SYMPTOMS
========
When you use the Pioneer Corporation Multi-Disk CD-ROM drive model numbers
DRM-6OO, DRM-600A, DRM-602x, and DRM-604x with more than one of the composer CDs
inserted in the device, the system will not be able to find the CDs, except the
number 5 CD, and you may receive the error message:
Please place the correct disk in the drive.
RESOLUTION
==========
To correct the problem, verify the following lines are present in the specified
.INI files.
NOTE: Updates can be made by opening the files in a text editor such as Notepad.
SYSTEM.INI
----------
[MCI]
CDAudio0=mcicda.drv 0
CDAudio1=mcicda.drv 1
CDAudio2=mcicda.drv 2
CDAudio3=mcicda.drv 3
CDAudio4=mcicda.drv 4
CDAudio5=mcicda.drv 5
CONTROL.INI
-----------
[Userinstallable.drivers]
CDAudio0=mcicda.drv 0
CDAudio1=mcicda.drv 1
CDAudio2=mcicda.drv 2
CDAudio3=mcicda.drv 3
CDAudio4=mcicda.drv 4
CDAudio5=mcicda.drv 5
MPLAYER.INI
-----------
[Devices]
CDAudio0=17, Disk 1
CDAudio1=17, Disk 2
CDAudio2=17, Disk 3
CDAudio3=17, Disk 4
CDAudio4=17, Disk 5
CDAudio5=17, Disk 6
In addition, remove the following lines from the specified .INI files.
NOTE: Updates can be made by opening the files in a text editor such as Notepad.
SYSTEM.INI
----------
[MCI]
CDAudio=mcicda.drv
CONTROL.INI
-----------
[Userinstallable.drivers]
CDAudio=mcicda.drv
MPLAYER.INI
-----------
[Devices]
CDAudio=17, CD Audio
IMPORTANT: There are two versions of MPLAYER.EXE, and the newer version modifies
MPLAYER.INI and removes any of the new CD Audio information. As a result, you
must use the older version of MPLAYER.EXE with the Pioneer Multi-Disk CD-ROM
drives listed at the top of this article.
To determine which version of MPLAYER.EXE you have, compare the file size:
- OLD MPLAYER.EXE size is 33,312
- NEW MPLAYER.EXE size is 117,536
Video for Windows, version 1.1e includes the NEWER version of MPLAYER.EXE.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The error is caused by the default settings established by the Pioneer
installation software.
Do not use Control Panel to reconfigure the [MCI]CD Audio section. Control Panel
will undo all of the above changes.
