Dachande Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Hello!I just got new car stereo with atrac support, so I decided to convert my original cd's to atrac to see if theres any difference.I used 192 kbps, as I supposed it's the best ratio between size/quality.And after getting 50 cd's to my library, i started making atrac cd playlist.But, it does not let me transfer it! It wanted to do it in 64 kbps only. It doesnt want to do it in 192.And i really dont want to convert already converted albums.Please help.TY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aob9 Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 What else does SS say apart from only letting you burn in 64k?.........any messages,errors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dachande Posted September 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Im not at home right now, so I cannot check.But the thing was, it asked me which size do i want, default is 64kbps, and it let me choose, 256 and even 320, but I dont want to do that.I just want to do transfer as it is, and it does not let me. But as i said, i cannot remember exact words why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as i said, i cannot remember exact words why.Instead of selecting a bitrate just select 'standard transfer mode' .This should allow you to burn the disc with the current ATRAC bitrate.

Heman Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 (edited) You've no choice, Atrac CD is 256K onlySony doesn't allow 192kbps for AtracCD. The only bitrates supported for AtracCD are Atrac3 bitrates (132kbps, 105kbps, 66kbps), and Atrac3+ (256kbps, 64kbps, and 48kbps). Anything other than those will be transcoded. Period. I'm amazed that people are happy to give wrong information here.Yes, you're right - it fits for my portable CD player D-NE800 too but not standardized as learned! It is wise to consult the manual first so your time is not spent useless, and extra money on CD's. 256k is my fault-free choice.

bockers Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Atrac CD burning no longer works . Give up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grenert Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Atrac CD burning no longer works . Give up I am able to burn ATRAC CDs with version 3,4, but no luck with version 4.0. I haven't tried the latest version (4.3). I have no need for any of the functions of 4.0 and higher, so I just stick with 3.4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
