OK now, this is probably a really stupid question, and I'll probably get flamed for it. :D But how do you make the TG50 play Atrac3 files? I've already downloaded the update to audioplayer to make it compatible, but when I import them to my MSAudio directory they are not available to be played.
If anybody knows what I'm doing wrong, please let me know.

PS. I know that most people say to use MP3, and I usually do anyway, but I'm just curious to see how the Atrac3 format sounds in relation.

You need Magic Gate MS in order to play ack Atrac3 format

yes magicgate is a must, the purples wont work. even though the pro mem sticks are magic gate, they dont at this time support atrac3 playback. you have to have the white magicgate sticks. works fine with those i encode at 105kbs, and you can get 2 hours or so on a 128 stick.

OOOOhhhhh, Ok. Yeah, I re-checked the info and sure enough, it's printed right there. Guess that's what I get for not reading the manual. :D Thanks guys....
