ciciemn10 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I burned a blank cd & can't get it to play on my Media Player 11 (windows xp) on my Real Player. Both say disc is empty Both Actually show the Name of my cd But my Media Player actually lists my cd as a DEVICE!!! What's up with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I commented on the "Like" because someone (perhaps you) clicked on the red "Like This" near the bottom of each post.. Perhaps it wasn't you. I would suspect that the bit rate of the mp3 files is the problem. Make sure they all 128 kbps. Anything much higher or lower than that will be a problem for some programs. I know you are using cds but make sure you are buying good quality discs and burning at a rate lower than the maximum. Also make sure your hard drive (unless it is solid state) is defragged/optimized. Let us know what bit rate the mp3s are. . Right click on a couple of the files and select details to find out. I'm assuming that the mp3 files are from a source that doesn't have copy protection on them (like some from ITunes). Have you talked to RealPlayer about this or looked at their web site. Real is a very proprietary format that not many other software packages will handle the format. If they are RL format, then that will give you issues trying to convert to a standard mp3 format.

tbrewst Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Another question would be what is the make and model of the mobile recorder you're using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendon Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 A big question which might help is What Roxio software are you trying to do this with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandpabruce Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 A big question which might help is What Roxio software are you trying to do this with? You got it.

sknis Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 Hey guys. This is the general part of the forum where there doesn't have to be any Roxio product involved. That is why I commented on Real Player since he mentioned that above.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why I commented on Real Player since he mentioned that above.. Hi Steve, the header of this topic is: - Unable To Play, Burn Or Rip Any Roxio Data Cd. That's why we're asking which Roxio product the OP is using. Regards, Brendon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
