No disk in drive???? on startup

[B!ink]

Click the cancel button a couple times to bypass the message. After MediaCoder opens, use the add track button. After that's open, close the windows. Close the program and rerun it again. If that doesn't get rid of the error message, try revert all settings through file menu.

It seems to happen this way.

Load a stereo audio file, any file.
Revert all settings
Play back the file by click on the play button and it will be in stereo
Select the plugin Disc Player and setup for NTSC MPEG2
Encode
Play back the file by clicking the Mediacoder Play button and it will be mono
Play back the encoded file with another player and it will be mixed down from stereo to mono
Revert all settings and the file loaded into Mediacoder will playback in stereo.

Not sure about other codecs/containers yet

I like how you mixed up this question with another topic you posted.

As far as the disk windows appearing, someone else is experiencing the same problem as well. At one point I had this come up on me too, but lately it hasn't come up at all. The only thing I can suggest is clicking the cancel button a few times in order to load MediaCoder (I know I already suggested this). Can't make the connection for this problem.
