Re: MD: Elektor SCMS Stripper. German help needed...
=== = NB: Over 50% of this message is QUOTED, please = = be more selective when quoting text = === Hi My self built Elektor SCMS stripper also pass the trackmarks through and strips the SCMS correctly. If it strips the trackmarks then it does not function correctly... Hmm... Seems I need to do a little tweaking. Any hints of where to begin? (eg which pot to adjust) I'm guessing from what I remember that its pot 1 that needs the tinkering? -- James Budworth [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ# Tsuki_yomi - 684547 - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: Elektor SCMS Stripper. German help needed...
I've built one, it worked first time. Same here. You can adjust the potentiometers just by playing music though it and listening to the results - adjust them until music appears! You may then need to make slight correction to make sure track marks also make it through the SCMS sripper. I have never gotten it to pass the track marks however. I always thought it was just because of the design of the circuit itself. Is there a way to get it to pass the track marks? I set mine up by using the voltage levels as guides to the adjustments. -- James Budworth [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ# Tsuki_yomi - 684547 - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: headphones and airplanes
Unless someone knows of a specific model, you are going to have to do some research. Like speakers, headphones all have difference efficiency . Some require large amounts of power while others will produce high volume from a small amount of power. I wish I cold be more helpful. I think that you many also be able to acquire an external headphone amp. But I'm not sure how portable they are. Probably the best person to check with about that would be Len Moskowitz at Core Sound. A good place to look for all this sort of thing is.. http://headwize.com/ They have projects for making your own headphone amps as well as give you a better idea as to what headphones might be better... -- James Budworth [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ# Tsuki_yomi - 684547 The Complete Clow http://www.techserv.curtin.edu.au/tsuki_yomi/clow/clow.htm The Ranmascan Project (Australian Mirror) http://www.techserv.curtin.edu.au/ranmascan/ - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: Sharp Titling Aids

It can be run from a PC as well from the parallel port. The only thing is that you have to build the cable yourself. All the instructions can be found at http://my.nichols.de/meierth/MD70X.HTML This works very well for what it can do. The Sharp is quite limited on the functions you can perform from the remote. I had problems with different parallel ports. Some it worked on some it didn't a little odd that one... Or alternatively, if you have access to a Sony deck, buy WinRemote from Martin Danek - it is the most useful thing I have ever bought for my hi-fi, and very versatile also. If you have Sony seperates, you cannot afford to be without this device! The other option is Easytext, which I use. http://www.virtualremote.co.uk/ You can also have a remote control with the same hardware. My option is Easytext over Winremote. Winremote may have more options but Easytext is FREE, and does everything I need. The hardware costs about $20 to make and quite a few other programs can use it (Like MosterClicker http://www.accessv.com/~dpang ) -- James Budworth [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ# Tsuki_yomi - 684547 The Complete Clow http://www.techserv.curtin.edu.au/tsuki_yomi/clow/clow.htm The Ranmascan Project (Australian Mirror) http://www.techserv.curtin.edu.au/ranmascan/ - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: External MD Power Supply for 722
My own personal 701 experience... The original internal battery recently began to fail. However I had 12x 4V lithium cells laying around doing nothing (from an old laptop battery where the circuitry died not the batteries) Now the internal battery is 3.6V where as these were 4V... Hmm, voltage a bit off, but I decided to give it a try. I made up a "Dummy" battery where the terminals lead off to the outside. Only mod I had to make was to the battery cover to enable the wire to get out. I hooked up the battery... and no smoke (boy was I relieved!) Power on and everything works OK! After a quick test I made the connection semi permanent and left it playing. 10 Hours later its still going and on the last battery bar. Interestings thing to note - With the fully charged Lithium connected it thought it was connected to the power adapter! When the Lithium was then recharged by the MD it was charged back up to the Preset point suitable for the 3.6V original. After that (not REALLY fully charged Lithium) I've been getting about 6-8 hours playtime. At some point I'll make up a charger to FULLY charge the lithium and then run from that. -- James Budworth [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ# Tsuki_yomi - 684547 The Complete Clow http://www.techserv.curtin.edu.au/tsuki_yomi/clow/clow.htm The Ranmascan Project (Australian Mirror) http://www.techserv.curtin.edu.au/ranmascan/ - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: MS Media Player 7 is so cool!

Hi guys, Its been around for months but the first official release version of MS Media Player 7 is on the Microsoft Windoze update site, and though I shudder as I type the following words about an MS product-- this is just too cool to believe. I've just touched the surface of its features but even its audio playback screen has a fancy sound-to-light converter with loads of types to choose from. I believe it can rip CDs to MP3s but havent checked for that yet. At any rate it is light years ahead of the previous version of Media Player (everytime I went to the MS update and saw the Media Player 7 beta listed, I was tempted but resisted). Normally I tend to slag off MS but this product at first sight seems great, wots more it's free!!! Is this MS trying to kill of Real and MusicMatch and other multimedia software producers? There must be an ulterior motive behind this seemingly wonderful piece of software. You guys are the best I know to ask, any thoughts on it? Personally I'm staying away from it. I have installed it to try it out, but it was removed almost immediately. I have a lot of video clips that play fine fullscreen under 6.4. I tried them in 7 and it was like I had a low end Pentium instead of the 550@645 that I run. WMP7 suffers BADLY from terrible refresh rate and laggy control response. It may have some really cool features but if its that slow I'm willing to do without them. The one good thing I will say is that it seems to uninstall cleanly ^_^ -- James Budworth [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ# Tsuki_yomi - 684547 The Complete Clow http://www.techserv.curtin.edu.au/tsuki_yomi/clow/clow.htm The Ranmascan Project (Australian Mirror) http://www.techserv.curtin.edu.au/ranmascan/ - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Why are computer floppy disks spelled disk?? Yet CDs, CD ROMs, and Mini Discs spelled DISC?? As far as computer disks are concerned "DISK" is an abbreviation of "DISKETTE". Where as MD and CD refer to DISC as a flat circular object. Beyond that *shrug* who knows? Possibly the thickness of the disc?

And you can switch off the annoying system tray icon as well :) Yay I've been looking for a plugin for just this...
