I'm not sure about before the firmware update, but the SuperDrive in my G4 867 with latest firmware will not read some audio CDs. Two so far. I put them in, the CD spins around for a while, then ejects. Anyone know why this might be? For what it's worth, the two CDs in question are Moss Elixir from Robyn Hitchcock and Murder Ballads from Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds.

Thanks.
 
Yes, as well as my roommate's old beige G3. It's only in my SuperDrive, as well as the SuperDrive in his new Powerbook.
 
Thanks, but I have this update. I have been wondering if the problem is the firmware update itself. I'm not sure if I have played these CDs in there before. It is very possible they did work.

Murder Ballads (Mute) works great here with updated Superdrive on a iMac G4
like all other CDs

Hmmm. Well this is the US release on Mute/Reprise. Where is yours from? Also, my SuperDrive says DVR-103, Revision 1.90. What does yours say?

Oh, very odd. Now Murder Ballads works. Weird. I'm ripping it before I have any problems. :) I wonder what the problem was before.
 
Hi

Oh my murder Cd seems to be an european release (Made in Holland)
I've got the DVR-104 with A227 firmware
Before I updated the firmware of the DVD-RW the iMac crashed on copyprotected
audios but now the work and rip well ;-))
 
Interesting. Robyn Hitchcock still won't work in the Mac, though. Maybe I'll try a European release. ;)
