Import Problem With Sonicstage 2.3

[gigolo]

Hi everybody,

I have a problem on my vaio a115b (windows XP /SP1 / Sonicstage 2.3 upgrade / MD SimpleBurner 2.0) :

I can burn individual files on my mz-n707 netmd with Sonicstage , but I can't import CDs into Sonicstage library ( real CDs or images created with Nero Image Drive)

same error occurs when trying to burn with MD SimpleBurner ;

listening files to burn or files on netmd works.

error message is : "an error has occured while preparing to record the CD"

I have noticed that CD Recording Format tab in recording parameters window is empty (both recording format window and bit rate scrolldown list) : is this ok ?

I have tried to disable Nero and re-enabling Windows imapi burning service, without success .

btw, I have the same problem than many others on this forum with Sonictage 2.3 on my desktop computer running Windows XP / SP2.

Thanks in advance for your help.

It appears to me that your copy of SonicStage 2.3 is missing the "CD-R Writing Module(Audio CD/ATRAC CD/MP3 CD) : latest version is 2.3.00.10260." That explains the missing Audio CD/ATRAC CD/MP3 CD tab from your SonicStage 2.3. Hence, you do not need to disable nor re-enable Windows imapi burning service.

Try this instead --> click and download the SonicStage® v2.3 Application Upgrade Installer. The SonicStage 2.3 Application Upgrade Installer should install the missing "CD-R Writing Module(Audio CD/ATRAC CD/MP3 CD."

Good luck with the fix.

CD-R Writing Module is already listed in "About SonicStage" popup , with version 2.3.00.1120

is that version ok ?

could it be another audio codec interfering with this module ?

I have seen on Sony site that default setting of CD Recording Format is ATRAC3 132kbps (it appears on "Recording" popup)

maybe other formats are not allowed for netmd ?

anyway, the problem occurs even when my netmd is not connected to my laptop.

By clicking "Parameters" button on this popup, "CD Recording Format 'My Library)" popup shows up, but it is completly blank.

same problem with Tools/Options/ CD Recording / Recording Format/ Select Format" too (it opens the same blank popup).

The problem is that I 'm able to import and burn individual files on my NetMd with SonicStage, but I can't import a whole cd into library at once.

Format conversion of imported files works (I can choose between 3 diifferent bit rates for ATRAC3).

SimpleBurner does'nt work at all , since it accepts CDs or image files only.
