First, little do I mess with mp3 audio files. But somewhere in my pea brain, I think that to burn to cd you need to make sure audio files are being 'saved/burned/whatever' as audio files, not data. Something 'about' some prefile? or header or file name type thing in 'data' type that audio doesn't use??? And that tells whatever that it is a 'data' file and not audio??? Might be wrong, but a couple years ago I went nuts and figured it out on my own after ruining two blanks. Possibly you didn't notice the difference and it went data type instead of audio type...??? Ed/ke7feg ....Hurry up November...enough heat so far!! Did I mention, 2/23/07 the FCC dropped all cw (AKA Morse code) testing for any class of license as a ham? Just pass the written exams. --- On Fri, 10/3/08, Josef Lowder wrote: > From: Josef Lowder > Subject: K3b burning mp3s problem > To: "Plug" > Date: Friday, October 3, 2008, 11:12 AM > After creating some mp3 audio tracks on my hp-xp laptop (gag > ... because > I haven't figured out how to do this on my main Linux > system yet) ... and > since the cd/dvd burner on my laptop seems to have flaked > out ...
