Jamie - If I can try and make it simple :] The blank CD is a data CD, the 
files I burn to it are MP3, so I'm creating a data CD of MP3 files; I've 
done this loads of times with different burning software. My query is why 
with this particular software [Express burn] when the burn begins, does it 
tell me it is writing "the data iso cd?" What is 'iso' and because it 
mentions it, does it mean the disc burning is different to when in the past 
I have used Easy CD Creater to burn discs?

Am I being clear? <smile>Andy

Andy,

Yes, I believe that MP3 files are data files but I also think that .WAV
files are as well.  On a Music CD - and I mean one that has been formatted
as a Music CD rather than a data CD which happens to have .WAV files on it,
I think that the files become .CDA files even if they started life as .WAV
files.  Happy to be told I'm wrong on this one as well! (Smile)

I'm not sure if I'm picking you up correctly or not but I guess that the
burning software sees that the contents of this particular CD (within the
ISO image file) contains data files whereas, if you created an ISO image
file of a Music CD, it might then say "Music ISO" rather than "Data ISO"?
Just a guess.

Jamie

Jamie - Aren't MP3 files just data files, they're not music files in the way

.wav files are. After the disk has burned, the PTR1 sees it as an mp3 cd,
which is correct, so I just wonder why the burning software announces
"writing data iso CD." - Andy

Andy,

Not sure about Data ISO file but, in general, my understanding is that an
ISO file is an image of the whole contents of a CD, regardless of the types
of files included in the image.  A data CD, however, is specifically a CD
that contains files structured in a standard file storage style as against
other formats like music CD's etc.

Don't know if this answers your question or not.

Cheers,

Jamie

Just wondering what the difference is between a data format and an iso
format; each time I burn a CD on my computer using installed software, the
programme says "writing the data iso cd" the end product is a disk with MP3
files on it, which is what I want, but don't understand why in the writing
process the programme calls it a "data iso cd?" Anybody say what this is
about? Thanks - Andy

so
| now I know I can upgrade my unit!
