biggles Posted March 3, 2004 Report Share Posted March 3, 2004 I havea Sony MZ-N10 which, up until now, has been used purely for listening purposes. I have just started to use it for recording audio from video shoots. I have noticed that after a longish 'shoot' (say 5 minutes or more) it seems to take a very long time to either save data or edit the TOC. Is this normal or is there something wrong with my MD unit?

KJ_Palmer Posted March 3, 2004 Report Share Posted March 3, 2004 It's normal for an MD to take some time during the TOC Edit / Data Save phase. It depends how long you mean by "very long". I don't have the N10, but I haven't noticed that the process takes longer than about 20 seconds on my units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAjEsTiC Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 i think that your MD might either be screwed up or the lens can't read the disc properly that's y it takes a while for it to do a TOC edit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggles Posted March 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 I recorded about 30 secs of speech and then watched Data Save blink on and off for 5 minutes before I gave up and left it to its own devices. I think something is very wrong with my MD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggles Posted March 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 Hm, just did some more testing. I tried recording 5secs, 10 secs, 15secs etc and everything went well until I recorded 30 secs. Then it just went into limbo, but this time flashing TOC Edit for ever (now up to 6 minutes and still going!) What expereinces have people had with Sony after sales service? At least it's still in warranty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAjEsTiC Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 if it's still under warranty take it back...they will fix it free of charge...after the warranty has expire they will fix it but at a price..the time taken for the unit to be repaired varies...it was around 2 odd weeks for my N1 to get back to me....but generally the service is generally good...

biggles Posted March 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 I meant to post a follow up message ages ago. I took my unit into the authorised dealer for warranty repairs and had it back (and fixed :smile: ) in 4 days! I'm impressed!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
