How come Windows Media player 9 wont let me record another track on my blank disk?

Question

I just recorded one, but it wont let me record another & it was over 80 minutes left!

Answer 1

Unless you are saving in with a windows format, burning Music and Movies close the CD automatically and there is nothing you can do about it. So if you only record one song you will not be able to add on to it. Best to be sure you have all the music selected before burning.

Answer 2

I would advise that first of all you download windows media player 11 from www.microsfoft.com (its a free upgrade) and then try again as it has alot more helpful features to sort out these little problems. but they are correct above. if you have recorded one track and finished then you cannot record another onto a cd-r.

Answer 3

I am assuming that you're using a CD-R and not a CD-RW. A CD-R is a WORM device (Write Once, Read Many). Once you write and close out the disc, which is what Media Player does, you can no longer write to the disc. Best advice... make sure that you know all of the tracks you'd like to write to a disc before you write it.
