Making Cd's

[Daniel306]

Just tried to make a Cd for use with a standard radio, it did not work. anyone got a guide on how to do it?

[Dum-Dum]

Erm I assume you have done it as MP3 files on the CD. This wont work in a standard radio as it cant read the MP3 encription. You need to convert them to WAV files and then put them on.

Something like that anyway.

Get a tape deck, no compatibility issues and it sounds better

[Daniel306]

I dont know what i did, i just used windows media player to make it... i have no idea really

Make sure you select 'audio cd' or something like that, anything but mp3/data cd. 
And i cant remember if standard stereos can play cd-rw's or not. 

[cully]

some cd players won't read data from CDr discs as they are writen different to std bought music discs

Those ones are really quite rare tho.

I think I've encountered like one or two ever, and they were super mega old crappy things - that was ten years ago as well.

Hahahaha.......just buy a proper cd player, can mp3 or wma loads of cds on one disc then

Old. If only because my first CD burner was a caddy drive, SCSI, and only burnt at 1x speed.
Copying CD's in "real time"
And I remember MP2 files...

Don't use windows media player to burn CD's. It compresses the hell out the files and they sound crap. Use a burning software like Nero. You can usually get it on a Free trial.

There was an MP1 as well before that
I had one of those cards for a while in an A3000

For MP3's I still use my empeg car player.

The interface is still fantastic as is the audio. Simple text > fancy graphics every time.
If it weren't for the empeg there possibly wouldn't have been an iPod.

Way off topic now.
