have u tried mp3Gain by ne chance??? (i think that's wot it's called)

iceedtea's version didn't seem to like my VAIO's MS drive and wouldn't let me view the files on it...the official one has fixed that problem (for me neways)...

oops forgot to mention that some of the buttons may not do what they were supposed to do as marked on the remote (as nexgod mentioned above)

basically just connect a stereo cable out from the LINE OUT of ur MAC to the LINE IN of your MD then hit play (on iTunes) and record (on ur MD) simultaneously to record...since that's a non-NetMD model it needs to be recorded with stereo cables in real-time...

nope sorry i hav'n encountered an error like this b4...have u tried converting the file to like another format such as wav by ne chance??

the 510 is a recorder (which basically plays back and has LINE/OPTIC inputs to record from as well as being able to transfer music thru USB) where as the 410 is a downloader (can only transfer music thru USB and play them back)...

did u also install the drivers for ur NetMD??? if not then that would probably the reason y ur unit isn't being recognised...

heyy there, um i'm not entirely sure on how new Sharp recoding units are like but i'm pretty sure that u can change the volume levels if u find that ur recordings are 2 soft...also recording in LP2/LP4 shouldn't compromise the playback volume of the recording....

it should work as all new sony remotes were built so that they had some sort of backward compatibility with older units...

the only way to transfer music from one PC 2 another is in real time using cables i'm afraid...

yep the light basically stays on when it's charging and will go off once it's finished charging...i know it seems odd that the unit doesn't display the word "CHARGING" on it but yes it does charge and the light will go out once the battery is full...

<Kosmos> : sorry i'm not sure how much it'll cost because my unit was still under warranty when i took it back... <minimi> : that era that i was refering to was the 1st gen models that utilised NetMD...i.e. N505, N707, N1 and S1...there were quite a few problems related to the motor failing due to a dodgy ribbon cable...but they've seem to have fixed it up in the next series of NetMD's to come out (current series such as NE410, N510, NF610, N710, N910, N10) so no i don't think ur NF610 is plagued by this problem...

well SonicStage (to me atleast) seems to be more stable and reliable than OpenMG is...there are probably a few newer features as this is the latest version to come out (and will be shipped with all new Hi-MD units coming out)...and yes it is 100% compatible with ur N707...it works with my N1 unit np...

recording through optic will yield a better result than if transfered through the PC via USB...since the NetMD software limits you to only LP2 recording quality even at SP (albeit a slightly higher bitrate than LP2)...

yup i c what u mean actually... :happy: but no i'm not on T-Boards..i visit T-Board every now and then to find if there's anything interesting to read...

try here

either try normalising the file or play around with the EQ settings in the software...

could it be that you have the EQ turned on??? if so then turn it off or use the "Flat" setting....if it still clips then it could be ur audio file...use a program to normalise the file so that it won't clip...

that's not always true...it depends if the dvd player and the cd/dvd played is actually protected...if so it won't let you copy...if not then it usually is fine...i've had no problems recording from my DVD player (with the exception of some CD/DVD's which are protected and won't allow me to copy digitally)

no such method atm...ur stuck with doing it via analogue cables and in realtime i'm afraid...otherwise look at the new Hi-MD units...

i think it's the battery that's screwed up...better get a replacement...the battery on my E900 decided to play up as well...got a new one and everything was good...

heh...i agree also though i'm somewhat of a collector myself so i can relate to the number of units that kurisu owns (or has owned...) Leland i think is also in the same boat... :happy:

if i can find it i'll give u a quote...but if i can't then ur best bet would be the site that tbdoah has just pointed out above...

heyy there...well for recording i suggest that u look into the Sharp units on offer...there are many in it's range depending on ur budget...but there is no such unit out atm that can transfer the data to and from a Mac computer through USB faster than real-time...they haven't seem to introduce mac support for their NetMD units as yet and hopefully they will soon...otherwise u could look into hard drive based mp3 players/recorders as well...

not sure if this is the right answer but it may seem that the ribbon to the recording head in ur unit may be broken...there is a post here made by our fellow member that explains what has happened...but if u don't want to rip apart the unit urself to check it then i suggest that u take it back to Sony and get them to fix it up 4 u...
