To your last request
I did exactly what you requested again. This time in steps, I went all the way down to "No Acelleration" and playing the CD each time, the same problem exists. So that was not the cause.
Remember I mentioned I tested it in another CDG machine, and also to a karaoke show. This time I went into my equipment stock and pulled out my USB Plextor PXW48A1.03 drive and inserted the disk in it. It plays like a champ, just like all the other machines I played it on. Unless you come up with something else I think I have a bad laptop CD+G drive. and I am out of the guarentee period by about two months. Any other suggestions before I go broke.

JDavia,
The only brand of drives that will work to play the Karaoke CD in Microstudio are the Plextor. So if your laptop drive is anything other than a Plextor, this is the problem. You must use the Plextor drive for it to work correctly.

ONE MORE TIME !!! Plextor
Quote:
Whatever drive is in the cheap machine a "Memerox" or that was used at the karaoke show, I don't know, but they worked perfectly on playback. So if I need a Plextor drive for it to work flawlessly. My posts have have always been about it not playing back flawlessly from the Plextor drive in my MTU laptop. |

Skipping...
jdavia,
I have Micro 2.4 installed on my other computer & same thing happened over the week-end!! When I play a cdg file from the hard drive or directly from the plextor the sound skips and the graphic will also have some problems. Could you please post your dxdiag so I will compare with what I have? Perhaps a new update from Windows created that problem? Thanks |

JDAVIA,
The drives that come in the Laptops won't do Karaoke, thus the reason that you must have the External USB drive that we ship with the systems. This is the only way to get around the Laptops, not being able to support the CD+G format. I hope this is all clear now for you, what you must do for it to work correctly.

Hardware Intel Proc. 2.4GHz, 256MB PC2100 DDR Memory 533 Front System Bus, Built in 15.7 display Dual display ATI MR9000 Graphics plus a singers karaoke display. Storage Devices Two UDMA-100 hard drives, MTU CDG Certified, 8x-write, 24x- read CD-recorder (internally mounted) Floppy, DVD-ROM drive for playing future Karaoke discs. DVD-ROM drive can be replaced with a third 60GB drive. HOSTER Professional Laptop Model Computer (internally mounted)and a DVD-ROM drive. This Hoster Laptop model computer is engineered for portability to host a remote Karaoke show. It comes with two 60GB hard drives with backup software, a MTU CDG Certified CD-Recorder drive (internally mounted) Could it be that MTU had problems with it that they no longer install them in the laptop. The only reason I have the USB outboard one wasto use with another computer, not the laptop. So now I either must to use it, or MTU make good on their position that what I was sold works on my laptop. ![]() |
