ML/DVD music, anyone tried roxio music dvd?
Since the ML DVD drive won't play an MP3-loaded DVD, I was thinking about using Roxio Toast Titanium 7's DVD Audio (basically a DVD full of music, and the video is just album art, etc) to burn a bunch of music onto a set of DVDs...

Has anyone tried this yet? Any hitches with using the NAV hack to play music in this way? Would sound processing work OK for regular 2-channel music?

You are getting very close to doing something like what I have already done. In just a few short days, I will create a post describing how I have created a multimedia CD containing movies, videos, music, slideshows, images, album arts, and other graphics up to 4.7gb worth or even up to double layer 8+ gb that will play on your ML DVD player. However, I am using something other than a dvd audio burning software implementation.

I don't understand the whole audio format thing on DVDs and CDs. On a CD you can only get a dozen or so songs, how many should I be able to fit on a standard DVD?

Ooops, I made a mistake... instead of DVD-Audio I meant DVD music. They (roxio) claim you can get up to 50 hours of music on a DVD (to which I call BS, because I'm sure the sound quality is terrible), but I think they're basically using all the data space on a DVD for audio, using the video part of a DVD only for menuing, and somehow squashing a lot of audio data on a DVD.
They don't use DVD-A to do this... rather it's some odd use of DVD-Video.

So, it looks like the Roxio software is automating this process...

I have 40+ albums on a DVD I burned using DVD Audio Creator. Seems to work well, I added the album art and background art for the menus. 5 Pages with at least 10 albums per page. Only time you notice poor sound quality is when the source I burnt from (either wma or mp3) was of poor quality to begin with.

How can you have 40+ albums on a single DVD with this software? From what I've been reading on their site, they convert to PCM format, which is the same as CD. I don't think it actually stores music as MP3 format.
Just curious.
Thanks.
