WMP11 Won't Burn 2 Media.

[psd99]

Hi

been trying to get Windows Media Player 11 to burn some WMA cds. When looking in the properties it displays both my cdrw and dvd rw drives but yet in the burn section it says "Connect a burner and restart the player."

Both drives work fine otherwise. I have just tried to change the IDE channels but it don't make a difference.

What could I do to solve this problem?

Whats wrong with the nero you have ? Why do you neeed WMA can you not just re-code to mp3 or nero-recod ?

i could use nero
but playlists are the problem

can i somehow use the playlists from wmp in nero?

I don't think Nero can import playlists (as far as I know), so you might have to import each song manually if you did do that.

Try re-installing WMP 11 (add/remove components in control panel) and see if that changes anything Worth a shot!

hi yes thanks was thinking that

i got around 35,000 songs so as u can imagine it would be a last resort
looks like this is a huge problem after googling abt it


huge i mean very widespread lots of ppl get it

See your looking for a DVD burner in another thread , better get two or three if your going to put all them songs on to disc .

I've got an Led Zep album in mp3 format and it has a ".m3u" file which I am assuming is a playlist . Opened Nero dragged the .m3u file over and see the result in the pic . Looks like it will burn but its too big for a cd , it is a doulbe cd so no suprise there . Is that what you were after ?
