I recently had a lot of discs stolen from my car. Fortunately they were almost all backups. Except for a SoundChoice CD which I had to repurchase. I made a backup and took it to my favorite place. The sound was on, but there were no graphics. My favorite place has a new system including a single disc cdg/vcd player and a multiple cd player going through a cdg decoder. People who bring their own have it played on the single player. They also have a DVD player(I don't know if it also goes through the decoder)

I thought that the trouble might be that the KJ maybe switched the players too fast, or worse sabotaged it all somehow. (don't ask me why I actually think a KJ might sabotage a disc of mine!) I took the disc home and it plays fine on my computer, and from my DVD Digital Optical Output through a decoder. It looks beautiful. Why didn't the graphics show?? I think I am going to try the disc again with a friendlier KJ.

Is this the typical "Sound Choice" problem or is it a different problem altogether??

I believe others will have to know the disc number to help you. :r

I don't understand your response. I am asking if the symptom is what others are experiencing or if it is different. Knowing the disc number seems to be irrelevant. However, it is 2194. It's a Spanish song disc including the Vicente Fernandez song "Me Voy a Quitar De En Medio"

Once again, even though it is a Sound Choice disc, I am banking on Pilot Error when they tried to play it last Friday. I am very happy to be working with Microstudio. And my stuff works just fine on their equipment, usually.

It helps to know if it is one of the newer discs or not to know the disc number if it was a recording problem. It would help to know if he uses a manual switch to switch between the video inputs or not as the guy might have forgotten to flip the switch that selects what player it shows the video with. I use to have to do that when I was operating both a laser player and a CDG player in '93.
I switched to just CDG in '95 and in 2000 I added VCD to my CDG to get a song that was only available on laser, DVD, and VCD but wasn't available on CDG. I switched over in '95 because I got tired of having to switch video sorces manually and at the time couldn't afford a Video/Audio Mixing amp until this year. I still don't use the video/audio switcher because of the lag time of the switching as I've started DJing when I run short of song requests otherwise I would just set up with 1 regular cd player, 1 VCD/CDG player the amplifier, speakers and a tv.
