burning cd

i hope this message is ok in the chit/chat forum....when i burn songs w/ wmp from my hard drive, it only lists the songs as track 1, track 2 when i play the cd. is there a way to get the song info on the cd, or is there a freeware cd burning program that does this (better)?

nope.. there is no track info burned on any CD

The track info you see on any CD is DL'ed from online databases by reading an ID code burned on the disk and doing a lookup.

In other words - a bunch of random songs won't show up in the DB, so you get no track information. But duplicate a CD and the track information corresponds with the information in the DB so it displays the track names.

I have not done this for a while but using Nero or Roxio you could name the individual tracks. And on a PC those track names would appear. I quit doing it because it took a lot of manual editing and was not used on anything except the PC. And then it would only show up if winamp was used to play the songs. On the plus side those programs did create the lables and covers with the song names. Only I quit making covers and I also found the sticky lables would get stuck in the car CD player.

Good luck!

Yep I had a bunch of stuck labels too.

First solution was the "plastic" labels, clear or metallic that wouldn't seperate like the paper ones.

Second solution (current and best) was the Epson R200 ($70.00 at Sam's club a year ago) and print right on the disk.

Try lightscribe, benots4. It's a way of printing directly on the CD or DVD.

You just need to set the ID3 tags if MP3. I'm pretty sure other formats support tagging as well. Simply name the files for WAV.

If you did a straight data burn then probably no info will be pulled over.

If the "tags" are set and the disk is burned as a proper WMA or MP3 burn, then it should display the info. :approve:

This also assumes your player is capable of reading those "tags." :rolling:
