If anyones got one, what do they think?

i have got an S224

i have found that halfway through a region 2 disc (Not tried any other types yet) that there is a slight pause for a afraction of a second, does anyone have the same problem? is this where the laser is moving back to the start to read the other layer?

anyone able to help?

Yes it is most likely to be the layer change :)

cheers for the speedy reply

can this problem with the layer switching be overcome?

do you know of any other limitations?

Also i played some mp3s on a recordable disc, 1 does the player read the file names or read the tag on the mp3 file? 2 can i make the player read whole name of the file?

I bought one for a friend at Xmas and got it for £99.99 at Currys. Easily hackable and nice looking interface. Highly recommended for the price and it looks very stylish too, Didnt have a chance to play around with the MP3 though.
