Most of the Super Audio CDs that are currently being produced will play on regular CD players - but you should check to be sure that the disc is a Hybrid SACD. We have more information on Super Audio on our RCA Living Stereo Super Audio page.

For DVD videos, you'll want to work with DVD-R or DVD+R rather than DVD-RW or DVD+RW because you may not be able to play DVD RW discs in normal DVD players. If you insist to burn to DVD RW, DVD+RW is recommended as DVD-RW is less stable.

Just as you can record CDA format to a 700MB CDR, you can do the same to a 50MB CDR business card. The only limitation is the smaller capacity and the CD drive must be a tray loader with the standard 80 inner ring.

There is a substantial difference between CD-ROM discs and CD-R or CD-RW discs. Because of this, there must be differences in the drives used to read these different types of media. Most currently available CD players are capable of reading CD-R and CD-RW discs, but some older models were only designed for use with commercially produced CD-ROM discs. It may be possible to play some brands of CD-R discs in these older players, but we cannot guarantee success.

Once you've completed the recording process on a home recorder or a PC, a disc will play either in a PC or any other CD player. In blank form, though, PC data discs and CD-R (or CD-RW Audio) audio discs are very different, and it's important to choose the right one.

Most DVD-audio discs are compatible with DVD-Video players. To provide compatibility, most DVD-Audio discs are including Dolby Digital (some also include DTS) audio tracks that satisfy the DVD-Video specification. These tracks are playable on DVD-Video players. A DVD album, which includes these features, will carry the DVD-Audio and DVD-Video logo. However, a DVD-Video player will not recognize and play the ultra-high fidelity PCM and MLP encoded audio tracks on a DVD-Audio disk.

After full installation, some internet browsers need to be closed and reopened in order for RealPlayer to play streaming files. Also, another common problem is Internet speed.

Make sure you are using CD-R disks, not CD-RW disks - very few CD audio players can recognise CD-RW disks at all. Make sure you are burning single session audio CDs with your software - audio CD players won't, for the most part, recognise data CDs or multi-session CDs. If you are burning single-session audio CDs on CD-R media and they still won't play on your audio CD players, then I'm afraid it looks as if your burner just can't produce disks that your audio players can read.

Yes, you can burn MP3s to CD-RW media (discs), however, most normal CD players and some CD-ROMs can't recognize the CD-RW media. This means that you won't be able to listen to the burned CD-RW with your home or car CD player.
