I don't think mine recorded. I think it just played. But I don't know what all those extra buttons were.

Thanks Peter for your explanation. Is the PTX still a supported product? Would I contact Plexter.com to get one? Since my PTR1 is having some problems and since I haven't found where I can have it fixed, I think I should see about the PTX. Many sincere Thanks!

Hi Peter, I have the TTR1 and have never heard of the PTX1. Please will you explain what it is and how it compares to the PTR1? Thank you very much! Vicky -----Original Message----- From: peter wilkins Sent: Sunday, January 15, 2017 5:29 AM To: Plextalk User Discussion List Subject: Re: [Plextalk] PTN1 NOT WORKING Hello Wendy. Good to hear from you. My wife's PTN1 only plays CD's, so it cannot be used for anything else. Its position in her listening system is going to be taken up by a PTX1, which plays CD's, S D cards, and memory sticks. She has had the PTX1 for some time, but has hardly used it, so it will now come into its own. Keep well.

I have one of those that you slide the cd in. For something that just plays cds, it has a lot of buttons on it. It was given to us, and the person said it was a Plextor.

Hi Peter I have exactly the same problem with my PTR1. I wrote to this list some while ago, and various suggestions were made, none of which worked. I gather this is a discontinued line now, and I wonder if this problem occurred on many machines. I can still play and record on a CF card, so I am not binning mine yet. Wendy -----Original Message----- From: Plextalk [mailto:plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of peter wilkins Sent: 14 January 2017 14:51 To: Plextalk Discussion Subject: [Plextalk] PTN1 NOT WORKING My wife's Plextalk PTN1 has stopped working. When any kind of disc is inserted, it plays the tune for a while, then says improper or damaged disc, and then ejects the disc. I have tried all the re-initialisation procedures I can think of, and even removed the battery, but I am still getting the same results. Is it time to bin it?

Thanks Marc for your prompt response. I have a CD cleaning disc, which I put into the machine, but it has not helped. It looks as though this machine will go to the great talking book library in the sky. My wife has a PTX1, and two PTR2 machines, so we will move some machines around so there is one to replace the one that has broken. Best wishes, Peter
