Nothing much to 'know' about MD apart from the quirks of using it as a recording medium. As a playback device it should work like any mp3 player, tape player etc. If you have connected the line-out from the MD to the line-in on your soundcard you should get something. Can you plug headphones into the MD and hear the music? Can you plug a different sound source into your soundcard and get a signal? Are your mixer settings set for hearing an incoming source on your soundcard? Are you trying to use the Digital-Out to the Digital-In on your soundcard or is it a normal analogue-analogue connection. If the former there are different standards so you may need a converter between the MD and the card.
