Ronald,
What exactly are you trying to do? Are you going to use this CAVS player to do shows or is this just for home use?

No what I am saying is they are stored on the SCDG (DVD) as one or more large .dat files that contain multiple songs in each file. You will need a program to extract those songs to another format. The program I use is called CDGFix. You can search for it on the internet as this is not an MTU program.

In that case, no, Microstudio does not have any conversion one way or the other for SCDG.
CAVS does have a conversion program they sell to take CDG files and build a SCDG disk. Before you buy their program though I would recommend you read their forums and note the many complaints they get. This would not be my choice for backing up as there are better ways that are much more reliable.
