
MD: Hardware based encoders for ATRAC and MP3
=== = NB: Over 50% of this message is QUOTED, please = = be more selective when quoting text = === Aiwa has a portable solid-state MP3 recorder that will record in MP3 format at 44.1khz stereo (see http://www.aiwa.co.jp/english/exhibi/new_p2000/mm-fx500.html). It Interesting. However, it doesn't offer scalable bitrates, and somehow copy protects all mp3's created with it. What use then is the analog recording feature? Recording through the mic is limited to 16kHz 16kbps which is okay for personal lecture recording and the like, but not much else. "David Smith" [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Minidisc recorders efficiently compress high quality audio using a hardware ATRAC encoder, so they consume relatively little power. Is there any similar chip based encoder for MP3? As far as I know, those mp3 players that offer 'voice recording' don't encode their recordings in mp3 format. MP3 compression offers one major advantage over ATRAC - scalable bitrates and sampling rates, but it seems to be a fairly CPU intensive process. Aiwa has a portable solid-state MP3 recorder that will record in MP3 format at 44.1khz stereo (see http://www.aiwa.co.jp/english/exhibi/new_p2000/mm-fx500.html). It offers 10 hour playback and 3.5 hour recording times. This seems roughly on par with MD playback/recording ratios. My understanding is that MP3 compression is on the same order of complexity as ATRAC. Rick - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
