Hello once more,

It appears that all the discs I mentioned in my previous post do display text in another player.

So it seems that the DAV-SC8 has some limitation in its CD Text support. There are apparently two different formats in use, and only one is supported here.

What I can't understand is why Sony's Austrian plant produces both formats in alternance, and why the same brand is making players that only support one of them!

All the best,
Antoine
