problem burning cd's

[wcupk]

ok i am hoping someone here can help me. i burned 5 cd's in the past 2 weeks both with nero ver 7 and roxio basic. all of the cd's work on my cpu as well as my players in my house but when i try to play it in my car cd player, it does this odd thing where i can hear it spinning in the drive but it will not play. the tracks show on the screen but it will not play the song. the odd thing is though if i hit the button to change the track back and forth between tracks the songs that i have on the the disk will start playing but if i turn the car off of switch to the radio the cd will start to spin again but not play. i have some old mix cd's that i burned months ago and they work no problem, so it's not my cd player. am i just burning it in the wrong format. any help would be great.


i thought about it and the cd's i used say on them 52x 700mb 80 min and i burned them at 24x could the problem be i burned them at to high a speed and that is why i hear it spining in my car cd player but if i switch back and forth between tracks over again it will start to play after a while. dont think its the media because i had this problem with memorex blanks as well as verbatim lightscribe discs as well

The higher speed you use, generally speaking, the less reliable the burn. That doesn't explain, though, why all your other players are fine with the disc, but not the car player.

How old is your car cd player? I've had old cd players that acted like that. Sometimes a good old fashion smack helps. Does your car player play regular cds fine?

Have you tried playing around with +Rs and -Rs? Some players can get finicky. You're not using re-writables, correct?

Are these mp3s? Have you tried burning other types? What burning settings are you using in Nero- you're burning an audio cd, correct?

the cd player came with the car so it is about 7 or 8 years old. cd's i burned before work as well as reg cd's i bought

The player might be going. 7 or 8 years is a pretty ripe old age for a cd player.

Have you tried playing a regular cd in it lately?

did u make an audio cd or an mp3 cd?

i made a audio cd and the odd thing is once i get the first track to play, if i dont skip tracks or turn off the car and let it play it plays the cd no problem
