CD Track Titles and other info.

[Lunaray]

I have a few musician friends who makes and sells their CD's and though they do a nice job packaging them with good art work, etc., there is no track information on them, when I play their CD's it says: Uknown Artist, Tack 1, Track 2, etc. How do you get this information on the CD?

I've done a little reading and I guess what commercial CD's use is "CD Text", but I don't think the common CD Burning software (Nero, CD Creator, etc.) supports this format, I think I tried doing it once with Nero, but it didn't work.

Can anyone tell me how to do this, or point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Nero does support it actually.

If you just go straight to the "Nero Burning ROM", and set it for "Audio CD", you should get an option to put in Title and Artist.

Individual track names have to be renamed once they're added to the burn list in the explorer view thing.

Hope that makes sense.

Hope that makes sense.Thanks I'll try that the next time I burn a CD of my own, but I wonder if it's possible to copy one of their CD's and then add the track titles, the album name and the artist, before actually doing the burning? Then I could give that copy back to them and they could use it for their new master with all of the added information.

I think you'd have to rip the CD to the PC first (just keep it as WAV files so it doesn't get converted back and forth)...I haven't done a CD to CD copy in so long though, I'm not really sure.
