SONY CDU-7205
3 messages in this thread
I need advice from all who may know some answers to the following
questions.
I have a SONY CDU-7205 and I want to use Kodak Access software to read
Photo-CDs. My controller card is a CDB-242 and isn't 'XA' compatible so I
can't at this point look at photo-cds using Access. I have tried talking to
SONY about the problem, but they are basically worthless when wanting to
get a timely answer. My questions are –
1) Is a CDB-X10 controller card replacement/upgrade available? How much?
From whom?
2) How many Sony Laser Library (CDU-7205) kits came with a CDU-X10 board?
Kodak lists it as an approved photo-cd platform, but I don't get the
impression such an animal exists.
3) I believe other options exist to get MPC and XA compatability. Such as –
Media Vision, Pro Audio+ board for $239
TRANTOR software driver and board patch for $39
Mathematica TEMPRA Access software for $149 [which may be incompatible
too]
Others??? How good are these in comparison, and what are the pluses and
minuses?
Thanks in advance for the answers!!! Doug
The Trantor software and our Virtual BookMaker make a great combination for
viewing Photo CD on the 7205 drives. In fact we have one installed now on
our test system.
The Trantor software also increasing the speed of the 7205 by a large
margin.
Greg,
Please tell me the details about Virtual BookMaker. Features, cost, …etc.
Thanks
