Post by xxjustinukxx » Fri Mar 03, 2006 1:05 pm

Hello once again to you all!

Ive had a bif of a cufuffle with my Digital Video Cartridge and my CDI player (but if you read my other post you'll be able to see that!)

I noticed that when i open the CD tray, there's a sticer there which says something along the lines of "Mini DV Cartridge Option"

what does that mean?

im just curious!

Justin :?

As you have read there are two types of digital video cartridges. You state you have a 210/45, right? That one uses a small cartridge model. The sticker just states the option to insert a small DVC into the player, so you'll be able to play FMV titles. You don't have to, hence the 'option' (the player also works without).

Thanks bas!

So, am i right in thinking that that option is there to play the movies only? because, as i was saying "Mad Dog McCree" works fine on my player (without a DVC), so im assuming the other DV games will work too?

sorry if it seems like im asking stupid questions, i just want to know if im going to need to buy another DV cart now.

thanks!

Justin :D

When Mad Dog is working OK, you'll find no problems with any other DV games and/or movies. No need in buying another cartridge.
