ifihadahifi Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Okay I've tried everything.I have a cd for SS 1.5 that has worked with this md on my last computer and other computers about 6 months ago.I have tried updating to SS 2.3, including doing a clean install following the regedit instructions and everything. Unable to transfer files. They convert but don't transfer.I have tried using M3U2SB and Nero and M3U2SB and Daemon and Simple Burner. Transfers fail.I have tried getting new drivers from other sources on the net and reinstalling them.I have diligently read numerous topics in this forum and others. All of these programs read the minidisc and i can delete/edit my mds through them but cannot transfer.I'm looking for any suggestions over here. Anything would be much appreciated.thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Hrm..what operating system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parad0X Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 I´ve got a very similar problem.SS 1.5 used to work fine under W98, but now I moved to XP Pro and reinstalled SS.Every time I try to transfer a file I get an error when converting, and of course, cannot transfer.If I try to convert before the Check out process, the whole task finishes in a blink, and it reports the conversion was successful (although the files still are identified as MP3).I´ve read in some other forums this might have something to do with codecs, but...Unless I find a way to transfer, my MD is USELESS.Please help!

Christopher Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Read the faq's at the top of this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parad0X Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 I GOT IT!!!The problem was really an inter-codec-missunderstanding, to give it a name.Following part of the instructions from Kurisu, I removed the folders and registry entries, but did not install SP2... but just because I got errors...Anyway, the real results came after this.I went to download.com and searched for atrac3.There were two results: One program that claims to be able to convert (but it´s not true) and a codec pack.Sorry, Kurisu, but this codec pack worked my miracle.I reinstalled SS 1.5 (bundled with my MD) and it converted perfectly at the first attempt.I have not tried MP3, DIVX or DVDs, but for that, I have my plasma screen... Anyway, I hope this will help someone with the same issues I had.Enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 You need to stop using Sonicstage 1.5 and upgrade to 2.3, as per the instructions at the top of the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parad0X Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 Why should I upgrade to 2.3?For me, if it´s not bronken, why fix it?My 1.5 works, and just a while back I transferred a full MD with no problems.But well, maybe there is something I don´t know? Thanx anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 So, after you uninstalled completely the only thing you installed was Sonicstage 2.3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ifihadahifi Posted February 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 So, after you uninstalled completely the only thing you installed was Sonicstage 2.3?←yeah, i went right to connect.com and installed 2.3 from there. didn't even use the cd i got with my md. the cd has SS 1.5 and simple burner (i don't know what version) and drivers. like i said the programs open, files convert, they just can't be transfered.here's a screenshot from simple burner: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parad0X Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Are you sure the files are converted?This was the problem I used to have. The program reported they had been converted successfuly, but in the media drive, they still looked like MP3s.Check that point.Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
