InCD software is used to burn your own DVD & CD's.\n\nIf Windows Media Player is not playing your DVD, then you should check if you have the latest version of Media player and have the correct decoders.

Close any instances of older versions of Windows Media Player if you have those running.  Also make sure you have enough disk space to install the program.  I'm not sure, but you might also have to be connected to the internet during the installation.  Make sure your connection is not dropping.

Have you read the media player's help line carefully.  I do this often and have no problem with it.  Also be sure to have the latest version of media player.  You might want to get the burning program from Nero and give it a try.  I like it and use it for DVD recording.  If you don't have winsown XP then I may not be able to help you.  be sure to read the help line very crwefully.

You add the songs to windows media player, The you make a playlist and click copy to CD or device,insert the blank disc and click copy. Works good enough for me.

What about the recording software? Does it show you how much space is left on the CD? \n\nMaybe there have been files recorded to the CD and later got deleted. \nIf you delete files from a CD then the space those files occupied stays lost.  \nYou would need to have a CD-RW and would have to format the CD-RW to create new recording space on there to put new stuff on the CD-RW.

I would have to say, Microsoft's Windows media player, has all the features I need, for music and videos. It also lets me burn all my music.\n I also use Sony's SonicStage, shich is also excellent for making up folders etc.

And if your trying to copy rented DVD's, it would take me an hour to explain how to do it. But Windows Media Player will not work. And it would take me another hour to explain why doing it is wrong.

I usually use Windows Media Player. Just open it and resave it differently. Remember, making a file a smaller size often results in loss of quality.

Format it, if it's a CD-RW.  If it's a CD-R, you can't change it once you burned it the first time.

If you have Windows Media Player 10.  You can burn both Data & Audio CDs using that program.  It's free and you can get it at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/download/download.aspx\n\nIf you can't burn the CD, make sure that you have a CD Writer installed in your computer.  If it is not, they run pretty cheap now adays.  You can get them at a PC Recycle store if you want.\nAlso, if you do have a CD writer, make sure you have the correct driver's installed.

Hi J.E.\n\nI had a similar problem a while back. I was trying to completely uninstall Windows Media Player but I couldn't.  It turns out that this isn't possible.  Microsoft claims that Windows Media Player cannot be completely removed because it's a feature of the operating system.\n\nYou can however, roll back to a different version of the player.  For instructions on how to do this, take a look at the first question; 'How do I uninstall the Player', on the Windows Media Player FAQ, located at:\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/faq/installation.mspx

In Windows Media Player 10 (which is the newest) there is a Burn section, when you open it on the right top corner there is a drop down menu where you can choose Audio or Data. Data will leave the format of your music as it is. You wellcome

most cd burning programmes will do this for you automatically.\nwindows media player does anyway.

What do you mean by manually?  A CD has to be finalised in order to work at all, the only time you wouldn't finalise is if you intended to add data to the disc at a later time, but of course the disc wouldn't work till its all done.\n\nJust get all your data together and burn it once you're ready to fill it up.
