dogmoss Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) i'm trying to make a mix CD with various artists to give as a gift, and I want to be able to have the cd play in a cd player as well as sync with itunes like a store bought cd would i followed this tutorial and successfully burned a cd, sounds fine and the tracks are in order, but when i play it in windows media player or itunes the songs still show up with no artist info, no track names, and no album art. the only info I have is "track 01, track 02, etc" is there any way I can keep the the song information after burning it to a cd or does it just not work that way??? ive already burned like 5 cds playing around with the .cue settings to see if it would make a difference but i honestly have no idea what im doing wrong and i cant find anything helpful that pertains to my situation ): pic 1: the mp3 files im working withpic 2: settings used to make the .cuepic 3: what the burned cd shows me when i view it pic 4: log (i used mp3tag to make the album and album art the same for all the files in case thats helpful in any way) Edited September 25, 2014 by dogmoss
ianymaty Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 That's how a CDDA (Audio CD) looks in Windows. The files you see are just for refference. The CDText should be though visible on a car player or a regular DVD player that has support for CDText. For WMP there is a plugin that you can use. Search for WMPCDText.
dogmoss Posted September 27, 2014 Author Posted September 27, 2014 hm i guess it just doesnt work the way i was hoping thanks for the helpful reply though, i guess im just going to have to have a cd as well as an mp3 album on a flashdrive or something if i want to have both.
