EZ CD 5 Platinum is burning MP3's as 44-byte chit

Helpless

Banned
I installed a new burner in my parents computer...gave them all the software they would need...everything seems to be working okay, except when they try to burn a disk of MP3's converted to .cda's (using EZ CD 5.0 Music Project), it burns each track as 44 bytes 🙁 The disk appears to be full, or at least it shows that 700M was burned, but 15 tracks @ 44 bytes per file doesn;t equal 700M 🙂


Any ideas what is wrong? It will burn MP3's as MP3's just fine, but not converting the MP3's to CDA properly...checked the settings and I have given up...any ideas?
 
Have you tried listening to it in a CD player yet? I am not the expert on this but I think that is the way it's supposed to do it.
 
...has to be a setting in EZ CD 5 or directCD or something...I think it has something to do with the way it finalizes the CD, but I am not sure..


Yea, we tried them in a CD-Player and won't even play from the drive in the computer...each track records as a 44 byte file, yet the CD has just about 700M worth of noise on it...strange 🙂
 
I use this software to make audio CD's which I play in the car mainly - works perfectly each and every time.

Not sure if this will help you or not but I think there might have been an update patch even for EZCD 5.

I have no problems with this software other than noticing that the built in "player" sometimes misreports the file sizes - this has no effect on the finished CD audio tracks or while playing the source mp3's
 
Yea, works fine on my system each and every time, too...tried re-installing it on theirs but to no avail...I'll just install something else, I guess 🙂
 
OK, so it (software) works fine on different systems.

Have you tried changing the Master/Slave configurations for your drives yet?

There is a freeware program for making audio CD's that I have also used - I'll find out the name when I get home tonight.
