The idea of taking a DVD int the store is a good one. It would certainly
eliminate the guesswork.

I see that you are pretty down on factory players but I for one am just the
opposite. I find factory players to be easier to operate without all the
blinking lights, flashing teensy little buttons and remote controls that
hide behind flip out faceplates that you can remove. When I am driving, I
don't want to have to look for that itty bitty button that is somehwere our
of reach or out of sight. I want it to be in an easy location that I can
find by the braille method. I like quality sound but am certainly no
audiophile.

One really nice otion on my my Libby is the controls on the steering wheel.
Once I figured out all the things they will do I really like not having to
take my eyes off traffic to change things.

I did this when I bought a boom box some years ago and I walked out with the
one that I knew I wanted (a Sony by the way). That was before
burn-your-owns. Their staff was pretty sick of Wall Of Voodoo (which has a
lot of different sounds within) when I was done. I was amazed at how crappy
most of them sounded, tinny with no depth.

Now I would indeed burn my own the way I would burn them, looking at both
the sound and how the cd plays.

Did find a cheap replacement on EBAY. I am going to try and fish the thing
out first. It is just a regular burned cd with no labels on it. Others I
have made are ok and work fine. Did burn this one with a new dvd
playerburner on my computer. Others were made with the cd drive.
I'll let you knwo what happens.
