Does 2GS play any CD-RWs at all?

Just wondering if the player is just picky or does it not play any CD-RW at all?

make sure you "close the session" when burning and it should work.

my changer was SUPER picky when it was in. Only thing i could get to it to play was cd's that were burned using NERO at around 2x

memorex, sony lots and lots if cheap cdrw

. they all worked.
i usually burn with nero and windows media and i have never had any problems.
windows media usually closes burning session on its own after writing on disc is completed.
good luck

no i dont think he's burning mp3's and trying to listen to them with the cd changer.. that wont work for sure.

i think he just means cd rewriteables.. those, ive never tried because i never buy em. the price of regular cd-r's are so cheap that there is no need for the rw's
