Burning CDs to play on car stereo
 

I am to the point of postal aggrivation. I have downloaded some songs and placed them on a cd-r disk and they play just fine on my computer but when I try to play them in my car there's nothing. I tried mp3 files and .wav files and still nothing. I have no idea what else to do. Please help me. Also, I'm sort of new to this, so please don't use too technical of terms. ;) Thanks!

Is there is difference between cd-r, cd-r music, and cd-r dvd? What's the difference? Could this be my problem? Thanks again!

Make sure you don't burn them too fast. Burn them at a much slower speed. Some cd media are unreliable to burn at high burn speeds. Likewise some cd players might not play cd's burnt at very high speeds. And some burners are not reliable for high speed burning (despite their claims, apparently some brands don't even burn at the speeds they claim according to tests I read about.)

I don't usually see them listed that way. cd-r probably referes to a data cd. cd-r dvd might refer to a vcd/svcd.

Make sure it's CD-R media you are using. CD-RW's will not play on set-top/car cd players. And make sure you choose the correct format to burn in within your burner software. Choose Music/Audio CD (do not choose mp3!)

Hope this helps u solve this problem.

Thank you!
