RE: Lecson 900 DVD MP3 Playback. - How to?

Was there any resolution to this?

I`ve tried a test burn of a couple of MP3 files. They play OK on my PC but I get no sound at all from the Lecson. The screen display shows that it is playing an MP3 disk, it also shows the number of tracks, and the current track info (length and elapsed), but there is no audio output either to the TV or the amp.

As my last problem with the Lecson was a configuration problem (Audio playback with ANALOG 6 CH selected), it wouldn`t surprise me if I have mucked something up.

Any ideas?

TIA

RE: Lecson and CD playback

OK, hate to answer my own message but I found it - it wasn`t the 3D virtual surround (that was off) but it was that I had ANALOG 6 CH output selected. I wanted this so that I could output the Speach and Sub to my main amp and get a cleaner/clearer sound.

But with an Audio CD it gave this effect. Switching back to ANALOG 2 CH sorted it out. The Audio is not perfect, but it is perfectly adequate.

Lecson and CD playback

Anyone else having problems with audio CD playback?

I have the left and right front audio outputs linked to my amp and speakers.

I`ve tried several CD`s (standard bought audio CD`s) and the audio sounds like it has been sent through a Wurlitzer. The volume goes louder and softer (and not in both speakers at the same time - quite nauseous!).

I haven`t tried MP3 yet - I`ll give that a go tomorrow.

I know the reviews said that the sound was not up to that of a dedicated player, but I was expecting a lack of depth or clarity - I`m not the audiophile I used to be so I didn`t mind. But this is not listenable.

I`m going to give the Debenhams Help Line a call. but if it is anything like most of the hell-lines I`ve come across in the past ....

If anyone has any ideas, suggestions.

Thanks,
