I was about to agree with that! However I just tried a BASIC program that Jeffrey Lee wrote which also uses CD_ReadAudio. This works for my Iyonix! So I've gone back to my previous suspicion. That one of the values I'm giving the swi isn't one it can accept. In partiular, at present I'm wondering if I'm asking for chunks that are too large for the Iyonix + drive. At present my program asks for chunks 5 sec + 1 frame long. This is fine on my ARMiniX, but maybe it isn't for the Iyonix. I'll do some more experiments. > I guess the IYONIX CDFSSoftATAPI uses the "ReadAudio" command, and your > Sony drive only supports the MMC compatible "Read CD" command.

I've used CDBurn successfully on the drives in the past. I can't recall the settings I used, but I'll check. Is the 'card = 3' value an indicator of such problems? I'm wondering how the programmer can tell without simply trying the CD_ swis and seeing if they fail. FWIW I've also used cdparanoia on both Iyonix drives in the past and that worked OK as well.
