Default Problems with MP3 CDs??

Does anyone have problems when they burn mp3 CDs? I burn them just fine but for some reason the mp3 player in the car doesn't play all the songs on my cd. I burn multiple mp3 albums (in folders) onto the cd but it'll cut out a few tracks from each album. Anyone else have this problem?? Any suggestions? I'm using a program called Burn4Free to burn my mp3 cds

nope works for me... what speed did you burn the cdr's at? I had that issue with some burned cd in my moms car. I had to burn the disk again at a lower speed. (like 12-16x)

did u actually put the mp3 in different folders? if u did and u burned it then the player is only playin from ur root files. if u want to play those mp3s in the folder u will have to select the folders. the only way to fix it is by placing all the mp3s on the cd without dividing them up in folders. hope that solves ur problems if not hopefully someone else with have a better answer.
