Re: Audio CD won't play on other devices.

Just reread the part that says. "I may be totally off the track".
Ignore the rest.

Re: Audio CD won't play on other devices.

I suggest converting the wma files to .wav files, before
burning to disc.

See if that works.

No, I meant just put them on the CD as .wav files.

( But don't forget this,"I may be totally off the track")

Edit. Sorry I mean just let the Roxio convert to cda
as part of it's process, but use .wav as source files.

It's been a while, but just tested this and it works.

Thank you for downloading Switch Sound File Converter from Download.com

Re: Audio CD won't play on other devices.

Really, what difference would it make burning a wma to a cda and a wav to a cda?

Maybe none. It's just that .wav has been in use longer and may be compatible with more players than .wma.

WMA won't work on most devices. Use .mp3, but its up to the device. Rip your cd's if you don't burn copies of them losslessly if your pc has enough space.
