lewpei Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 I recently purchased a bunch of used MD's from E-BAY a & when I tried to erase some of them to reuse the message "TR PROTECTED" came up. I was not able to ease the MD so I could use it again. What I want to know if there is any way I can erase these MD's for reuse or are they junk only fit for the garbage pile?I have a Sony home NETMD unit.Thank you for your help.Lew.

BobS Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 These have been recorded from SonicStage which sets a bit to keep the tracks from being erases. If you have access to an older MD unit (I use my MDS-JB920) it will ignore the TrPrt and erase the disc anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
