| 158699 | 2003-07-10 09:26:00 | Hi, Need a bit of help with some audio files if anyone can. I downloaded a talking book in mp3 format 20 files in total. Easy I thought, crank up Nero & make an audio CD like I do for music. Wrote the CD ok but it won't play in a normal stereo. Checking the disk the files are .cda Plays ok on the computer though. Any ideas? Thanks |

| 158700 | 2003-07-10 09:33:00 | Did you write it at a slow speed? Did you write it on different media? Is it a CD-R you wrote to, or CD-RW?? Lo. |

| 158701 | 2003-07-10 10:06:00 | On CDR as I normally do with music but I did write at 32x whereas I usually do music at 10x I might redo it at 10x & see what happens Thanks Loshing. |

| 158702 | 2003-07-10 10:40:00 | in nero click new and select audio cd, hit the extras tab & file encoding, click add, & add the files to be encoded, & in the output file drop down box select PCM wave file(*.wav) then select your target were you want the wave files to be stored, then hit the go button. once it is completed open the folder where you saved the files and drag them into nero high lite them all right mouse click select properties, a box called audio properties will open , click on filters, select the normalize tab, select maximum and click apply and ok. hit record and i bet you can now play your disk in any home or car stereo. B-) |

| 158704 | 2003-07-10 11:22:00 | Apparently in the same way converting them to wav files first... ;) Lo. |

| 158705 | 2003-07-10 11:26:00 | www.goldwave.com can normalize the sounds.. I cant remember how, but it can.. Convert them all too.. Opening and saving them again will make sure they're "clean" mp3's, as sometimes Nero reads things different from WinAmp say. Otherwise, does it play on the PC at all??? |

| 158706 | 2003-07-10 11:30:00 | normalization is just an option if you want all your volume settings to be the same, especially if audio files or MP's are collected from different sources, its not necessary, but more professional. i do this all the time with no problems. hope i have been some help. |

| 158707 | 2003-07-10 11:39:00 | Usually the prob with a CD not playing in a standalone CD player results from burning the CD at too high a speed. This results in 'jitter' errors which can make the CD sound scratchy, or even read problems... as he's said he's burnt the CD at 32X whereas he normally does it at 10X, the problem would probably be because of too fast a write speed... Normalising has its time and place, but more often than not, I find it a pain... I guess I feel the less you do to an mp3, the closer it sounds to the original source... if that means that I have different volumes across the board, I tend to overlook that! Just me being me, I suppose... ;) Lo. |

| 158708 | 2003-07-10 11:49:00 | agreed, it is a speed and file format problem, audio likes a slower speed for burning. it must be a wave file to play on older home cd players as well. |
