Hiker99 Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 I've recently discovered that Wav files I've created (from mp3's using Cdex) and burned onto CD's, won't play on my HiFi. I've only had this problem since ditching Nero and taking up ImgBurn (and, of course, keeping Windows XP up to date). Can anyone give me advice on perhaps altering my settings prior to burning or sorting this? The HiFi CD is a Denon capable of playing copied CD's & Wavs and has not given me any problems up until now. I have the same problem with my brothers CD too so It's looking like a softare prob, but I'm no expert here. Any advice gratefully received Hiker99
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Did you burn the WAVs as per the Audio CD guide in the Guides forum? If not, I expect that's why you're having problems.

Oops, should have seen that .I'll have a read........ ........Right. Hmm. So I write all the audio stuff as an image. When ever I've burned before (Nero and other progs) I've just done it as files. Explains why that thru me for a second there. Right, up to speed now I think. Many thanks. Hiker99 Edited January 4, 2009 by Hiker99
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 You've been burning them as files having selected the 'profile' or whatever to build an Audio CD. ImgBurn doesn't have any option like that (at the moment) and the only way to do it currently is via what's known as a 'cue sheet'.
steptoe Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Burn them using the 'Tools/Create CD Cue' file option, once your CUE file is created, choose the 'write' option and select it and you'll have no problems at all with very compatble audio CD's that I can burn at x16 without any issues at all Once its burnt it will auto-delete the cue track and ASK if you want to delete the MP3's it created the audio CD from Nero just didn't like burning at x16 and frequently ended up with skipping tracks, another reason why Nero is no longer installed on my system If you do insist on still using Nero, go find a copy of either Nero 6 or Nero 7. A lot of people still use Nero 6 for a reason ... it works
