In NERO, how do you control the order of the songs?

Drag and drop them into the order you want?

are you talking about a standard audio cd, or mp3?

I find it intolerably stupid that it lets me import an m3u playlist... and then completely ignores the order the songs were in.
So far, my workaround is to rename all the songs with 000_, 001_, 002_, etc in front of the file name once I'm in Nero. My head unit is supposed to read m3u files, but doesn't seem to actually do it.

folders...or preface each filename with a number :thumbsup:

... whenever I import an m3u file into Nero, it preserves the order that it was in...

I had this exact same problem. The way I circumvented it was by ditching nero and using iTunes to burn the mp3 disc. I downloaded iTunes just for this purpose and it WORKED! It won't ah heck up your song order.

Re-naming 100+ files isn't my idea of fun. :thumbsdown:

MP3 discs are the only thing I use Roxio for.

That is the problem - I am burning MP3's.

For an mp3 disc, or an audio CD? If the former, which version are you using? Maybe they fixed it and I need to upgrade...

meh...for MP3 I just dump songs on, burn, and push shuffle on my head unit in my car.

Ya, that's always what I end up doing anyway

ugh...I HATE nero for burning normal music cds....was gonna post a thread about it....it burns skips into the songs for me for some reason.....i've used the mp3's before so I know it's not them....and the cds come out fine with other programs...

I used to do that, but my head unit doesn't remember that it was in shuffle mode when I turn the car back on like my old one did. Does your unit keep a memory of the songs it's already played? That's what I'd really like.

Nero gets praises on internet forums, but what the hell if it can't do mp3s in order?
I just reburned my disc with itunes, and it worked.

Glad to hear it!

Thats a computer problem, not Nero


MP3 cd's are just data disks


All Computers will reazd them by alphabetical order


There is no way Nero or any other program can
choose the order of playback
