The CD mastering source that Walnut Creek was writing data into one of the
sectors that CDTV looks in to determine what type of disk was inserted.
Apparently there is no error checking in the ROM code and it goes boom.
Commodore has been advised about this and Walnut Creek is aware of it.
(That's why their current catalogs specifically say that AB20 won't work
with CDTV.)
The guys at Walnut Creek told me that future discs would be CDTV
compatible and it looks like they came through. I am using their GIFs
Galore disc right now on my CDTV parnetted to the A2500.
