LAM-Z05
Hello,
I have been playing with the latest release candidate of Platinum MD. I am running it on OSX, and have tested an MDS-NT1, and LAM-Z05. Figured I'd let you know how it went.
For the NT1 it works perfectly, no issues.
Not so much for the LAM-Z05. It seems to kinda work, but had a few hiccups. For reference, the Z05 seems to work with D9's test app, but fails to connect with web minidisc. I have the full logs saved from writing a complete album, but have excerpts here to make it easier.
When first plugging in the device and trying to connect it cycles between connected and negotiating (the device is also incorrectly labeled as the Z10, but I don't think there is much difference). Image: https://i.imgur.com/Dl12boc.png (Sorry, can't seem to copy and paste from the console). Eventually it stops cycling and stays connected.
If I try to send a file, it seems to transfer correctly, but sometimes fails giving the following error. Image: https://i.imgur.com/amxzAcl.png Sending a whole album it failed two or three times at different tracks before it completed.
The completed disc did not playback the first two tracks. After trying it in another device it failed playback smoothly at all (skipping and freezing). I worried it was a dirty laser or something (the Z05 does give a disc error with known ok discs occasionally), but I rewrote the disc using SonicStage on the Z05 and it works perfectly, leading me to believe it is a software issue. I'll give it another run through just in case.
If there is anything you want me to test, let me know.
Re-visiting this one, I don't have that model to test with - would be worth another test with the latest v1.2.0 release to see if it's still not working.
Someone just mentioned in the discord that it seems to work now with the LAM-Z05. The app identifies it as the LAM-10, but it can write tracks without issue.
I'll double check it when I get back home, but it seems to be fixed.
What changed between 1.1 and 1.2?
Awesome - there is a full changelog in the release notes, but the fix for this would be in the updated linux-minidisc binaries that have also been updated to better support HiFi units.
So, I checked it out myself. It seems to work for the most part. It can read and write discs, and even control playback. Super excited to be able to use this as my main recorder!
The one issue I found is that it always shows the disc title as "untitled" even if the disc actually has one, and even though it lets you set one (and it appears to write said title, even though it continues to display it as "untitled" within the app).
Hello,
I have been extensively testing PMD over the last few days, and talking with another user who owns a Z05 in the minidisc.wiki discord.
Other than the above mentioned title issue, I have spotted one issue. When trying to write a large amount of tracks (in this case 70+ for an English listening disc, note that all tracks still clock in under 80 minutes), it often throws up errors around 30 or so and starts skipping tracks. Bellow is the excerpt from the logs:

It just skips a track and then keeps going. Usually will only skip one, but it will skip another later on.
Eventually it errored out completely and stopped transfering:

Neither of these two errors occur with SS or when transferring directly from CD -> MD
No clue if any of this helps, but I figure I'd point it out.
