My best friend is stationed overseas in Afghanistan, and he wants me to record him some MD’s and send them to him. He arranged for his sister to send me her MD player so that I could do this.
It’s an MZ-N420D, or “Sony NetMD Walkman.” I figured that dumping some Mp3’s over USB onto the discs would be a piece of cake.
Now that you’re done cracking up, I need help! Is there a program out there that will convert MP3’s into whatever the proprietary MD format is, and then send them over USB into the player, onto the disc? Every MP3 -> MD program I’ve found is based around the idea of simply recording your music into the MD player in realtime - but this MD Walkman doesn’t have an audio input! The only input it has is the USB input.
The included software (“Soundstage”) just plain doesn’t work - it freezes 90% of the time, and keeps giving me bizarre errors when trying to transfer files to the player. I finally gave up a few minutes ago after it froze, leaving the player completely unresponsive. I had to take the battery out to get it under control!
Does anyone know anything about these things? Help!
