I have Windows Media Player, Nero, Augiograbber, and Express Burn. All more or less equal media players. Each allows me to burn cds from hard drive files. When I want to make a disc copy, they will rip and place in temp file on hard drive, but won't burn to new cd. Any idea why this situation exists? I have these drives: Samsung SW-240, and Samsung SD-616T. For some reason, the only drive connected to the media players is Samsung SW-240. For whatever reason, they don't recognize Samsung SD-616T. Not sure why they won't allow me to copy discs.
DO it in two steps . Rip the files to the HDD as WAV files and verify that they play. Once you know they're good, create the audio CD from them.
Huh! a good work around, no doubt. I didn't know my OS won't let me do a disc-to-disc copy. That tells me the way it is....
It will not let you do a disk to disk copy of copyrighted material. You can have many reasons to rip a CD most legal. Really old CDs are not marked as copyrighted and you can copy them. Some new CDs can't be ripped.
