The plextor website says that the 716 does not support cdg. I suppose that is why the 716 is better, it has the error correction from the software decoding and is superior to the hardware.

Check the datasheet for the 716A - CD+G is listed as one of the usable formats, so it does support it and does use the hardware decoding. My thought is because of the increased speed capability of the 760 that it isn't as clean.

Ask admin he can tell you about the 716. It is not made by plextor, it is made for plextor. I have one, and before we started doing the software decoding it was useless. It only works on the newer version of hoster.

Sorry, I wish it wernt so. I have a few programs it will not work with .
