sony network walkman nw-e400/nw-e500/nw-a600 display screen tutorial by carsncars hi. in this tutorial, i'll show you how to create your own network walkman display screen files using the following two programs: monomation studio: available [here] for free. sonymatome's hel2nwm converter ---> download here <hr noshade size=1>monomation studio allows you to draw your animation within it, but if you'd like, an image-editing software such as adobe photoshop/image ready or jasc animation shop can be handy. this is my first tutorial, so bear with me! if there are any errors i've made, and unclear directions, or if you know a better way of doing it.. tell me! keep in mind that this tutorial was written for windows xp machines. <hr noshade size=1> the walkthru install both programs-- monomation studio installs normally, but hel2nwm is just contained in a .zip file. extract these, and move the 'hel2nwm.exe' file you just extracted to 'c:/documents and settings/xxxx' where 'xxxx' is your windows username. alright. let's start with using monomation studio. most likely, if you're not running a japanese edition of windows, you'll end up with with a whole bunch of question marks. your file menu'll probably look like: ?????(f). you'll have question marks all over the place-- that's okay-- you can go on with the tutorial with those question marks. however, if you would prefer that the japanese characters were displayed properly, download microsoft's applocale [here]. let me explain monomation studio's workspace. if you've used any sort of image editing software before, it'll look very familiar. in the center, you have your canvas. this is where your drawing goes, and where you can play back your animation. since the network walkman's display is only 120x36 pixels in resolution, we will only be using the top-left hand corner of the canvas. if you draw into the other areas, they will be cropped off during the conversion. the toolbox at the left is pretty much self-explanatory. here's a translation of the top toolbar-- the main one you'll be using. <hr noshade size=1> instructions alright. first, copy one of the following images (depending whether you want it vertically oriented or horizontally), and copy it into monomation by pressing ctrl+v on your keyboard. this is your canvas-- this black rectangle is representative of the walkman's screen, so all of your drawing you want to show up on the walkman must remain inside of this box. *see the bottom of the tutorial for instructions on how to use imageready or other programs to create your animation. using the tools in the toolbox at the side, draw your first frame. then, when you're ready to draw your next frame-- clicking the 'next frame' button will create a new frame. you'll see you previous frame still displayed on the canvas. this is called 'onion skinning' and allows you to kind of 'trace' your previous frame. white pixels will light up on the walkman's screen, black pixels won't. so-- keep drawing your frames until you have your full animation, keeping in mind to keep it under 20 frames for file size and because hel2nwm will cut off frames if there are too many. to save your finished animation, go file (or the menu item with (f) after it), and the save (s). save the file under: c:/documents and settings/xxxx, where 'xxxx' is your windows username. you'll see why later. now, to convert the .hel file you've created into sony's .nwm file, we'll use the other program-- hel2nwm. call up a command prompt window (start-->run-->cmd), and check that you are in your 'documents and settings' directory. should look something like: c:\documents and settings\mikey> now, to run hel2nwm on you .hel animation, type: hel2nwm.exe filename.hel, where 'filename' is the name you've saved your animation as. it should look something like this: c\documents and settings\mikey>hel2nwm.exe dspscr.hel note: if you've drawn your animation vertically, type /v at the end. hit enter and it'll convert your animation. now, navigate to c:/documents and settings/xxxx, and you'll find your .nwm file. simply copy that into your walkman's nwwm-scr folder, and you're set! <hr noshade size=1>if you want to know how to use adobe imageready or another image-editing program to create display screens, read on. i'm going to explain this using imageready, but it shouldn't be too different using other programs. it's really pretty simple-- go about creating the animation in imageready, using a 120x36 canvas with only black and white, and keeping it under 20 frames. if you'd like, you can import another animated .gif, crop it, and convert it to black and white. (to convert any image to black-and-white, go to the 'optimized' tab, with the optimization settings configured as follows. you can play with the dithering setting until it looks good. when you're done, in optimized mode, go to frame one of your animation and copy all merged: ctrl+a, ctrl+shift+c. now, go into monomation and paste it in: ctrl+v. click 'next frame', go back into imageready, copy the next frame, paste it into monomation, click next frame, and so forth... and you're done! keep in mind you can only have one additional display screen at once. enjoy! tell me if there's anything i can improve.. my first tutorial. <hr noshade size=1> 2005 carsncars. carsncars <at> gmail <dot> com. carsncars.vze.com. distribute this freely, but please give credit. <hr noshade size=1>

honestly, one of my absolute favorite products for sony at ces 2010 was the sony ericsson xperia x10. it’s a powerful device with a 1ghz qualcomm snapdragon qsd8250 processor, complete with a 4 inch capacitive touch display, 8.1 megapixel camera with led flash and 8gb included microsd removable storage. however, the thing that truly stands out to me with the phone is display. it’s the type you just can’t stop looking at because it’s so lush and at four inches you can see so much. the who experience is pretty fluid 95% of the time, with occasional jitters here and there. still, very impressive for an android 1.6 build. we hope that it has an upgrade path to 2.1 sooner than later. regardless, there is no doubt in my mind that if you pulled this thing out in public it would get some attention. people were all over it at ces. here is a little extra review video showing off a little bit of time scape, media scape, and the dialing interface. we also briefly compare it to the iphone 3g: " />" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"> i have to reiterate the phone felt very natural in my hand, and even holding it up to my head wasn’t absurd. it’s really not that larger than an iphone, but somehow has a larger screen and looks just bloody futuristic. i’ve owned an iphone for quite a long time and i can honestly say this is the first device that makes me want to try something different. designs like these totally blow away what apple is doing right now. and sony ericsson is not the only person doing that now. i think a lot of the ce manufacturers are going to hurt apple in 2010 because they are using advanced functionality such we found in the xperia x10, as it has android, such a striking appearance, and embraces open standards (microsd, mini usb, removable battery). sony ericsson could potentially ignite a turnaround if they continue to offer devices of this caliber. it’s just simply gorgeous. i have a hard time believing many of you will resist this, if you have the opportunity to get it. don’t mind the cord/attachment to the back of the phone in the pics, it was part of the booth. related posts: sony ericsson to reveal android xperia phone on november 3rd phone arena shows off sony ericsson's satio sony ericsson's mighty xperia x10 coming in 2010 - full specs and pics sony ericsson's twist on google android looks stunning michael jackson's thriller costume for the "this is it" tour view the full article

having an issue with my sony klv-bx320 model tv.         i had purchased a sony klv-bx320 in september 2012. in just two years the display has faulted completely. when i contacted the customer service centre they have asked rs.13000/- for the repair which is almost half of the tv cost. the customer service center says there are three possible reasons why a tv display might get faulty which are as follows: 1. current fluctuation 2. power socket issues 3. tv main being on always. all these three reasons are not being done as i use a stabiliser as well as have proper power sockets at home. the tv gets switched off evertytime after use. hence i am just not able to figure out if just two years is the life of a sony tv, then what is the brand assurance that a customer can get. kindly tell me what can be done as paying almost half the price for repair of a two year old tv is totally bad and gives a bad impression on sony products. if required i can give the photoscanned copy of  the bill of the tv purchased along with the warranty voucher   thank you.

i have purchased a sony vaio van ar11s which has windows 7 installed. i want to return the laptop to its purchase state, with all the original sony software installed. i have tried  a recovery via the f10, but to no avail. i presume that who ever installed the windows 7 wiped the hard drive completely. my question is where, if i can, get the original software and operating system. i have noticed that there are a few pieces of hardware not working, ie optical drive release button, not working. i presume these may well be down to the system not having the sony vaio control software installed. i hope that someone can help.     i

well minidisc users, we are seeing time once again pull at the strings of sony or shall i say the bean counters are looking for ways to recoup money. look at this artical and also look at the comments. http://techcrunch.com/2011/07/22/sony-pulls-the-plug-on-8mm-video/ by the comments, this was again another format that the users liked and it performed well as a piece of equipment, does this sound familiar??? i heard that the leaders of sony were not the learned engineers of old time sony but accountants who make decisions by dollar signs and graphs. well, it shows by the decisions that sony has been making to abandon various products. not to mention the huge laptop battery recall. if it seems sony is not in friendly waters, its because they seem to be making some bad decisions. whether abandoning the users of the 8mm video format is a good choice or not is something sony will have to live with. but it seems they are orphaning quite a few products that were in the buyers eye as a useful convenient tool. things have become quiet about the restoration in japan and one might think this announcement may be for sony to rebuild a damaged facility for production of another type of equipment. this makes one wonder if sony is really in as good of shape as a company as they once were. time will tell.... keep those minidiscs spinning, why else are you here?

good morning, my vaio hdd is dead. it has both a hdd and a 1tb ssd. besides the hdd what do i need to buy to get this operational?  when i bought it new in 2013 or 2014 it had windows 8 on it which i upgraded to windows 10 during the “free upgrade window” microsoft had.    i’m trying to determine if i should repair or replace and what the total cost would be to repair. the laptop is in phenomenal condition cosmetically.    besides the hdd what do i need to purchase?  is there a vaio disk that installs all of the sony items on top of windows?  can i just download windows 10 or do i need to buy it?  if everything i need is on the sdd how do i access the partition to reinstall everything?     ive looked around the laptop and apparently my windows key sticker fell off.    your help is truly appreciated!

hi i have a sony vaio laptop (model pcg – 61813m) running windows 7 home that i am trying to repair for my young granddaughter. it was going so slow accessing programmes that it became impossible for her to use. for example, she would click on a programme and it could take 10 minutes or more before it finally ran (that’s if it did run). i tried all sorts of things to fix it but nothing worked. too much too explain here. after saving everything that was important (i used a hiren’s cd to access the hdd) i decided to use vaio recover. it took a long time but it went ok. on one of the re-boots though, it did start check disk and found some entry errors. there were no reports of bad sectors. eventually, it did boot into windows ok. i then did all sorts of things like installing chrome and an anti-virus programme etc. it all went ok. no problem. ran quite good actually. then i started to copy back all the important stuff i had saved. that was ok to start with but after a short while it said, on a black screen, “cannot find operating system”. since then i have not been able to access the hdd. when i press the power button i get a screen saying “start windows normally” or “launch start up repair”. if i opt for the former i get the “starting windows” splash screen with the windows logo but it eventually returns to the options screen. if i opt for “repair” it goes into the all blue vaio rescue screen but goes no further. if i use the “assist” button it says ‘starting windows” (with the animated windows logo) but then says on the next screen “please wait while vaio care rescue is starting” but it goes no further (no matter how long i wait). i have tried the hiren’s cd again (which worked perfectly previously) but now it cannot find the hdd. i have also tried using a windows xp boot up disk (which certainly works ok) but it too fails to find the hdd. i get quite a lot of coded info etc (too much to type here), including an error 2200 code.  i assume from the above that the hdd is physically working ok, but that there are problems with the boot up sectors (or something like that). btw, i removed the hdd. bios reported no hdd. put it back in again. the bios recognised it correctly. can anyone give me any advice – or is it something that is beyond repair? any help appreciated. thank you. sorry it took so long to explain.

i purchased a sony ecm-ms907 stereo microphone some years ago and back then it worked brilliantly, however it went into storage for several years as i didn't do any audio recording (partly due to my minidisc recorder packing up).  now i have a working minidisc recorder again i brought out the old sony mic only to find it's apparently not working, it doesn't even register on the minidisc recordings i try to make.  i plugged the mic into my bose aux socket, still nothing, i plugged the mic into a pc and saw a tiny amount of level in audacity, not enough to be audible though. i took the covers off the mic, all looks like new inside, no dust or loose wires, everything where it should be.  i tried several different aa batteries (including duracel, and a freshly charged eneloop aa), i get the small red battery check when turning the mic on so that should indicate that the battery is fine.  tried the mic in 90 or 120, no joy. i'd really like to be able to make recordings to minidisc again, the md recorder is a sony mz-r500, i've found nothing to indicate that a mic would not work with this model.  when i plug the mic into the line in socket (white) and press record it says line on the display, i have record level set to auto. any advice please?

sony ericsson has finally released the long-awaited android 2.1 (eclair) update for the sony ericsson xperia x10 family (including the x10 mini and mini pro). even though we are on the precipice of android 3.0 (aka gingerbread) coming out, and the current android version is 2.2 (froyo), it is still a welcome addition. xperia x10 phones run on a custom version of android 1.6, and the company has been heavily criticized for not keeping up with competitors who have beat them in providing the latest firmware to users. when choosing an android phone, one of the most important features aside from hardware is its upgrade path, and sony ericsson has been slow to respond. some are also curious as to if the device will ever offically receive firmware above android 2.1 in the future. unfortunately, the update isn’t officially available everywhere yet, but will be available over the next few days and weeks. if you own one of these devices you’ll simply see an update available in your upper status bar. there is also pc software you can use, called pc companion (by sony ericsson), that helps with the backup and update process. however, if you are adventurous the trustworthy chaps at xda developers have figured out how to immediately update the xperia x10 family to 2.1 very easily! if you are more patient and would rather wait for the official roll out in your country, rikard skogberg of se’s product launch blog states, “the update it is now out for the first kits, nordics since yesterday and i?ve also seen that the generic trade kits for russia, singapore, indonesia and many african countries should be up now since earlier today.” he also surprisingly confirmed that the update will not enable “multi touch, 16m colors, and arabic language support”. skogberg continues by mentioning the “upgrade will be done in a phased roll-out which means that different ?kits? gets the update at different times. this to secure quality in all networks and countries. so don?t get paranoid if your phone isn?t updated in the very first days ? it will come!” let us know in the comments when you get the update in your country. here is the list of changes that android 2.1 brings for each phone. i have video by sony ericsson above each list to help explain the upgrade. xperia x10: ? hd video recording with continuous auto-focus for high quality videos ? upgrade of the android platform to android 2.1 ? new back up and restore application, with extended content back up ? 5 homescreens for apps, widgets, shortcuts and folders ? social phonebook which automatically syncs contact pictures from facebook and shows when your friends are online xperia x10 mini and x10 mini pro: ? improved bluetooth functionality with support for sending and receiving pictures, contacts and more ? new backup and restore application with extended content back up ? automatic synchronization of your contact pictures between facebook and your phone book ? improved ways of handling pictures, audio, text and numbers in your messages ? upgrade of the android platform to android platform 2.1 in most markets, your phone will automatically let you know view the full article

if i set a minidisc or other portable to line out, what other problems can i expect feeding that into a common-or-garden sound jack on a mixer or other pro sound equipment? i have a cable with 3.5mm on one end and 6mm on the other (1/4"). both are stereo jacks but the receiving end is defiantly mono. no idea how to fix that. what i do know is that with some combination of adapters that the sound was very iffy and dependent on twiddling the jacks. however even with my nice new direct cable with gold contacts on each end there are still some problems with limiting (and the sink device supposedly has tons of headroom) as i increase the volume beyond about half way round the dial. for the record, for this test i used an nw-hd5, battery fully charged. sounds fine into headphones.

hi everyone out there, i have a little used sony cd-tr808e hi8 camcorder that i bought in 1993 (and several lenses for it). i recorded some 25 cassettes in the nineties that i was going to digitize on my lap top. however, this plan has been sabotaged as the camcorder won't load cassettes anymore. i took it out of storage yesterday, connected it, had it eject the cassette that was in it, put the cassette back and then the cassette lift refused to go down. every six seconds a motor inside starts humming for some nine seconds, stops six seconds, hums nine sconds, etc. tc. but the lift won't go down. can anyone help/advise me? thanks in advance!

hello, i recently acquired a second hand sony vaio pro 13 (svp132a1cw) and almost immediately updated it to windows 10. now while looking through the settings i noticed i could not turn off the keyboard backlight. i googled it and found it could be done through the vaio control centre. to my dismay i couldn't find a way to access it in windows 10. i tried to find something in the bios but there was nothing there (i have not updated my bios from the original). is there anything i can do or is my situation hopeless?

a simple guide to atrac cd players, i'll break them down by generation to generation: note: the recently released d-ejxxx series, most notably d-ej005, will not be included in this guide, as they do not offer any atrac file playback functionality. d-ej005 provides mp3 playback however. first generation d-ne players: flagship model: d-ne1 other models: d-ne9 (others unconfirmed) d-ne1 and d-ne9 first generation of atrac cd players (i believe the d-nes are the first atrac3plus devices). supported bitrates of 132kbps (atrac3), 105kbps (atrac3), 66kbps (atrac3), 64kbps (atrac3plus), and 48kbps (atrac3plus) along with full mp3 support (44khz only), and redbook cd. supports cd-text, id3 tags. nothing fancy soundeq wise, you get digital megabass 1 and digital megabass 2. notes: while undocumented, all first generation models can play back 256kbps atrac3plus files. simpleburner 1.0 only facilitates transfer of atrac3/plus bitrates listed above. seamless or gapless playback of atrac files are not available for these units! d-ne1 boasts battery life of 135 hours (48kbps) when using 2x gumstick batteries and 2x aa via battery pack attachement. certain number of the 2x aa battery cases were recalled for overheating. second generation d-ne players: flagship model: d-ne10 other models: d-ne900, 800 (japan-only model?)500, 300, various s2 models (plus various psyc and liv models). d-ne10, d-ne900, d-ne800 [japan only] second generation of atrac cd players features smaller and lighter players, this partially due to re-designing of the players from the classic puck to a design reminiscient of ufos. these units are the first to incorporate official support for 256kbps atrac3plus files, along with legacy atrac3/plus modes, mp3, and redbook cd support. additionally, the 2nd gen atrac cd players have the ability to play atrac files gaplessly like its md cousin. this, along with player size (high end) and ergonomics, makes this a viable alternative to md players (should one be not easily accessible, or as it was during its release, outclassed md in capacity). also, all second generation units feature parametric equalizer, which allows users to shape the sound output to their preference. this works equally well for all audio files (mp3, atrac3plus, redbook). comes with sonicstage 2.0, which allows for burning atrac3plus cds, mp3 cds, and audio cds. another addition to 2nd generation units is the auto-ranking playback. the unit keeps track of how many times a certain track is played on a cd, and can perform a top-10 countdown of sorts, or shuffle those top 10 tracks. a unique twist on auto dj feature. notes: d-ne900 features a 5 line lcd for navigation, but lacks the backlighting to be useful. likewise, d-ne500 also features lcd and jog-wheel for navigation as well. third generation d-ne players flagship model: d-ne20 other models: d-ne920, 520, 320, etc. (plus various psyc, liv models). d-ne20 and d-ne920 third and current generation of atrac cd players. higher-end models (510 and greater) offers much of the same features as the 2nd generation players, but with digital amp. sound quality isn't dramatically changed by this digital amp, but the omni-present noise associated with other models seems to be less apparent for units with digital amp. also, all of thse units feature the return of digital megabass, now dubbed clearbass. clearbass can be applied in conjunction with the parametric equalizer, a boon to bassheads everywhere. there are three levels of clearbass vs two levels of digital megabass on the first generation of atrac cd players. the lcd navigation has been improved dramatically with the addition of backlight. higher resolution lcd allows for multilingual use, including italian, spanish, and russian out of the box. (d-ne520, 920) notes: sony claims d-ne20 as the smallest and the lightest cd player produced. sony's world tourist model overview the d-ne20 is the 20th cd walkman (aka discman) anniversary model! they also feature completely redesigned remotes. until now, all atrac cd players have been bundled with either non-lcd remotes, or the now discontinued rm-mc33el/k. these units are the first to have the atrac cd logo. until this changes, this guide will refer to all atrac3/plus capable cd players as atrac cd players, and such discs as atrac cds. some of the 3rd generation units (d-ne329sp) and its liv variant comes with a speaker dock. it is unknown at the moment whether or not the dock can accomodate other atrac cd units, though it is unlikely that other units will support the speaker dock. sony has started to offer the d-ne320 and possibly other pcdps along with the puck styled network walkman and accessories in pink. they are brick and mortar items only, as they are not featured on either target.com nor sony style's online store. however, they are featured prominently on endcaps of electronics section. it is unknown whether or not other large brick and mortar chains such as k-mart, wal-mart, sears are offering such similar exclusives. conjecture: while this function has not been enabled in the current sonicstage (3.3), one can easily assume that the d-ne units are certainly capable of playing the new atrac3plus bitrates. however, until this is verified one way or another, we'll go with the standard "time will tell" / "we'll see" answer on this. "4th" generation pcdp models flagship model: d-ne30 (presumed to be at the moment, unreleased) other models: d-ne830, 730 (japan exclusive at the moment), 330/330liv, d-nf430 (includes digital am/fm/tv/weather tuner) (released in the us) pictured:d-ne830, d-ne730. these look to be the "4th" generation of atraccd player released. features include the usual atraccd/mp3/redbook cd playback, digital amp, parametric equalizer, clearbass, etc. additions include a third clearbass level, clearbass 3. the d-ne730 uses the walkman bean pack-in ear-buds whereas the d-ne830 uses the e931 earbuds that are usually included in highend/flagship models. d-ne330 and d-nf430, the lowest end of the 4th generation model, has a claimed output of 15mw+15mw. it is currently unknown if all 4th generation models (x30 series) will support the same. it is available now at your local target (of all places) for $49.99 plus your local sales tax if any. this unit also lacks any software bundles, and poses an interesting question (was connect supposed to be bundled with this unit but as axed at the last minute?). -thanks to pata2001 for the links on these units. remotes not all of the units have a remote port. for instance, some d-ne3xx models lack a remote port, and all d-ne5xx (and d-ne3xx with remote ports, such as some psyc unit and car ready units) units do not work properly with lcd remotes, in that the lcd display displays nothing. of those units that work with lcd units (d-ne1,9,10,900,20,910 amongst others), there are some limitations. rm-mc33el/k works without problems. rm-mc40elk works, but with the jog-scroll replacing group +/- button, you only have the ability to step backwards through a group/directory. the jog scroll function does not work with any of the models. rm-mc53el and rm-mc55elk works with all units. search button function only works with 3rd generation units (d-ne20/910). furthermore, the search button function does not work with any hi-md or other remote capable units. all remote capable units should work fine with non-lcd remote units. tips and hints d-ne series are notoriously finicky about media, but the first gen units aren't as finicky as 2nd or 3rd gen. to achieve maximum compatibility, make sure to burn at 24x or lower speed. also, keep those grimy fingers off the cd surface! when burning mp3 cds with other burning utilities, burn the cd in cd-mode 2 (xa-mode) for slightly faster boot-up/read time associated with initial read. gapless playback of mp3 files are not available for any atrac cd players. hi-md units with mp3 playback is probably your best option for unadulterated "gapless" mp3 playback. if you want your unit to be anything but silver/platnium white or black, and you're unfortunately stuck in the us, then your only option is to import it from japan. missing: more information on the s2 units and the boomboxes are required. added 7/26 - gapless atrac playback, thanks pata. added pictures of flagship models of all three gen. added 7/27 - atrac cd terminology. added 7/30 - digital megabass, clearbass. added 8/5 - d-ne20's small tidbits, including its 20th anniversary status. added 10/29 - brief blurb about "4th gen" items. added 11/06 - target exclusive pink players added added 2/5 - d-ne330 information added. added 5/25 - slight update info on d-ne330liv/430. clearbass stepping 3 added

way back in 1979, i bought a sony radio cassette. it was a brutally heavy rectangular lump of predominantly dark grey plastic. it had fm/mw/lw receiver and was, by modern standards, fairly basic. but it produced great sound, and with the 'wide stereo' switch active it was fantastic. despite endless searches on ebay and other auction sites i've never even seen one like it. i don't remember the model, but i'd definitely know it by sight. is there a picture based archive anywhere that i can search? i've looked before for such an archive, again without success. any help advice would be appreciated.

i have a sony str-de197 receiver. it is in protect mode everytime i turn it on. i disconnected all the speakers and all the cables, and when i turn it on it is still in protect mode. is there anyway to get it out of protect mode, without having to change some part inside. i wouldn't know how to do that. i tried to reset to factory settings but that didn't fix it. i just want to know if this is fixable before i throw it out and buy something else. thanks.

i have about 30 mini dv tapes that were recorded 10-15 years ago on a sony dcr - trv900e camera. i would like to transfer their content on to computer. the camera now does not eject (i was quoted $800 to repair it) - so i cannot use it to do the transfer via firewire as i used to. the starting price for companies that do such transfers seems to be round $12 to $15 per tape. but i see there are lots of old mini dv tape camcorders for sale on the internet for $100 to $200. therefore it would be cheaper for me to buy such a camera & transfer the tapes via firewire. my question is: would transferring a video via a cheaper camera than the one it was originally filmed on, affect the final picture quality? thanks - pablo verdad
