Please state your system specs according to the Software rules.

Cool. This is always here if you need it (link is in my sig as well): http://forums.minidisc.org/google.html

Please share.

It's something I can't change.

Some basic information about the music file is in question. What bit rate is the quality? You can find out by right clicking the file in Windows and going to Properties and wander into the advanced details. What is your system specs? What kind of headphones are you using?

If it isn't working for you, just use a different program to rip the music off of the CD into *.wav or mp3 and then convert if desired. Obviously, this is not an ideal scenario but it seems like you have a higher frequency of problems than anyone else I've seen with this software.

Strange, I haven't seen this since our 3.2 Installer. I'm not sure what to say but I'm glad you achieved functionality. Thanks.

Go to the registry and search for the directory names in question. Poke around a bit and you should be able to change this accordingly.

Have you tried the files one by one or in smaller groups?

Welcome. You have to go into the registry and edit this accordingly. Try searching the registry for the default directory name and poke around.

I've never had this problem with Sonicstage. It could be a conflict with previous installations; did Sonicstage 3.0 get uninstalled before installing Sonicstage 3.3?

Hiya, and welcome. Tell me why you can't use SP2, please. I want screenshots or in depth explanation of the error messages. If your PC cannot install a necessary and critical service pack, that is much more important than this business. We will correct that first and then fix Sonicstage.

Gallery upgraded to 2.0.5, and the forum upgraded to 2.1.4. "Major" security updates amongst 100+ bugfixes, apparently.

I'm considering making this a more Sony-oriented website; I think that focusing on ATRAC or at least the products that support it will not be a very future-thinking venture, especially as Sony moves to adopt more open standards with each new product.. It really hit me when I was at CES and not even the newest Walkman phone supports ATRAC..

I don't think people understand how much progress has been made since the days of Sonicstage; the updates for CP come steadfast, much moreso than before -- the team that is working on this has focus, they are very determined for an optimal user experience. Patience..

TDK Japan announced today that it will release a new update to the long running “FINE” blank Minidisc series on March 5th.+++ TDK FINE | 2006 Series Expected MSRP are as follows: 74min 1 MD = 190 yen (approx. USD$1.70), 5 MD pack = 680 yen (approx. USD$6) and 10 MD pack = 1,180 yen (approx. USD$10.30) 80min 1 MD = 220 yen (approx. USD$1.90), 5 MD pack = 780 yen (approx. USD$6.80) and 10 MD pack = 1,280 yen (approx. USD$11.20)

The Connect Player team is one of the best divisions in Sony -- I know that it may seem like unusable software but they built this from the ground up. Most of the software engineers have worked 23 hour days trying to resolve the major issues that plague the software itself. Updates are coming just as they have before, and the software will continue to improve. There should be a pretty big update this month -- from what my sources have cited there will be a monthly update cycle.

I agree!

Nothing.

The Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this year was the largest on record, bringing more than 150,000 technology enthusiasts together in a mass display of what's on deck for the consumer in 2006. Minidisc.org was present..+++ Sony had an incredible booth this year with more than 150k square feet dedicated to the latest offerings from the company. Naturally, as an embassador of Minidisc.org, I immediately reached the booth on the first day of the convention to see if there were any news related to the Minidisc format and it's vulnerable future. Unfortunately, there was absolutely no Minidisc units on display and information regarding the life of the format was impossible to ascertain. Fortunately, CES has never been the place in which each generation of Minidisc has debuted so it's not a huge loss. It is obvious that if there are to be any further developments to the Hi-MD format it will come from Europe as it did the year before during Spring. What I was able to gather is that there will be more updates for Sonicstage as Sony is definitely not ready for Connect Player to be a definitive music management program. There also seemed to be more optimism for Hi-MD and possibly NetMD devices to be eventually supported via Connect Player, which would be nice if the program reaches a more mature point. I also heard word of great enhancements and focus on opening up ATRAC (e.g. a SDK for anyone) during 2006, but unfortunately I cannot speak specifically as to what they are. As Hi-MD is able to support 352kbps ATRAC3plus, it would be a nice touch if any future units could record that way natively via the unit itself as well as any future enhancements. Please feel free to ask any questions here within this topic. --------- Sonicstage compatible Wireless Speaker Set + Remote: (More Info.)

Zoso's thoughts reflect my own. The only reason why the topic was closed is not due to the administration or staff not being complacent with homosexuality, it's just that we don't want others to feel uncomfortable here. Alexx, you can't just assume that others will not take what we say here with a grain of salt, because some will take it to heart.. It is also immature of you to create a topic based on a locked topic, if it is locked in the future please private message one of the staff. I will not warn you again about this, perhaps if I say it here publicly you will understand how serious I am about that. Thank you.
