JonasE Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 Hello! I have a strange recording problem with my E11. It seems to read any disk just fine, better than others. Recordning on new (unused) discs seems to work fine. Used discs can fail. A lot of dropouts. Sometimes other players cannot play the track at all. I tried recording five 10 second tracks in a row, leaving recording mode between each. Three of them could be played on another player, two could not. Took it apart for a look. Visually all looks ok. The magnetic head rests on the disc during record. And it is clean. Also measured the voltage related to the laser diode in test mode, and that seemed ok. Also tried raising the laser power somewhat and it seemed to have effect but the next recording (after lowering again) was OK too. Any ideas welcome! Best regards, Jonas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgallen Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 A bit late, but before trying anything more drastic, considering it was working well and looks intact, I would do the ole remove and reinsert cables/ribbon cables inside, to remove any oxidisation. Ping back if you’re still around and want more info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
