RE: Scan SC2000 - My new player is not playing some of my Audio CD-R`s

I have been to this site and can find lots of questions, but where are the answers ??!!

Scan SC2000 - My new player is not playing some of my Audio CD-R`s

My replacement Scan player (which I received about 2 months ago) is not playing some of my Audio CD-R`s. I went through my whole collection last night and found 8 it would not play. I am certain these were playing on the unit which was returned. Is anyone else having any similar problems ?
Should I contact Scan for another replacement unit ??
PS I am currently running V2.14 F/W.

Scan SC2000 - I am currently using F/W V2.14. What is the latest and what does it have to offer ?

Sraight forward answers to the confusing questions about F/W versions PLEASE.

Scan SC2000 - What are the features of F/W V2.16 delivered with my mates new player ?

Can we have a straight forward answer to the current F/W versions available please.

RE: What do you think of the Scan SC-2000?

Why don`t you like the remote contol ??!!!
It`s one of the best I have seen - very well laid out etc
Try using the one with Hitachi DVD players - it is absolute garbage.

RE: What is the Best dvd player under £200?

I`m happy with my Scan-SC2000

RE: Black and White

Sounds like you are not converting to PAL50

RE: MP3 CD-R Burning

You want to use some software like `Music Match Jukebox`.
When the put a CD in your PC CD Drive, it goes onto the web and locates the CD in the CDDB. This then automatically displays the CD Title and all of the Track titles. When ripping down to MP3 the info is automaically put into the MP3 header. The MP3 disk you then create will then obviously contain all this info - the tracks will still however be placed in alphabetical order (unless you rename them in the order you want as TRACK001, TRACK002 etc ...)

Scan SC-2000 `MP3 Fastforward and rewind` New functionality

I have installed the latest V2.14 F/W on my Scan.
I have just noticed that Fastforward and Rewind now works when playing MP3 disks - a terrific feature !

Was this introduced in V2.14 ?

Scan SC-2000 `Not playing SVCD`s`

This problem was apparently intoduced in V2.14 Firmware - is anyone looking into fixing it ?

Also, there was some talk about F/W supporting long MP3 file names - is this still a possible future enhancement.

RE: Amazing Wharfedale 750 Deal

My understanding is that the 750s plays MP3 disks whilst the 750 doesn`t.

RE: Scan SC-2000 and R2 Disney Disks

This sounds like great news - I wish Scan themselves would keep us all as well informed.

RE: Scan SC2000 - Problems - Help

I think I may have also seen this on the Disney Dinosaurs DVD as well.

RE: Scan SC-2000 and R2 Disney Disks

Are you out there Nelley ?

Scan SC-2000 and R2 Disney Disks

Any update on the forthcoming F/W to correct the R2 Disney problems ?

RE: SCAN FIRMWARE V2.14

Is it fully tested ?

Does it include the `long MP3 filenames` ??

Does it fix the R2 Disney problem ???

RE: New sc2000 firmware available yet

Has it been fully tested ?

Does it fix the R2 Disney problem ??

Does it contain the `long MP3 filenames` ???

Is it still `VCR friendly` ????

Scan SC-2000 `Some Audio CD`s are not playing`

I have now discovered 3 of my Audio CD`s so far that will not play at all on the Scan DVD Player (I`m fairly certain they did play on the unit that ws returned a couple of weeks ago).
The display just says LOAD but does not attempt to play the CD.

Is anyone else having similar problems ?

RE: sc-2000 region 2 disney problem disks

I`m certain I am not the only person having problems with R2 Disney DVD`s (currently running V2.08 Firmware) as I believed this was a long standing problem.
Let`s get those replies in so Nelley can address the problem.

I have also found a couple of my Audio CD`s do not play (the machine just sits there saying loading) - Has anyone one else experienced similar problems ?

RE: sc-2000 region 2 disney problem disks

I can not play my R2 Disney DVD of "The Sword in the Stone".

RE: If Aiwa 370 is not available, should I buy a Scan (or clone)?

"No problem disks" - try playing a R2 Disney DVD !

Otherwise the Scan is a great machine !!
Multiregion
VCR friendly
Converts NTSC to PAL for viewing or tapeing
MP3
Great audio sound
Good picture quality
Firmware upgradeable
It`s black (NOT silver - so it matches my TV and Hi-Fi etc)

Scan SC-2000 - New V2.11 F/W. Does it fix the R2 Disney DVD problem as well as the `blue shadowing`

Does V211 fix the R2 Disney DVD problem as well as the `blue shadowing` ?
Do we now have a "VCR friendly" version of V2.11 ?
If the Long MP3 Filename version of F/W is avialable next week, will all of theses fixes be incorporated into that realease ?

Scan SC-2000 - Suggestion for F/W upgrade: `Muting Audio Output when fastforwarding Audio CD`s`

Would it be possible to consider this as a F/W upgrade.
Obviously standalone CD players mute the Audio Output when the CD is being fastforwarded.

RE: £200-WHAT DVD PLAYER

Go for one that plays MP3 - I find this to be an invaluable feature !

PS
I have a Scan SC-2000

RE: Scan SC-2000 DVD Player - When can we expect a fix for the

I have the Disney DVD "The Sword in ths Stone". It played perfectly well until I swapped out my player last Friday - the new unit with V2.08 firmware has terrible blocking problems on the screen when attempting to play the DVD in question.

Scan SC-2000 DVD Player - Suggestion for F/W Change to enable front panel lockout

Currently, the Scan SC-2000 machine only allows you to lock the front panel button when the machine it switched on; As soon as you switch to standby this function is disabled - However, it is when the unit is in Standby and I have gone out to the pub that I want to be able to lock the front panel and make it CHILD TAMPER PROOF !

Scan SC-2000 DVD Player - When can we expect a fix for the "Not playing R2 Disney DVD`s" problem ?

The heading says it all !
This appears to be long standing problem; From this discusion forum I gather it was introduced with V2.04 Firmware.
I really would like to be able to play my R2 Disney DVDs !
