    Burning Audio CD's


    Good day to all.Maybe someone can help me out here.I have a fair amount of music on my pc,Now the problem I'm getting when trying to burn an album to a blank CD.I have tried using the windows media player and the CD BurnerXP Pro..CDBurnerXP Pro - Free download and software reviews - CNET Download.com .All goes well with the burning but the big bug is only one out of six will play on a CD player.
    I did one for my pal the other day it was a CD of irish jokes,Didn't work so tried another one no joy so he brought it back for me to try and no joy on four cd players.What am I doing wrong is it the discs or the burning software that I'm using,If so what is the best software to achieve this cd burning.
    PS have tried various burners over the month only problems I'm getting.
    Any help please.
    Many Thanks.

    The CDs may have compatibility issues with the drive. Search for a firmware update for your model.
    Drive may be going bad, can you check with another one?
    Are you using verify option in burner software?

    Yea thanks for the reply.
    .Are you using verify option in burner software?
    No Should I,Never thought about that.
    Is that option in the CD BurnerXP Pro?
    Thanks.

    You should, until at least this issue is sorted. Almost all burning software has some such option, check the settings.
    You can also try burning at a slower speed, x8 x16.

    The speed the audio CD's are burned at can be an issue with some Audio CD players.

    I do a lot of Audio CD burning, as I have a recording studio. I also make copies for customers. My audio CD burn speed standard is 8X, however with most SATA CD/DVD burners the lowest burn speed is 16X. I would try burning at the lowest speed of your drive and see if that helps. If you have an older system with PATA (IDE) CD/DVDE burners, 8X is usually available.

    CDBurnerXP will allow setting the burn speed. I don't use, I use Nero BurningROM, but I've looked at CDBurnerXP.

    After I made my post, I see where you did burn at 8X.

    Let me check CDBurnerXP and I'll get back.

    First, use CD-R's for burning audio CD's, NOT CD-RW.

    Here is the setup I used to burn an audio CD with CDBurnerXP
