Guest Anonymous Posted December 16, 2002 Report Share Posted December 16, 2002 Bought my Sony MZ-N707 and generally very pleased with usability and sound quality. Simple Burner much easier than full OpenMG Jukebox - but using either I have not been able to access the (installed) Gracenote CDDB server to download album and tract details. I assume something is not set up correctly but cannot get anyone/anywhere to tell me what to do. Using XP Home on a Dell laptop with internet access via Freeserve in the UK. Help!

ludde Posted December 16, 2002 Report Share Posted December 16, 2002 Have you tried patching Simple Burner? There is a patch avalible for simpleburner and if i am not mistaging, it includes a fix for some CDDB problem. I am not sure where to get it tho, maybe someone else could help. Anyone know what I´m talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Be_True Posted December 16, 2002 Report Share Posted December 16, 2002 Here is a download page for the software and patches for the Sony N707. http://www.musiclub.sonystyle.com/supportj...21&deviceId=105 Does that help? Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutkin Posted January 2, 2003 Report Share Posted January 2, 2003 Hi am very interested in this question. I have MZN1, absolutely LOVE it! Works a treat, and am transferring my Cd and cassette and vinyl collections to MD. But I cannot access CDDB either. I use win98, by the way. Everything else works fine. I can go thru the registration process for CDDB then get "unable to contact server" then "check your network". I have no network! I have a ZoneAlarm firewall but disabled it before attempting to contact CDDB, no difference still cannot do it. Any ideas much appreciated. I have visited Gracenote website but cannot seem to get same info from that source, no facility to log on... nutkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nutkin Posted January 8, 2003 Report Share Posted January 8, 2003 Here I am again! Well, cannot get CDDB thru either Simple Burner or OpenMG BUT I have found a way to get track info - have downloaded free RealOne Player which works like a charm. Only prob is you have to work in real time rather than high speed, but you can play your CD, save tracks with info to a Library, then download the library to your MD. Bit more tedious but works well. You might like to try it, mdvirgin! cheers Nutkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leland Posted January 9, 2003 Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 This CDDB issue is difficult to troubleshoot. I have OpenMG Jukebox 2.2 running on Win 2K on my laptop and on my Win XP Home desktop and have not trouble accessing CDDB in either case. I either hook up with a modem from the laptop or I connect using a DSL line at home through a router. So for what it is worth, it is possible. Have you asked you ISP for help? It might be an ISP issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
