I've been trying to burn a CD using the Adaptec Easy CD Creater that is on my laptop. If I select create an Audio CD it doesn't allow me to burn much more music than a typical store-bought audio CD. If I simply burn the files onto the CD as one would normally copy files, the playback isn't continuous. I can't just load the CD and have it play from song 1 to 100+ without stopping after each track. What am I doing wrong? Help please!

 

Burn it as a data Cd

 

You're burning the CD as an "Audio CD", which means the best you'll get out of it is 74 minutes of playback time. I assume what you are TRYING to do is burn an MP3 CD...for that, you burn it as if it were a data CD. I can't imagine why it's stopping after each song, unless the CD is getting hosed during writing...can you play each song on the CD when they're written as data?

 

Yes, they will play from the CD but stop after each song. I should clarify, I haven't tried this on an MP3 compatible head unit or player, only using Windows Media Player. Perhaps that is the problem? The CD was made as if it was a data CD.

 

Yes, it should work fine now on your MP3 player.

 

They're is probably a way to go in media player and File, then select open and then navigate your way to your cd drive and the highlight all the songs and then it should work. If your doing this on a computer why are you taking the time to even put them on a cd? You could just play them off the hard drive.

MP3 is relatively new to me so i'm kind of experimenting at this time. My objective was to clear off my hard drive of the "extra" files.

 

Ah, I get it now...I thought you were using an MP3 player for the car...those should play a data CD from beginning to end. With Media Player, you need to choose/highlight all of the songs you want to play and/or drag-and-drop them onto the playlist...otherwise, it only plays the first.
