Hi all avid MD buffs-

 

First off I want to thank everyone here especially all the regular posters. I've been keeping a close eye on a lot of threads over the last few days- spent heaps of time researching a new portable music device...and all I can say is: MD, where have you been all my life?!!

 

Just got a n707, absolutely love it. I am re-discovering how much I enjoy portable music.

 

BUT...I aggree with most here, OPENMG sucks the big one. Rediculous restrictions..can't upload, CANT DELETE for crying out LOUD!! I found I couldn't even delete my own sound bytes recorded after a bunch of files downloaded with OPENMG!! absolutely crazy...

 

I got the 'Simple Burn' software, not bundled with the AUZ models, not even a mention of it (thanks sony, luv ya), and yes it is simple and is limited to LP2/LP4, but what it does, it does well and the software isn't a bugfest like openMD. Rips albums quite fast and very happy with LP2 for quality.

 

I found a quick and easy way to get my mp3's onto my MD by using Simple Burn. I haven't seen this on any other post and my apologies if I'm just repeating someone elses idea.

 

CAVEAT- you need Nero, and nero's imagedrive, or something similar that can create a virtual CD disc image, and mount it to your desktop.

 

Five easy steps to a clean and hassle free mp3-md burn:

 

 

1. Open nero, select Audio CD from the presets and drag all the MP3's you want into it. Nero is far less picky about formats and sample rates. I found this method foolproof.

 

2. Save or 'Burn' your cd to your hard drive (not your burner). Nero will give you a default filename of 'image.nrg'

 

3. Use Nero's imagedrive (bundled with nero) to mount the .nrg you just created. Lets say for this example, drive 'F'

 

 

I'm not an expert, but I found these 3 steps took around 2 MINUTES or less for a regular sized audio cd, ie: about 10 mp3 tracks to be converted and 'burned' to my hard drive as a regular audio CD 'image'. I have a PIII 1gig, so that would have helped with the mp3-aif conversion times. Faster machine=faster mp3 conversion=faster image creation.

 

Now If you know how to use Simple Burn, the rest as they say, goes without saying.

 

 

4. Select your 'virtual F' cd drive in Simple Burn & burn that sucker.

 

5. When you're done, trash the .nrg file sitting on your desktop (large file).

 

 

If your machine is 'fairly' fast (most today are) then Simpleburns' CD-Atrak conversion is done in on-the-fly in RAM. Notice your HD doesn't tick over at all.

 

ADVANTAGES TO THIS METHOD

 

*you're using reliable software

*unlike openmg, crap isn't left all over your hard drive, not to mention that f**ing checkin-checkout bullshit.

*you can delete, re-arrange tracks on your MD to your hearts content WITHOUT having to do it via your pc.

*did I mention you dont have to use openmg?

*it's faster and doesn't thrash your HD

*no openmg

 

Now..all I need is to be able to upload audio, then I will be an EXTREMELY happy customer.

 

Well thats about it. BTW, can someone please tell me why sony called their monster openMG, I would have thought openMD would have been more appropriate.

 

cya's and thanks again.
