I doubt there is any reason that files need to be in the wave format. I don't
recall if I've burned MP3 files but I've never seen such a requirement
discussed and I'm more than skeptical. Burning programs have to convert the
files they are burning to the CD format so one original format should be able
to be burned as much as another. If someone has a lot of mp3 files he/she
wants to burn, why go through the trouble of converting them all to wave files?

I suspect the issue is with the MPEG format. While some newer CD players will
handle a variety of formats, older players expect the disk to be in the audio
CD format. Files to be burned should be in the .wav format at 16 bit and 44.1
Hz.
Some time ago I went through the frustration of investigating Media Player.
For me, it is not worth the tedium. I have an aging copy of Nero Express. To
burn a CD I simply put the .wav files, appropriately named, into an empty
folder. Having selected all files, I press Application Key and arrow to burn
with Nero. Then, follow a few prompts and the job is done.
If you want a free, accessible CD burner, I have positive reports about CD
Burner XP.

Yes, I followed your steps and got a cd burned. It came out in something called
mpeg4 audio. It wouldn’t play on my stereo cd player though so don’t know why
not. I really appreciate all your help. Maybe I should send you a spindle of
cdrs, ssmile.

Larry,
Does that mean you were successful? I killed all those CDs when I was learning
Windows 10 after finding it was different from Windows 7. Glad you got it done.

Larry,
In step four the two choices are radio buttons so only one can be checked.
Which ever one is checked when you advance to the next button is what you will
end up with. You may try arrowing up and down between them then tabbing to the
next button. I have no idea what type of files end up burning onto the CD, I
always start out with MP3. I export all my Audacity work as MP3 but I doubt
that’s the issue. After hitting the next button in step four the Media player
should open. There have been times when I’ve had to shift tab to the media
player If it doesn’t show up right away. Once at the media player just tab
until you find the start burn button. I turned a lot of blank CD’s
Into little frisbies or drink coasters figuring this out. Maybe there’s
something off in your Media Player settings and I’m not sure what to tell you
on that. I just followed these steps and made a cd that I’m playing on a
portable boom box right now. Good luck and tell me if you get it. You may
also try the method the other gentleman suggested. One more thing, what kind
of CDs are you using? Blank or re-writable? I’ve never had luck with the CD RW
for anything other than data storage.

Larry,
I’ve made some changes in my instructions. Step 4 is most likely where you had
a problem. Let me know if you get it this time.
1. install blank disc into drive.
2. Open album and select all songs you want burned Control+A.
3. open Application menue and enter on, Send To, then enter on the CD Drive.
The drive opens and asks which kind of disc to choose. Choose to use with a
CD player then tab to next. This will lead to a message that says You have
files ready to be burned to disc.
4. Open Application Menu and enter on Burn to disc. The first round in the
dialog has disc name and recording speed and I leave these on the defaults.
After hitting the Next button you have a choice to make. There are two
choices. Be sure to choose, Make an audio CD for standard CD players.
Hitting the Next button will take you to the Media Player.
5. Tab until you find the Start Burn button . Enter on this button and
you’re off to the races.
6. Go back to the drive, open Application menu and enter on Delete Tempory
Files to clear the files for the next burn.

Steve, I must be doing something wrong. Here’s what I did.
1. navigated to the desired folder in file explorer.
2. opened the file.
3. selected all tracks.
4. Applicationed on it and selected send to and then my dvd/cd drive.
5. picked the cd radio button and went to next.
I never got to windows media player and the burn button. I could get the lot of
tracks to burn only by navigating to the dvd/cd drive in my computer and
application my way down to burn. I could only get m4a tracks when I’d really
like an audio cd playable on any cd player. Any ideas?

Larry,
Here’s how to do it in Windows 10. I’d have to play around a bit to remember
how to do it with Windows 7. Good Luck.
Steve
1. install blank disc into drive.
2. Open album and select all songs you want burned Control+A.
3. open Application menue and enter on, Send To, then enter on the CD Drive.
The drive opens with a dialogue ending withfiles ready to be written to disc.
4. Open Application Menu and enter on Burn to disc. Go through the dialogue
and this eventually takes you to the Media player.
5. Tab a thousand times until you find the Start Burn button . Enter on this
button and you’re off to the races.
6. Go back to the drive, open Application menu and enter on Delete Tempory
Files to clear the files for the next burn.
