Ah, I hadnt managed to find that. Thanks. It might help, when I get round to understanding it properly......

Thanks for the reply. Bit annoying that i'll have to buy a new player though. Cheers anyway.

Im having issues with my Sharp MD-SR 50 When recording, it writes in to memory fine (the line in port works), but when I press stop (to write to the disc?) It says TOC edit, as it should, then Er MD-41 Can anyone shed any light on this? I'm told by the manual that Er MD ** is a message that the CPU has detected an error, go get it fixed. Is there anything I can do myself, or is it knackered?
