just to clarify incase i.m having a blonde moment

i recorded a lecture using himd nh1 machine onto a standard (not himd) disc at LP4.. i have tried to upload this to my pc but transfer wont complete.

i thought that i could upload any recording done at any LP if using a hi-md machine - but

it would seem that i have to use a hi-md disc as well?

so

...

does this mean that i have to use himd discs if i want to upload anything ?

ta folks

1GB HiMDs can only be used in HiMD mode, while standard 60/74/80min MDs can be used either in MD or HiMD mode. Recordings in MD mode (SP/LP2/LP4/MONO) can't be uploaded. In HiMD mode you can choose between PCM (1411 kbps, uncompressed, best quality), HiSP (256 kbps, light compression, good quality) and HiLP (64 kbps, high compression, low quality). Format/erase the disc after choosing HiMD mode to access it. Recordings in all three modes can be uploaded but are incompatible with older, non HiMD equipment. Because of the reformatting, you can fit almost twice the data onto the disc. Instead of 320min in LP4 you'll get 600min in HiLP - instead of 80min in SP you'll get 140min in HiSP mode onto one standard 80min disc at comparable quality.
