Ya I will let you guys know tomorrow since I am not gonna drive my baby today

 

yea mine work great too...i've used Memorex CD-Rs, i haven't tried using any +Rs yet

 

typically the skipping is from your computer running out of RAM, or you are burning the disc at too fast of a speed for your pc. i bet your pc has 512mb of ram or less.

--try burning the disc at a slower speed (16x or 8x) just once and see if it comes out any better.

ALSO DON'T do anything else while burning your disc. (not even surf this site) watever resources you are using to do other stuff is being taken away from the burning process. once you use too much resources, the pc starts to use your hard drive for ram (temporary memory). your hard drive is MUCH slower than ram, and therefore you get a messed up cd.

the only other possibility is that your mp3's are too high quality for the car's radio to read. if your music is recorded at 320kbps bitrate, that might be your problem. most mp3 players max out at 256kbps bitrate for song play.
to check this right click properties on the file and see what it says for id2/3 tag. it should say the bitrate somewhere in there.

 

i have a stock sound system and it plays my mp3's on my cd just fine. i have it on a memorex cdr(1 time burn) and the songs vary in quality from 128k to 320k. i burn it using recordnow, one of the programs that came with my pc.

 

I got home and tried burning at 8X instead of 48X just for the hell of it and it works.


Wrong I got 2gig of RAM with a Core 2 CPU.

 

a lot of things can come in play.

Quality of your CD-R's, your CD Burner, and of course comp specs.

 

Regardless of what specs your pc has, you have found the root source of the problem, now you have to figure out which variable is making your cd's mess up.

it could be a hunderd things, i am sure you will zero it down rather quickly.
good luck! im glad i could help.

 

Never had a problem, just don't burn them at full speed.

 

Actually I tried that before I read your post lol (thanks for the responding tho), but ya I know what's the issue my DVD-RW is reading PIO mode UDMA. (If you guys know what I am talking about lol)
