Can anyone help me with a query I have regarding audio CDs. I am relatively new to this having acquired a Freecom CD-R drive a short while ago. I can burn/copy data CDs without any problems but audio do cause me some grief. This is using EastCD v4.02. If I try anbd copy a audio CD it almost invariably fails. I am then reduced to extracting each track one by one. Then one wil fail and I have to skip and go onto the next. Now I can understand that audio CDs may get more wear and soem of the surfaces do look 'marked' however, if something like media player can play back the track why can'y Easy CD read it? Am I missing something obvious here? Thanks Frank see.my.sig@ozemail.com.au (Noel Bachelor) wrote in message news:<3c32d833.953933799@news.bigpond.com>... > On or about Tue, 1 Jan 2002 11:25:08 +1100, "Rod Speed" > <rod_speed@yahoo.com> allegedly wrote something like: > > > What are people using for looking at dubious burnt audio CDs ? > > There are a couple of devices I know of that will give you detailed error > reports on a CD, but they are hardware items.
