I put a blank CD in. I open my CD creator software, and I choose a "Make Data CD" project. I paste all of the MP3 files I want to burn. And I click the "Burn" button.

When my disc is done, the computer sees and plays it just fine, but a CD player in my car won't play it, even though it does play other MP3 CDs. It doesn't reject it with an error, but only sees one track on that CD, and plays it, but no sound comes out.
I am lost.
What should I try next? Is it possible that something is wrong with my writer? Maybe I should try different CD-writing software?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You.

2 Everyone: Thank you very much for your input.

2 bfontenot: I don't remember right now the name of the software. I did do it before I reinstalled Windows on my machine, and it was working. I don't think that it transfers your MP3s to WAV automatically, because with WAV you couldn't have more than 12-24 songs on one CD, where MP3 allows you to have 60-100 songs on one CD.

Most probably your CD players don't support all CDFS try using ISO 9660+Joliet format. I use Nero if you right click on CD / properties/ISO shows the current format.

Check encoder you use for ripping the MP3 CD.

My best guess is check properties of CD that works and set same format for burning. Check support for CDRW as some players don't support RW.

It sounds like a format issue, a lot of car stereos will not play mp3 format. I know you said that it plays other mp3 cd's, did you burn these cd's with the same hardware and software you are using now? I use Roxio at home and although I drag mp3 files on to burn, I believe it actually converts them in a subtle way to an audio format supported by standard cd players. What software are you using? Are you selecting an option that states it will make an audio cd?

Check the manual for your car stereo to see if it plays MP3 files (some do, many do not). If not, you need to create an audio CD, not a data CD. Using this method, your recording software will convert MP3 files to WAV files which consume much more space.

If your car stereo is supposed to play MP3's, read the manual - there may be requirements such a specific folder names where the music files must reside.

Your problem is "Make DATA CD" You need to choose to make and "AUDIO CD". Data is for word, excel, and other files of that nature. Audio is for music, audio recordings, sounds, etc.

If that is not your problem, then it looks like your car stereo is not able to play mp3 files. You could try recording your audio files in a different format such as .wav or .wpm. But to be honest, .mp3 is probably the most universal format for music files so if .mp3 doesn't work then it isn't likely that any of the other formats will work.

When next buying a stereo check for music formats that it is able to play. Most newer ones are made to play mp3s and other popular music formats whereas those that were manufactured more than 3 years ago might not be able to.

Make an MP3 CD. Creator (newer versions) has an option for this. It adds a special playlist file that should solve the problem.

Dont burn it as Data CD, burn it as MP3 disc.
Some players cannot paly mp3 burned as data, so try burn it as Mp3 disc next time.

You might try slowing the burn speed down. My wife's blaupunkt won't see much past 8X even when just burning regular audio CD's.

possibly your DVD participant in basic terms helps or reflects the 1st six hundred tracks? Does it coach all 1100 tracks on your notebook? If it does then the disc is in all probability wonderful, it would desire to be a dilemma inclusive of your DVD participant.
