Hello there,
I burned a .wma and a .mp3 CD with "???", well I introduced my blank cd and a little window appeared asking what I want an I pressed the "audio-cd" button. Two different CDS burned the same way.

I can play them on my PC with MPlayer, they sound pretty good.
When I try to listen at them in my cd player it just simulate to start playing but there's no sound neither I can move to next song.

Do anyone know how to burn a cd that can be play on any cd player?

Thanks for reading.

I've used K3b on mepis & other distros successfully. It comes packaged with several distros. What distro are you using?

Use gnomebaker.I dont think it gets installed by default.Just a thought.Did you use a cd-rw??If you did maybe your cd player has trouble reading cd-rw's .

Well, Gnomebaker is installed by default, I will try it and post the result. And no, I use cd-r, I had been using the same cds to burn with Ashampoo in my windows xp past life and they worked ok in the same cd player, that's why I thought maybe the software I used with my Debian present life is the problem. Anyway I will try Gnomebaker or K3b as crenclan suggested.

I will let you know what happen.

If you have an Mp3 player, burn it as a data disc and just keep the .mp3 format. If on the other hand you want it to play on anything just like it would if you bought it from the store, burn as audio CD, the files will be formatted to the standard CD audio format which is .cda if I am not mistaken.

K3B (K III B) comes with Etch in the KDE environment and I have found K3B to be VERY easy and user friendly for most uses.

I rip my CD's to my hard drive in Ogg format, then can add them to a new project and burn a CD very quickly and easily...

Like others have said, use K3B. I have used it successfully for several years.

Thanks to all of you, I just burned my first avi file with Gnome Baker at it worked fine. But I will try K#B.
