Can't burn MP3 music disks

[Mitch470]

I use Windows 7 64 bit Home Edition and MediaMonkey 3.2.0.1294 Gold Edition and cannot burn MP3 music CD disks which can be read by my Bose Radio. Even burning regular music CD disks are usally readable but seem to have errors on one or more songs per disk.

I tried burning at the lowest speed and unchecking all options settings but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

When I had Windows XP SP3, I had no problems burning MP3 and regular music disks. Those old burned disks still work perfectly.

It appears my brand, new high speed Dell is simply incompatible with my old disk players in the Bose and in my car. I tried changing masks but it doesn't help. I upgraded MM to 3.2.4.1304 and tried to use a mask with just a 3 digit number under \Music in case some titles were the problem. The CD is still rejected with an error from the Bose.

Its possible that Amazon has started protecting MP3 downloads since 2010. All my other songs were from 2009 or earlier. Its also possible that my disc drive is burning all discs as 64 bit and my old 32 bit or even less readers just cannot read them.

Does anyone have some idea how to correct this problem?

So the disks are burnt okay but it doesn't play back on your BOSE player? Does it play back through the PC?

I never tried it on the PC. However, regular song discs burned with MM also have problems on my car stereo.

However, that was my "D" drive. I just burned an MP3 disc for the Bose on my "E" drive and it was accepted without error. I also burned a regular song disc for my car stereo on the "E" drive and will try it in a few days there.

It could be that the "D" drive can read normally but may be a defective writer. I will know for sure if no problems occur from "E" drive burned discs over the next week. Thanks, for the response.

I just started burning discs from MM a couple of weeks ago from that "D" drive. My old PC scrapped last July had no problems burning discs from MM.

I would test if the discs play at all on the PC, if they don't even play there then obviously you're having some kind of burning issue with Mm.
