Deckhand Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 I have those little 156MB cd's that my sony mavica uses... and I was wondering if its possible to burn stuff to them with a regular CD Burner? I tried burning some data to the mini disc, but I couldn't see anything when I explored it from 'My Computer'. Any suggestions?

Jon Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 I'm guessing u mean 8cm cds..? Should be fine, I burn to creditcard cd's quite often on a normal liteon writer. Just make sure the writer is horizontal or it may go a little mental.. !

sukamusiru Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 well, you won't see anything in explorer if they're blank.. i dunno, my pc wouldn't recognize they existed in a drive until i bought this little "converter," it's just a circle of plastic that the mini snaps into to hold it up the level of a normal cd.. after that it recognized the mini, and i can use them to burn or read or whatever now.. without the "converter," it's just weird.. 156 mb? or 185? :blink: :happy: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/68634-burning-to-mini-cds/#findComment-716435 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenshin Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 maybe he's placing the "sony mavica" burnt cds in... dunno wat a mavica is might be a digicam?... anyway might be recording in a non windows recognised format... BUT to answer ur question... like other ppl stated... YES normal cdr/rw can read and write to those things...

sukamusiru Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 and I was wondering if its possible to burn stuff to them with a regular CD Burner? to burn stuff TO them with a regular cd burner.. hence, they're blank first.. so they'd either say "insert cd" or show nothing..
