Can anyone help me on how do i burn audio tracks and a video clip(mtv) onto 1 CD. Such then when it is put into a cd player it will just play the tracks and when its put into a vcd player it will be able to play the video clip as well.
Just burn it as a data CD. However, make sure your standalone player can read data discs as to select the correct file to play; in your case, the video.
I tried that as well. But my cd, vcd and dvd player all couldn't read the disc. Only when i put it into a computer than it could be read.
I don't think so. I am using Nero 7 and i am still quite new to it. Could u teach me how to burn it as a muti session disc?
No, the point is NOT to burn as a multi-session disc as many DVD players cannot read them. When you go through the burn phase in Nero, make sure this box is selected... I'm using Nero 6, so it may look slightly different.
Theres no mutli session option in nero 7. Besides nero, wad other programs can i use? or any easier burning programs?
You could use IMGBurn to make an ISO of the files you'd like to burn and then burn it to the CD - that may work for you.
Yup i have that too but i dun reallie know how to use it... Would it affect anything if i used a cd-rw? coz i dun wanna waste cds
It's the same principle for CDs as it is DVDs, an ISO is merely an image of a disc. See this: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/383878
ok thanks.. i'm trying it now.. in any case, is there a guide for using nero 7 to do mutli session discs?
No, the point is you shouldn't be burning the disc as multi-session in the first place - that's what I was trying to establish.
ok. thanks anyway. i have to try it again in the morning, should i require any more assistance i will post another reply.. thanks so much for ur help. appreciate it alot.
Nope it still doesn't work. The disc cant be read by a cd player or vcd player. Would it work if i burned it as an "Audio and Data" disc? This is the burning option i have in my other nero software,
Can't be done.. the filesystems both need to be at the root of the disk and will conflict. You see both kinds of format expect certain files to be in specific physical places on the disk, and a dvd player that sees both svcd and cda files will not know what sort of disk it is and will crash. If this could be done there would be companies selling disks like this.. but there are none. You could try the trick with a dvd disk.. put the music files in the audio.ts folder and the film in the video.ts folder. will not play in a cd player, but may just work in your dvd player.
It can be done. I have bought an album abt 7 years ago which had this. It had all the tracks on the cd as well as an mtv. The reason why i wanna do this is because my friend is has just cut an album and would like to release it to the public. Thats why it would have to be on a cd instead of a dvd.
