What's New 04/15/00
DAT2WAV
With the release of DAT2WAV 1.1, we added a number of new things:
- more support for both Archive/Conner/Seagate and Sony drives
- new support for reading 32KHz LP mode tapes
- improved start of tape detection
We are now ready to have the first beta trial of WAV2DAT. Since the code is preliminary, we are
not going to make this a widely available beta test. Please contact us
if you are interested in participating
DAT FAQ
We've produced a new web page containing a lot of info on DAT. Included in the FAQ are:
- a much better list of drives and firmware that will and won't work
- lots of info on doing the firmware upgrade, including pictures and chip part numbers
- a more reliable link to download the firmware
- lots of links to other resources
CD+G Project Update
There has been quite a lot of work done on the CD+G project. The source code is now maintained
on a public CVS system so that everyone can always have access to the latest
revision. The additions to the code include:
- routines to create CD+G packs
- more routines to do Reed Solomon codes
- new interleave/deinterleave routines
- WinAmp plug-in work started
- Visual Basic code for basic gui
CD+G FAQ
We've produced a new web page containing a lot of info about CD+G
It includes an updated list of drives supporting CD+G, as well as a lot
more links to net resources.
CDGPlay
After a lot of messages from people begging us to update CDGPlay, we have made a number of updates to
the software including:
- a new 2x size display mode instead
of the little picture in the top left corner of the screen
- more drives supported such as Yamaha, HP, and Sony (but only to display the graphics as these fine companies
have chosen to not support CD+G data extraction while the music is playing)
