rtrm01 Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 ok, i think i have this down, but sometimes i just need it in plain english i need to finalise cd to play in car nero 9 does? does not finalise? when making mp3 jukebox? i assume not because the thing wont play in deck used ultra iso to make image i am certain ultra iso can finalise cd, does it? how to set it? don't know i read that this program (which so far seems like a sweet program and definately in the must have category) can finalize a disk, so after playing with it a bit and searching forums, i gather that this program automatically finalizes a disc so am i correct that i take an image file .nrg or .iso or whatever, use this program to burn to disc end result is a finalized disc with many many more mp3 files on it than just doing the traditional make a cd in nero 9 right? I am sure this has been posted and you can redirect me but thank you for explaining this and answering me. sometimes the thing is obvious, everyone knows it but it is not explicitely said in just that way thanks for the help
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 Are you sure your 'deck' actually supports MP3 data discs?
rtrm01 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) Are you sure your 'deck' actually supports MP3 data discs? yup, kenwood, mp3 plug on front ... and thanks for replying by the way !! yeah, my friends, seem to just throw some mp3s on a disk and into the car it goes, and plays fine i do that and i cant read it, etc etc, used nero 6 ultra before i just wanna get more than 12 or so songs on a disc to play in car in addition to my mp3 player, i like the cd's too if you have a suggestion let me know, i will try any software, i doubt there is some that i can't find and get. god love the torrents so if you could do it the easiest, and best and fastest, what program would you use i currently have ultra iso premium, nero 9, this program, and a few others i can't remember, i have so many i can't keep tract of them, problem is i can't have them all in stalled at the same time, so i only use a couple, until i find the one, and then i will just use that, i try to avoid using multiple programs just to do some things simple ...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 Add your mp3 folders/files into Build mode and just burn. ImgBurn always finalises the disc.
rtrm01 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Posted April 3, 2009 Add your mp3 folders/files into Build mode and just burn. ImgBurn always finalises the disc. and then i just pull it out, and toss it into my deck and presto, a playable cd right?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 yup. You might want to make sure the 'File System' option is set to 'ISO9660 + Joliet' as that'll probably be what your player wants.
rtrm01 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Posted April 3, 2009 yup. You might want to make sure the 'File System' option is set to 'ISO9660 + Joliet' as that'll probably be what your player wants. very good then... i am off to work (another fit full night sleep in my trusty office chair ugh) and i will try them on my way, i did one with the "+joliet" and the other with just the iso 996 or whatever. either way, thanks for the help, it was fast and accurate!
rtrm01 Posted April 15, 2009 Author Posted April 15, 2009 yup.

Shamus_McFartfinger Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 You might want to restrict ImgBurn to ISO9660 only. Alot of players only recognize files in the old 8.3 format. (8 letters followed by the .mp3 extension such as rtrm01.mp3 or mysong.mp3 or somesong.mp3 or whatever)

(8 letters followed by the .mp3 extension such as rtrm01.mp3 or mysong.mp3 or somesong.mp3 or whatever) wow you guys are awesome here, more responsive of a forum than most any other i have attempted to use. BIG FAT THANK YOU FOR THAT ok, so to make sure i understand you, do it again, make sure it's on the iso9660 format, and rename the files to something exactly 8 letters or 8 letters or less? so would the length of the file name make it not play? wow, so does this program do this for you, like convert it or is that done manually (any suggestions?) - i am going to get this thing done one way or the other LOL
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 You don't need to rename anything, the program just limits the names in the file system to 8.3 characters. I'd be amazed if ISO9660 works when ISO9660+Joliet didn't. Are you really really really sure your player supports MP3 discs?! Do you have a manual for it? They normally say how the discs need to be burnt for them to be compatible (mine does anyway).
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 As Lightspeed has said above, you don't need to rename anything. ImgBurn will truncate the files automatically when using ISO9660 only. If this doesn't fix the problem then I don't know what will.
Old Newbie Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 My standalone CD player is 1987 vintage. Its manual doesn't address self-burned CDs at all. Is it probably too old to use ISO9660+Joliet with the options to allow longer titles, etc ? Is mp3 then the only appropriate format for saving audio files , or will WAV or some other work with the old dinosaur? (I meant the CD player, not myself!)
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Please don't hijack threads. If you need help, you're better off starting your own. 1987? I don't remember seeing any mp3s floating about 22 years ago so it's doubtful your player would recognise them. You'll need to convert them to wav files and burn them or do it the easy way and use Burrrn which can be found here: http://www.burrrn.net/
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Or keeping it within the ImgBurn family, go and read the 'Audio CD' guide in the Guides forum. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=5555
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Uh-oh. I've upset the boss fella. Looks like no christmas card for me again this year. I'd still go with Burrrn if your files are in mp3 format.
Old Newbie Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 I apologize, ya'll. I thought I was saving you hassle by asking where the older stuff was being dicussed. You're kind to respond anyway. Thanks for your help. I can save my Audacity files in one of many formats - I'll do wav. That should work following your guide to CD burning that I did at least have the consideration to read before I searched your forum. No more hijacking for me! (Do I get a Christmas card now? Seriously, thanks all.
spinningwheel Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Do I get a Christmas card now? Nope...you both made the shit list this year.....
