Author Topic: CP500 Easter Eggs Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 03-06-2003 12:11 AM                    Ding ding ding...right! It's because I yanked the 222 SR/A card with its pretend SR and put in a pair of Cat.350's (and daughterboard) which happened to be laying around. The 350's are SR only (normally one would use 300's which are dual mode) and the CP-500 is smart enough to know. The 222 card is kept handy against the rare day I come across an "A" track.  |  IP: Logged Mike Olpin Chop Chop!

I had a friend of mine try this, and it only put the CP500 into bypass mode.  |  IP: Logged Chad Calpito Film Handler Posts: 23 From: San Diego, CA, USA Registered: Jan 2003 posted 03-06-2003 07:21 PM                     Thanks for the information Brad. I didn't even know there were games associated with the Dolby CP550. I'll have to check it out.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 03-06-2003 07:35 PM                    Truly, this will go down as one of F-T's shining moments...getting this heretofore secret info out to the masses to enjoy.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.

I am sure this has been covered in the Film Handlers Forum. Perhaps someone with a better memory than I, can guide me to the appropriate post. Thank you.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

Dolby CP65 / SR Advise needed, Cat. 222 or 350?  |  IP: Logged Rick Long Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 759 From: Toronto, Ontario, Canada Registered: Nov 1999 posted 03-06-2003 11:14 PM                     Thank you, Daryl.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.

I probably remembered the order backwards or just missed some crucial step.  |  IP: Logged Patrick de Groot Expert Film Handler Posts: 161 From: Sprang-Capelle, Netherlands Registered: Apr 2001 posted 03-10-2003 04:57 PM                     and the final safe combination where the games ar kept is....... ?  |  IP: Logged Mike Olpin Chop Chop!
