I've been trying to understand how to get my
burned audio CDs to have
the "Artist", "Album" and "Song" titles show up in my CD
Player. If I
put a commercial CD in my drive it does, indeed, show the artist name,
album title and track names in "CD Player".
Have you checked though how this information is obtained? Your player
may be checking the CD agains a CDDB data base in order to obtain that
info. (Very few commercial CDs actually include CD-Text)
Does my burner not support this? It is an inexpensive burner but the
specs on ASUS's site say it supports the following "Disk Formats":
CD-DA, CD-ROM, CD-ROM/XA, Photo CD, Mixed Mode CD-ROM, CD-I, CD-Extra,
CD-Text, Video CD, DVCD, Bootable CD
Just because it supports reading CD-Text, doesn't mean it supports
writing CD-Text (although it very well may). Also, you will generally
have better success writing CDs like this in RAW mode, if your burner
supports it.
If you must buy a different CD burner in order to get the features you
want, I would recommend Plextor.
