Three problems appeared when the burn finalized:
- The CD name and track names were horribly wrong.
- The last track did not show up on the CD.
- The second to last track was truncated, with a play time of 6 seconds total.

Since it has come up a few times, I just included that one in the FAQ <file:///Users/hairer/Sites/HairerSoft/AmadeusPro/AmadeusProFAQ.html#cdnamesThe CD name and track names were horribly wrong.
Bizarre, I'll check on that one. Are you sure that you placed theThe last track did not show up on the CD.

Thanks. That makes sense. I wasn't able to check on another computer that doesn't have iTunes. The Finder may pull info from iTunes, which is maybe why it showed up wrong on the desktop too. Not every CD did that, but some do.Martin Hairer wrote:Since it has come up a few times, I just included that one in the FAQ
I actually didn't move the markers. They were all created automatically during the Join Files process.Bizarre, I'll check on that one. Are you sure that you placed the
markers correctly?
CD-Text is not standard at all, AFAIK, unless things have changed since i looked into it years ago. There were two competing "standards", which as you have already read, store the information in two different places. I think one place was the lead-in area, and the other in the subcode area for the actual tracks. I do remember that the two methods were incompatible: a given system/player worked with one, but not the other.doctorD wrote:So I created a CD from AP following the procedure in the manual - naming the markers with the name of the songs, etc, burning the CD from AP.
When I put the CD into my car CD player, it didn't show any title information for the CD. It did initially show the song names but when a song was playing, it did not show the name of it (said it was missing), nor could I return to get the list of song names.
Any idea of what's going on. How standard is the CD-Text anyway. The little research I've done on it suggests that there are two places where the data can reside on the CD.
