In this instance, you may well have had success. If you are simply recording direct onto a CD, it should have worked as I mentioned in the previous message.

For recording in DAISY format, standard CD-R or CD-RW discs will work absolutely fine but, if you want to record direct on to a disc in digital audio format (i.e. .CDA format) that can then be taken to be played on a standard CD player, the discs must be of the correct audio format in the first place. Essentially, if you bung in a blank data CD, the PTR2 will default automatically to recording in DAISY format. If you insert a blank digital audio CD, PTR2 will recognise the difference and will record in .CDA format.

As far as I no, ptr2 don't allow recording of digital audio format on normal data disks, wich is preserved for daisy recording. Are you saying its not true?

Hi, thank you so much, this do help indeed. So how did you got hold of those? I mean did you new what to look for when you bought it? Its a pity the ptr2 don't except digital audio format on a data disk, but I guess that these cd's also have advantages, as they should play much smoover on older cd players.

Hi Aidan,
I got my son to look over the audio discs that I have in the house and there doesn't appear to be a logo that would distinguish them as being specifically the kind of discs you are talking about.
The discs are Phillips discs and the text on the disc just says "CD-R Audio". On another section of the disc in roughly a square area it then says "Compact disc digital audio". Finally, in another area, with black background and white writing, it says "Recordable".
I don't have the original box that they came in so can't check it for possible logos.
Hope this helps.
Jamie

Ok, for those who no and use ptr2, I have an idea a little bit what to look for when it comes to music cd's, as they say, it must be a cd that is intended for primery use in a cd recorder or have an audio logo or something. The examples plextalk give on their site and the help I got in their emails didn't help me enough in this matter, could anyone give me more of a clear idea what to look for? What must be rittin on the packaging of such cd's? Ptr2 won't except recording of music cd format (digital audio) on a normal data cd, and I need to no what to look for in order to find the correct type of disk. I no that amazon also sold some of them, but that won't help me as i'm not in the US. Any ideas?
