I think it's probably 18 months old...you'd think that it would charge abit, just not hold the charge if it was dead. I'll clean the terminals and try again.

I've got 2 batteries for my NH1, and one of them refuses to charge. Doesn't matter if it's plugged into the computer or the charger, it just does nothing....can't even get the player to fire up (when play is pressed on the remote, it did say "low battery"). any ideas how to get it to charge?

thanks for the reply...no it never gets as far as trying to play a track...it just whirs and clicks for about 2-3 mins and then gives up. Oh well...this could be my excuse to buy the MZ-RH1

My MZ-NH1 won't play any discs (HI-MD or otherwise)...it just spins the disc endlessly, and says "busy wait a moment" on the remote. anyone got any ideas? Don't know what to try apart from taking the battery out - which made no difference

thanks..it's making more sense now. I've done abit more playing around, and, as I think someone else said on here earlier (and I have now seen), when you copy the file to the Hi-MD, the bitrate seems to get changed anyway, so you can only have 64 and 256, or 132 atrac3.

OK, I'm getting more and more confused. Using SonicStage (3.4) can someone explain the different CD Importing options...I thought I was OK with it, but the more I look the less I understand. I've got the different formats, and I'm only interested in the Atrac ones (not atrac lossless What does the "recording quality" dropdown do (toggles between Normal and Fast)? I've then got a whole bunch of Bit Rate options, from 48 to 352. Alongside the 132kbps option it says "Atrac 3"...why? What are all the others? Atrac3plus? Is 132 the only one that isn't Atrac3plus? Also, if you select 132, the "Recording Quality" dropdown is removed. I'm using Hi-MD 1gb disks to record onto...what bit rate, quality etc should I use? My understanding was that 64kbps Atrac3plus was of equivalent to the old "standard" recording quality on standard (pre netMD) minidisks. Is that roughly correct? If I import at a higher bitrate, will I get a better quality recording on the minidisk? Sorry for all the dumb questions...I need a really simple explanation.
