What drives are supported

Post by natblend »

Dave
I just got my Samsung SE-S084, via the Amazon link you provided.
When I put in a CD+G disk, an audio disk appears and boots up ITunes
and a second disk Icon shows up, but it's empty.
The manual is no help.
Is there something I'm doing or not doing?
Thanks.

the "manual" is a help if you find the right page:

says right at the top part that you're supposed to turn off the iTunes autoplay.

Right.
No problems now, except for a Mac issue.
Top Tune disks won't eject, and they freeze up the finder.
I try relaunching the finder, then end up having to do forced shutdown.
Every other company CD-G disk works just fine.

I've had this problem with Mac drives. I had one CDG that refused to come out now matter what I did so I took the laptop to the Apple store and they replaced the drive. I'd only just got the laptop so I was trying it out to see if It would read CDG's. I then went out and bought the cheapest CD drive I could find and I've never had a problem with that. I might be wrong but I think (generally) the cheaper ones work better for reading CDG's than the more expensive ones

some CD+G discs have a "dual volume" format, they're multisession CDs with two virtual volumes on them. they do this to make it difficult to rip them, but i've fixed kJams to be able to read them anyway. the problem is that the Finder (the MacOS actually) hasn't been fixed to be able to EJECT them. Sadly, there is nothing i can do about it, the only way out is to restart while holding the mouse button. do not let go of the mouse button until the disc ejects.
