MD: Need help from anyone with a Rio MP3 player!

2000-04-20 Thread Gadagada
Hello, I've sent this letter out before, but have gotten no reply. So, I figured I'd try again. I bought a Rio mp3 player (the first version) and used it to format a smartmedia card that I already had, thinking that I could reformat it for use in my digital camera if I wanted to use it

Hi Remember me? I'm the guy who ruined a $99 smart media card by formatting it for use with Diamond's Rio. I got a repsonse from the diamond tech guys. The only way to fix it is by downloading a software patch for the rio drivers and then reformatting in the Rio. The only problem? I

MD: DIN Unlock problem when recording MP3's

2000-02-24 Thread Gadagada
Hello all! I recently bought a Guillemot Fortissimo soundcard because it had a op dig output. When I try to record an MP3 onto minidisc, the signal keeps dropping out, resulting in a DIN UNLOCK message on my sharp 722, and the creation of a new track in the middle of a song. However, when I

That's the mp3 player, not the country singer. I don't know what came over me, but I went out and bought a Rio player at Comp USA today. Well, I do know what came over me, and if you must know, I subconsciously thought that a new gadget would soothe the problems in my love life. Anywho, I

Well, I solved my strange volume problem on my Sharp 702. As you may remember, my 702 played music extremely quietly, while the "beep" sound remained normal. Strange, right? I figured it was an EEPROM related problem, but after Hannes Rohde so kindly sent me the EEPROM defaults and I

Hello All! I really hope someone out there can help me with my strange problem. I've had a sharp 702 for over a year now and have had no problems, not even that nefarious UTOC error. So, I put in a minidisc today and push play and what happens? The display says it is playing, scrolling the

My 702 is having a very strange volume problem. The volume only has two levels, 0 (no sound) and 1-30 (every setting between 1 and 30 is the same level, which is very very very quiet, probably equal to the 1 setting on nomal 702's). But, to make matters even more strange, the "beep" sound
