Hi John,
I just got a new DVD player. Up until now I have always used MC to burn my mp3 cds. Data CD burned to a CDRW. Nice and easy. However I tried one of my MC burned CDs in the new player and it wouldn't register the disc properly. This DVD player is a play it all kind of DVD. It has a DVS loader and can theoretically play any disc you throw it. But it owuldn't read the disc. I tried reburning the disc using the same files in Nero. Played this on the DVD player and it worked fine. Odd I thought so I tried again burning using MC and no joy. The DVD will not register the disc.
I am not sure what info I can really give you to help. I know when I burn with Nero in its MP3 disc mode it can sense the speed to burn the disc at and wont burn higher speed than the disc allows. However I set MC to burn at the same speed and it still wouldn't play. I don't know if it is specificaly CDRWs that have the problem. I don't want to create a coaster unless I have too...
I will post my sys info and if you need me to send you any more info I will. (Its the G Drive that I used. The F Drive is a DVD burner)
