Slightly different to what you had told me some weeks ago. Now my question is this: i want to burn an audio CD. It is an MP3 file and the playing time is over 3 hours. It is one file so I cannot divide it up. It is the opening cermony of the Paralympics. I can make a data CD and it will play on my computer or a DAISY player, however, just to be awkward, I want to be able to play it on a CD that is like a music centre, e.g. With a radio. Is there any way I can do this?-----Original message----- From: NCBI Support Sent: 28/09/2012, 8:05 am To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vip_students] Creating an audio CD! Hi, If you are like me and have used the handy free software called "Free YouTube To MP3" software and downloaded many songs by this time then youmight like to create a nice audio CD compilation of those songs. The cost inmaking such a disk is only the price of the blank CDS and you can usually fit up to 18 songs per blank CD. In this tutorial I will show you how toburn an audio CD using my favourite CD burning software which is called CDBurner XP instead of perhaps the usual Windows Media player software.You can download a free copy of CD Burner XP from the below link and installit on your computer; http://cdburnerxp.se/downloadsetup.exe Let's get started at organising our new audio CD.1. First download and install the CD Burner XP software from the link aboveand install it.2. Once installed the next thing to do is locate all those audio tracks youdownloaded using the Free YouTube To MP3 software in the past.3. Pick out about 18 of the tracks that you'd like to put onto a CD, to dothis first set your folder view to "List" by using keys, "Alt + V + L". Note, do this when you are in the folder that contains the songs.4. Using the "Control key" held down begin down arrowing through the list ofsongs and each song you come too that you'd like to have on the CD, press the "Spacebar" once to select it. Notes: Ensure that at all times you continue to keep the "Control key" pressed while arrowing through the list of songs and selecting them, when you have finished selecting all of the tracks you can then let go of the control key.5. Now let's copy the tracks we have selected to the clipboard using keys,"Control + C", this should copy the songs to the Windows clipboard and if you are using a screen reader such as jaws it should say, "Copied to clipboard".6. Now it's time to locate the burning software which is called "CD Burner XP" and there should be an icon located on the desktop, press keys "Windows key + M" to move onto the desktop then press "Letter C" till you hear yourscreen reader say "CD Burner XP".7. Press the "Enter key" on the icon CD Burner XP" or double left click withthe mouse if you are a mouse user. This will begin opening up the burning software.Notes: When the software opens up it will contain a list of items which youcan use your arrow keys to move up or down through in order to make yourselection or if you are a mouse user then you will probably see the item weneed to select straight away in the list. The list contains the following items; *. Data Disk, sub menu. *. Video Disk, DVD sub menu. *. Audio Disk, Sub menu. *. Create ISO Disk, Sub menu. *. Copy or grab disk, Sub menu. *. Erase Disk, Sub menu. Notes: Use the up or down arrows to move through this list.8. From the list, choose "Audio CD" and then press the Enter key on it. Waita moment or two for a new dialogue to open up.9. Now press the "Tab key" and you are in a new dialogue screen of choiceswhich contain the following items;*. Main computer tree list which contains all main folders on your computer.*. Files and sub folders list box, here is contained any files or folderscontained within the folder which has been selected from the previous treeview. *. Pressing the "Tab key" three times now will drop you into the blank burning screen which is usually empty till you place some tracks in there for burning. Notice that I mentioned for you to press the tab key threetimes, this was because the previous two items either don't read well with ascreen reader or are of no real importance at this point. 10. Now that we are in the blank burning window it's time to paste in our music tracks we copied earlier, to do this press keys, "Control + V" and give it a few moments for the tracks to be in the burn window.11. Now it's time to place into the CD burn drive of your computer the blankaudio CD. Once this is done and the door closes you may find that after afew seconds a window opens up automatically asking what you want to do with this disk, just use keys "Alt + F4" to close or if a mouse user then closeit with the "X" on the top right of the window. 12. Now let's begin setting up the burn options for our CD, really thereisn't much to set here but the speed which I usually set at "24". To begin press keys, "Control + Letter B" and a burn settings screen opens up. Thiswindow contains the following items; *. Speed combo box. Here we use the arrow keys or mouse users scroll down through the list of available speeds. *. Number of copies, combo box. Choose how many CD copies of this compilation you wish to burn. *. Pause length, A group of radio buttons allowing you to choose how many seconds you want between each track. *. Pause Length combo box box, here you can type in the exact length you want between each track. *. Simulate burning process, checkbox not checked. *. Finalise disk, checkbox not checked. *. Shutdown computer after completion, checkbox not checked. *. Eject disk after burning, checkbox checked. *. Burn disk, Button. Notes: Use the tab key to move to each of the above controls if you are a keyboard user.13. All we need really to set in here is the "burn speed" which is the first control. Tab over to this combo box and using the down arrow, move to "24 x= 4200 kbS" then press the tab key once to the OK button and press the Spacebar to complete.14. All that remains is for you to tab over to the "Burn button" and pressthe Spacebar to begin burning your new CD. Notes: This process takes a while depending on how many songs you are burning, the speed of your CD/DVD burning drive and other factors so bepatient with it and when the process has completed you will know because theCD/DVD drive door will open up and you will have your newly created disk. -- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter.
