So Im using the other bad player I have to video tape the CEDs I have, that player has load problem and when the disk starts you have to turn off the machine , or it run to the stop in the middle of the player. its to bad it was a good format , it ran will for its life will try to get one more player on ebay , if that doesnt work I am done. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: "jerryproctor" <forrestp1> To: <digest@cedmagic.com> Subject: J-400 Repair Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2002 21:14:03 -0500 I recently acquired a perfectly working SJT-400 player from CED Central. Of course, like all machines closing in on 20 years of age, it has started to display an odd quirk. No matter which side of a disc that is inserted into the player, it starts 20-25 seconds into the recorded material. It often takes an abnormally long time (Several seconds) for the player to actually start playing the disc too. Before I crack the player open and make things worse, does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Forrest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Sat, 21 Dec 2002 20:31:16 -0800 To: digest@cedmagic.com From: Tom Howe <tom@cedmagic.com> Subject: Happy Holidays! Season's Greeting All: If you can't make out the ASCII holiday image below, try viewing it in the Courier font, and if you happen to have the "Mickey's Christmas Carol" CED, this ASCII rendition is derived from an image on the disc 25:44 into the program material. In about a week, you'll also be able to view the image at CED Magic at the following URL when I get the Volume 7 Digest archives on-line:
