Minidisc Community Forums And ATRACLife Merging With Sony Insider Forums

mdcf

Greetings. I am very excited to announce today that all of the data (posts, topics, etc), members, and so forth from Minidisc Community Forums and its once-existing sister site ATRACLife will be converged into the Sony Insider forums. I feel that this is the best way to unify all of this important data and bring a fresh appearance (and new software) to our existing users. The forums.minidisc.org domain will forward to this new domain before the end of 2009. I understand that this is a big change, but it will be worth it moving forward. This will also create one of the largest forums ever dedicated to the Sony brand, as the Minidisc forum has more than 76,000 registered users and the ATRACLife forum had more than 30,000 if I recall correctly.

Thanks for your continued support.

    It is odd that more people posted on the old atraclife forum with regards to walkmans, I am sure people know this site also has a forum?

    I have installed a new Lithium-ion battery in my Sony Walkman MZ-N10. This seems to be working OK, so far, except for reset of the battery charging information stored in the product.

    There is a page of instructions for resetting this battery information (it stores remaining charging time and the “number of times of fully charging”).

    To access this we have to enter the Test Mode. Instructions in the Service Manual explain there are 3 “different methods” of doing this. The first is a jumper on the circuit board, which I have not tried. The 2nd and 3rd involve using a series of key strokes on the controls. I have followed this but the unit will not proceed into Test Mode. So I can't begin to follow the other instructions for resetting the battery information.

    Is there something misleading in the instructions? For example is the jumper on the circut board required anyway? I just need correct instructions for accessing the “Test Mode”

    I love minidiscs! I wish Sony would get off their horses and do something about promoting them bettter, especially with commercials and etc. It is a shame they stop making the car recievers and home deck models. I hope they don't drop them. I would love to see a commercial with a guy holding a minidisc and a ipod and telling the pros and cons between the two and end up smashing the ipod and saying “Minidisc is better, get with it!”

    Please feel free to read my email to Sony on Minidiscs due to the rumor of decline cause of the Ipods at my Myspace page of chadergeist under the title Minidiscs Live On For The Future! in my blog.

    Sony MD (both media and players/recorders) is their very best audio creation ever. I look forward to its return to the public sales. Is there a hope anyhow?

    I want to transfer hundreds of songs from Minidisc back to my hard drive using my HI-MD player. However, most were recorded on the LP configuration on an earlier precorder which I no longer have. What players will download these files back to my recorder so that I don't have to copy them in real time?
