I have Nero 6, creating an ordinary Audio CD from WAV files. Why don't my CD players want to play the disks? I put the CD on my computer which states the files are 'CD Audio track' and no problem, but none of my stand-alone CD players will recognise the disks as being audio!!!! CDs are CDR-80, are there some special setttings??

Ok - Update - The CD plays in my car stereo, but I need to be able to burn a CD with the correct settings so that it plays in all CD players - regardless of how old the player might be!!!

Hmm I don't believe so. Try a newer player, some players have issues with CD-Rs and CD-RWs. Did you close the burning session?

Well it could have to do with the type of cd player you have, and if it is an Mp3 player. And it could just be Nero because that has happened to me before, it's much better to use Itunes or realplayer to create audio cds that are capable of playing on EVERY cd player.
But if those programs don't work for you...operator error. JK
lol.

Please use the special (and more expensive) AUDIO-CD blanks for recording and do the recording on a AUDIO-CD Recorder, which looks like a VCR.
Philips, Harmon Kardon etc manufacture these VCR looking recorders.
Alternatively, dump your old CD Player and go in for a new player (MP3 Compatible) which can also play CDs burnt in a Computer.
This still means that some of your friends having the old generation CD Players cannot play your CDs in their players.

The only thing I can think of is that Nero didn't convert the .WAV files to .CDA format. Check your home-burned CDs in your computer and check out one of the song files. If it's still in .WAV format, your stand-alone CD player won't recognize it. If it IS in .CDA format, it should work. Bear in mind that some older CD players won't play home-burns no matter what you do. Good luck!

you can't play a disk with computer files on it unless you buy a special mp3 or wav cd player, you need to use windows media player or yahoo music engine and click burn cd, it will convert them from computer files to cd playable files.

Go into Options next time, and make sure that the program closes both the session and the disc. Then, your cd player should be able to play it.

try getting a cd burner to make cds, it's probably the cd player that doesn't really want to read the cd or the cd could be bad or scratched

buy a blank one and burn cds on it and make a cd label on the computer by installing a certain program called cd labels and cut out the center
