CD Burn problems

[gcsheph]

Using Pioneer DVD R/rw DVD_ReWritable unit. Other products write CD's on this drive ok.

I was testing Express Burn prior to potentially buying a larger version. I opened 7 MP3 files in Express Burn (Audio CD checked) and each plays properly. When I attempt to burn to a CD-R disc, the system quits after just a few seconds and says "cd ready for use" but there is no data on it. Maybe there is something incompatible with what I'm trying but I can't figure it out. Any ideas you have would be most appreciated. Thanks. Gary

Gary,

 

I had a similar problem as you with blank disk after burn. I use a Pioneer DVR-710 internal burner. I just purchased Express Burn last week and I would start Express Burn and click on "Add Files" and selected the files I wanted to burn. Then I would click on "Burn CD" in the lower right corner. At this time a drop down window would display and ask whether to "Burn directly to internal burner" or "Burn using Windows Media Player." I did not pay attention to this window close enough. It was defaulted to "Burn directly to internal burner" and everytime I tried to burn this way I had the same problem you did. I finally paid closer attention and chose the second option "Burn using Windows Media Player." I no longer have problems burning CD Disks. It works great now however I am not sure this will solve your problem but thought I would suggest it.

 

Good Luck

Hi,

 

I experience the same problems. My burner is a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-106D.

Also tried the tip "Burn using Windows Media Player." but only 4 files out of the 8 are copied.

Impossible to find any email address to post my problem, but nothing available.

Please advise,

 

Christian

I too am not able to get the audio cd's to burn. I go through the process and it says the cd is ready to use... then the cd is empty. I even tried it using Window Media Player option with no such luck. I am trying to burn sermons recorded into wavepad saved as either an mp3 or wave file. I thought maybe it was the files so I tried just opening up Window Media Player and it burned just fined. I really liked express burn because it is simple to use and I liked when i tried it, but when I purchased it I can't get it to work. does anyone have any suggestions? Please help.
