thedanielrecord Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Hi, I'm having problems with Simple Burner. I recently had to uninstall my copy of SonicStage ( i think it was 3.1 ) and Simple Burner because the software would freeze and crash after only 37% of an mp3 was converted. I d/led the copy of SImple Burner 2.0 and now I can't upload CDs to my NH1. Strangely enough, the CD isn't labeled by Gracenote. Nothing happens, it's weird.I remember you had to properly uninstall the old versions of OpenMG and SonicStage by going into the registry ( i haven't done that yet because i can't remember how or if it's necessary ) . I pretty much uninstalled the my old copy of Sonicstage using add/remove in the control panel. Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it? thanks.

emxalpha Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 The simple burner software cannot be used independent of sonicstage. It must have a version installed to work. To make it owrk you have to uninstall simpleburner and reinstall it after installing a version of sonicstage.let me know if it works.

The Low Volta Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 hi, welcome to MDCF...I'm not sure whether this is the reason for the problem as I don't really understand the explanation completely, but beware that SB requires a working version of SS to functionbesides, just check this thread for precise uninstall instructions, as it could be a problem with remaining bitsfurthermore... to enable ppl to help you in a better way, please read and post according to the rules (with full specifications and as complete a description as possible of the problem)feel free to post further questions and good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedanielrecord Posted August 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 (edited) Thanks for the replies. I already have installed SonicStage 3.2 and I just finished cleaning up the registry. Then i tried to reinstall Simple Burner. Nothings working. In case you don't understand my problem here it is :1. i had a problem with sonicstage 3.1. I uninstalled all sony MD related software ( SS 3.1 and SB)2. I reinstalled Sonicstage 3.2. 3. I tried to reinstall SB. The software starts up, but all my cds remain unrecognized and can't be transfered to my MZ-NH1.i'm going to try to uninstall everything again and do this one more time. I think i'm going to try installing the 3.1 version of SonicStage. thanks a lot. please let me know if you have anymore ideas.

The Low Volta Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 do install 3.2 (as it is a big improvement over 3.1) but cleanly according to the thread mentioned above... just a couple more questions:- was SS3.2 working at any time?- have you 'tested' the CD drive with SB?- have you registered at CDDB?- is your HiMD recognized?- have you got any codec packs installed (FFDshow...)?- could you please state all specifications according to the rules? (it's not that we want you to 'follow the rules or we won't help you'... this is just so that anyone trying to help has the clearest view of the situation and problems as possible)thanks and good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedanielrecord Posted August 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Sorry, about that. I actually thought i was posting by the rules. I'll be more specific. I reinstalled and uninstalled and eventually settled with SS 3.2. I do however, have a bunch of random codecs that I installed using the Matroska 1.1.1 lite pack. It's listed at this address. Matroska 1.1.1 packSorry, I didn't actually think listing the codecs i had installed was necessary. Either way, sonicstage 3.2 works fine. It recognizes my CD and I'm ripping CDs to my MZ-NH1 by turning the CDs into OMG and then transfering them ( which is quite slow ). I tested my CD rom drive and I registered with CDDB ( or at least i think i did by pressing the "registration" button. I just uninstalled the Matroska Pack, as it appears that it causes problems do to FFDshow. Hopefully this will work. It's strange because I had this codec pack installed earlier and i was problem free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedanielrecord Posted August 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 I uninstalled the pack and tried to reinstall SB 2.0.4 and nothing happened. It still has the same problems as I can't get CDDB to label my tracks. I end up with untitled groups with numbered tracks. Oh also, the CD will play but I won't get any sound while trying to play it using SB. Just incase, I'm using XP with the 2nd service pack. I'm thinking maybe i didn't correctly remove FFDshow. I just uninstalled the pack it came in and searched around through the registry to remove anything that was left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedanielrecord Posted August 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 I clean uninstalled all my codecs and SS 3.2 and SB 2.0. Using CDDB won't register my CDs while SS 3.2 will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
