i got sonic stage with my HiMD player. and i found that it works great for the 32 mb memory stick that comes with the psp. yet it doesnt work for a duo pro memory stick :( whyyyyy sonicstage lets you put music into 48, 64, 66 (ATRAC3), 105 (ATRAC3), 132 (ATRAC3), and 256 kbps. why wont it work for the duo pro?

I understand that it's the pro duos themselves that have a problem with atrac, not just from soundstage.. but I don't know why.. I'd just make mp3's from the atracs if i were you.

You can only use ATRAC3 in MagicGate Compatible cards.
Some MS compatible with MagicGate are:
- SONY
- SanDisk
- Lexar

Currently Memory Stick PRO Duo media cannot be used to record ATRAC3/ATRAC3plus music files. Music management software is being developed. However, Memory Stick PRO Duo media can be used to record and playback MP3 music files.

mine is a SanDisk 256Mb.. The orange card..

but sonic says NO..

and even if you transfer the files to say your 32Mb card that came w/ it
then copy the folders to the 256(or whichever SonicStage dont like)

it still doesnt work..

From what I gather from sonic stage is that it says something about secure media and that the 256 card isnt.. (really this whole ATRAC thing pisses me off)

I bought a 256 card for music, so i wouldnt have to swap cards.. And the ATRAC format works great as far as space goes.. Oh well I guess..

The problem lies within SS. You could try the newest version (3.1). And if it doesn't work, send some feedback from the help menu.

My girlfriend has a Net minidisk player. It only reads encoded atrac-3 files.

we get around a number of stupid DRM issues by:

- installing sonicstage
- install realplayer
- realplayer will use sonicstage codecs for the atrac files and supports writing to the net md without the DRM.

I don't know
- if you can export atrac3 files directly from realplayer (we only use it to export directly to the MD player).
- if the outputted AT3 files would play on a pro duo card.

edit: rather humourous s/as/has in the first sentence :)
