Title: Multiple Tracks when Burning
Post by: BuiltToSpill on May 26, 2003, 02:06:06 pm: I have version 177 and when I drag files into my burning drive (E), for an audio burn, a multiple number of each song appears.
But, when I try to delete one of the files from E, each song of the same title goes as well.

Im lost :-/

I just tried it and only one file was sent to the burner, and i tried it two ways.

what are the steps on how your doing this.

Post by: BuiltToSpill on May 26, 2003, 02:23:10 pm: First: I highlight the song(s) I want to burn.

Two: I right click the highlighted set, then in CD,DVD, Handhelds, I click on my burner name.

Three: I click on the icon at the top, "Burn CD."

Once in there, there are a multiple set of each song. Like I said, this is only with Audio burns, and it has been doing this for the past 3 or 4 versions.

Bring in bunch of songs to the burner. Try rearrangine the order, sometimes multiple copies of the same song appear.

Delete does not seem to work at all either from the burn cd window.

I'd call it a bug. Makes is quite difficult to get the proper set of tracks in the right order burned to cd.

I was unable to remove any track (duplicate or not) from the burn window list when doing an audio, but track removal worked when doing a data burn.

The safest and most trouble free manner is to create a playlist first (call it Burn). Dump your tracks into it. Reordering and so on is now a snap. Then right click and send to your burner. Duplicates aren't allowed, though.

Post by: Rudy on May 30, 2003, 05:34:38 am: I was having this same problem too - was driving me crazy. PhatPhreddy sent me this (thanks!):

"When you send to (burner) by any method it is sent.. Then when you click the burn CD that does not simply jump to the point in the tree which is the CD burner (which I though) it also sends the tracks a second time.. So simply press burn CD once when the album is highlighted OR send to and then navigate the tree to get to the burner... "

Basically, it's being sent twice. Does this fix your problem?

Post by: gkerber on May 30, 2003, 06:53:42 am: No, just try re-arranging the order of the tracks in the cd-burning window, or even deleting something.

Makes a mess.
