So I voted linux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skradgee Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 This should have been multiple choice (so more than one answer can be selected). Can we make polls like that?XP, Vista, Fedora, blah blah blah...haven't used a Mac in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your best dual booting windows and linux, minidisc isn't that good with linux, I don't think there is any good sofware for it...There is NotMD, but I haven't got it workin'!

Wow I can't believe I never heard of that NotMD program. It's a shame the developer stopped working on it... Maybe we can spark some interest somehow. I guess it wouldn't work for transferring tracks from Hi-MD>PC though. I wonder if MarC (Hi-MD Renderer) develops any stuff on Linux.. ?

danielbb90 Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 (edited) I don't know,Hi-MD renderer needs SonicStage to run. I think the only option there is Real-Time with Audacity. Real-Time recordings don't sound fun! Remember it it open source, if you know python... Edited August 11, 2006 by danielbb90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
House Posted August 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 XP, Vista, Fedora, blah blah blah...haven't used a Mac in a while.You run the Vista beta? How well is it running for you? i installed it on an old P3 800mhz 256mb ram machine and it didn't even work. Most likely a compatibility issue with the video card .. it's very temprimental.. Your best dual booting windows and linux, minidisc isn't that good with linux, I don't think there is any good sofware for it...There is NotMD, but I haven't got it workin'! Yeah, i think i might try a dual boot.If i can get this NotMD aplication working, then it'd all be great. If not, real time in Audacity it is!!

raintheory Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 (edited) Actually, I'm trying a method I came across that involves using VMware Server and a virtual installation of windows (with samba sharing enabled to get files from Linux>Virtual Windows....) I'll post back if it can get it working smoothly.Right now the Virtual Windows 2000 install is downloading and installing SonicStage..See here: http://undocumentedcode.com/?p=15EDIT: It's all pretty humorous actually... I'm doing this whole thing from a VNC connection on my Laptop computer.. So from this WinXP Laptop, I am controlling a Linux box upstairs, which in turn has a Virtual installation of Win2000 Pro on it..
