RE: poor mp3 quality/not all songs burn



Can you tell me what version of Windows (2000 xp, vista, etc), and what
version of WMP you're using (9, 10, 11)?

Also are you intending to burn as an Audio CD or as a Data CD? If it's an
Audio CD, then you're not going to be able to fit a lot of tracks. On
average you'll get 18 to 20 before the disc is full. When you look at the
disc in Explorer, you'll see "Track01.CDA" etc.

If you're using 192kbps MP3s and burning them as a data disc, you'll get
roughly 125 to 130 tracks on a disc before it's full. Also if it's a data
disc you should be able to re-insert that disc into the computer and then
navigate to it in Explorer and see a WPL playlist along with a Music folder
that contains Artist folders which each contain Album folders if you're using
a recent version of WMP, if it's an older version you'll see a list of MP3
songs and the WPL playlist. Open the WPL playlist in Notepad and you should
see all the tracks on the disc listed in that WPL.

You should also be able to play that burned CD of MP3s on your computer. If
the files are intact for playback from your hard drive on your computer, they
should be intact for playback off the CD on your computer. There is no magic
"error correction" code for ripped content during playback.

well actually i changed the bitrate to as high as it will go; 192 i believe.
media size... do you mean size as in bites? if so, i burn roughly 650 MB onto
a disc. it says i can go up to 702 MB even though it is only a 700MB cd, and
there must be room for the text (song name, artist, etc).

i think that there is an auto correct-function on windows media player and
just about every other media player that takes out the scratches, i am
assuming, but when they are burned it takes the source file, not the file as
it sounds on the player itself, and burns that (un corrected). this is just
a hypothesis, however...

Hi,

Can you provide a little bit more information for us? I'm assuming the
default setting of "copy" rather than transcode to a lower bitrate, so can
you tell me the bitrate of the content that you're burning? Also, what is
the media size that you're burning to?

I have tried multiple times to burn playlists on wmp. First of all, all the
songs that i want to burn act as though they are going to be burned on one
disc(all say they are complete), but when i play the mp3 cd, there are
roughly 30 songs less than i intended. also, the songs that i burn do not
skip when played on the computer, but when burned onto the mp3 cd, they
skip... even to the point of my cd player skipping the song altogether. My
cd player wont even recognize one of my cds because it is so horribly
'skippy.' any help would be greatly appreciated.
