Title: iTunes Not Burning Track Information
Post by: hismajesty on April 12, 2006, 04:56 PM
I bought a CD on iTunes this morning and went to burn it to CD but both times I tried it burns the music fine but it doesn't burn the CD title or track/artist information. The CD player in my car shows the artist and song title so I'd rather it say something than "Unknown Artist - Track 1." What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Put the Cd on your iPod & then get an adapter thing for your car.
CDs are SO last week

Is it burning as Redbook audio or an MP3 CD?

I guess whatever the default is. I have "Audio CD" selected, should I select "MP3 CD?"

CrAz3D: I have an adapter, but it's an FM one that doesn't work all the time and a CD is easier.

I don't think it matters. I'm not sure the track information is supposed to be burned.

Yes it is. It does matter to me because my car cd player shows the track information.

There's a feature of some CDs called "CD Text".  My Pioneer deck, for instance, supports it.  But I rarely use it; I always use MP3 CDs.

My stereo (I payed nice amounts of money for it) plays MP3 cds, so it just gets the track information straight from the mp3 file.  If your player supports this, I would make mp3 cds instead of standard audio cds.  Otherwise, I'm not sure if you can save the track info at all.

Yeah my CD player supports MP3's. I'll burn it as an mp3 cd. Thanks.
