I just burned a CD with 66 mp3 files on it and it plays fine on my EGC.I used Roxio Creator Classic and burned as fast as my Plextor drive would burn it.

 

I'm going to try burning the CD on my PC at work today. Everything I've tried on the Mac (different speeds, different burning programs, etc) result in the same problem.

All the files play in my car, on the computer and on the home CD player.

The mystery continues...

 

I have no trouble recording cd's for my bike and it plays them just fine but how do you get 66 songs on a disk? The most I have ever got was 30 something. It used up almost the entire 80 min. on the disk.

 

I use I-Tunes to rip and burn. I have done this on a MAC and a PC and everything works fine

 

The disk that's currently in my player has about 130 mp3's on it and I don't have any problems playing it. (Unless you count the problem of trying to find a particular track quickly. [])

Reading the replies, I think there's some confusion about burning mp3's as music or data. If you burn it as music you will get 10-15 tracks per disk and it should play in any CD player. But some players, including the HK, will also read mp3's burned as data and THAT's how you get so many songs on a disk. A 700 mb disk will hold a lot of 4 mb files. Not all CD players will play files that haven't been converted to music, though.

 

The Harley radio will not play MP3 formatrecorded as "Music". The disc must be burned as a "data" disc. It's in the manual. Mine works fine.

 

I recorded the disks as "data". Humm... wonder why it starts playing at around 30 on both disks. Maybe it's not reading the inside portion of the CD correctly.

I'll try burning using iTunes...

Thanks for the help and ideas.

 

Sure hope it works out for you, otherwise it'll probably be heading for the shop.

 

Then don't tell my player. It doesn't know any better and plays music CD's recorded from mp3s just fine.

 

Burning Mp3's using itunes has been the easiest one to use so far. Depending on the length of the songs, I have been able to put 163 songs on 1 cd. I burn at the fastest rate and no problems have occurred so far. My music is downloaded normal and as a data cd. Just try itunes one time and see(its Free). Good luck
