ok, just kidding,
but I do have a question about Windows MEdia Player if anyone happens to know. IS there a way to burn a CD, without there being a 1-2 second gap tween tracks? I have some tracks that I want to seemlessly run together, but when I burned the CD, theres that stupid gap that I didn't ask for.
 
a - dont use media playern to burn a clients/or yours cd! doesnt it convert them into .wmv's automatically? not a good idea if it does...

b - to answer your question, you want to look for "DISC AT ONCE" mode not "TRACK AT ONCE" mode. That will get rid of your gap. Or, look for where you can edit the time in between tracks, and set it to 0!
 
shackrock is right, Media player is not the way to go. i still reccomend Roxio 5 Platinum. It's what i use, and it's very simple and yet practical at the same time.
 
Media Player is my favourite jukebox software but it annoys me greatly when burning CDs. It's one of those "I know best" pieces of Microsoftware. Nero is my favourite of the rest, and some of the utilities like the wave editor that come with it are occassionally very handy. Conversely, though, Nero Media Player is rubbish.
 
Shackrock's actually not right about disc at once automatically getting rid of the gap, the gap is a seperate setting. On the commercial side of things, Nero is still the schizz... My thoughts on the new Roxio, is that it's just trying to do too much, it also does audio editing, dvd menu layout, your dishes... etc... it's just too bloated for a burning program, and its pretty big too.

I'm also a fan of wavelab strictly as a burning app, since it lets you combine the tracks into one wav file, lets you drop track markers onto the file, so if you have a 60 minute single wav file from a live concert, and you want the tracks to change without a break in the sound, its absolutely simple to do. It will also export the necessary data sheets for prickly dupe houses :)

Just my thoughts.
 
when i got my first real computer, i had a burning program called CeQuadRat CD burner (hold your laughter). it couldn't burn worth a shit, but i could tweak a wave like a professional program. it had a damn setting to auto-master. i've never seen that in nero, or roxio for that matter. of course, i'm strictly roxio now, but i just thought i'd share.
