Tron Posted January 2, 2005 Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 I have an MP3 hard drive player (Archos Gmini 400) and I would like to record music from my MD to the MP3 player. Is there a way I can record from the digital optical out on my MD player to the PC and end up with the music being in MP3 or WMA format with the individual tracks saved automatically as individual files ? I know I could use the analogue RCA output of the MD player to sample the MD's into the PC and then convert them to MP3. But using that method will loose quality and each MD will be sampled as one single track, so I will then have to find the track lenghts on the MD and manually split the MP3 files accordingly. And I've got quite a few MD's I want to put onto my MP3 player ! So that method would be very tedious and frustrating ! Even if I could somehow record the MD's to a CD-RW using the digital out, and then rip the CD to the harddrive using Windows Media Player, would be better than recording from the analogue RCA outputs.

Tron Posted January 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 I have a stand alone Sony MDS-S38 which has digital optical in and out. I also have a MD walkman MZ-R30 which has digital optical in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
