Brendon Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 A 700 MB CD can usually hold just a little under 80 minutes of Audio. A 650 MB CD nominally holds about 74 minutes. How many minutes does your "old music CD" have on it? You say the CD is "apparently" 726 MB. How are you measuring that? If it's an image file of 726 MB the content might well fit on a 700 MB blank CD. Finally, which version of Creator DE do you have? [see Help > About when running the software] Different versions have different abilities, and I suspect yours won't be version 6, which is where you've posted your question.

operaboy1 Posted October 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 I may have placed my question in the wrong category. I have Easy Media Creator 9. The CD is 82:32 minutes. When I made the temp copy, it said it was 726 MB. When I put in a 700MB blank CD, a screen pops up saying it's too much info for that blank CD.

cdanteek Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 The CD is 82:32 minutes. A commercial bought CD? What CD, name, group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDWAGON Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Here's some interesting data regarding CD-r disks. Possible that the disk was "overburned" for the disk regular capacity ??

operaboy1 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 The CD came with a magazine. It is Verdi's Requiem Mass. Recorded in 1988. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdanteek Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 The CD came with a magazine. It is Verdi's Requiem Mass. Recorded in 1988. Disc # 1 or Disc # 2 won't copy and is 82:32 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
operaboy1 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Only one disc, and it's 82:32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendon Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 If they can fit the tracks into a master for "pressing" the original CD, they can make a CD as long as they like. This used to be done back in the 80's to prevent copying the disc, since there's no way you're going to get 82.5 minutes safely onto a burnable CD. It was probably done like that deliberately. It doesn't stop you ripping the tracks, but you can't make a 1-disc copy. Regards, Brendon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
