hey guys

is anyone having problems playing CD burned with iTunes in car CD players? If i burn the same set of songs with Toast, i have no problems whatsoever, but with iTunes if i try to skip ahead tracks (or back track) the player will hang at the beginning of the track and never actually play it.... or sometimes it starts playing but will pause for a split second (like when you are listening to internet radio and it has to rebuffer). If i burn a CD with Toast, i don't have any of these problems... but i have encountered the same results with different car stereos, which makes me think maybe its an iTunes problem.... its been like this since i started using iTunes...

i use osx 10.1.3 with an QPS QueFire 24x/10x/40x CD-RW ... i haven't tried using other burners, so maybe its the burner... but has anyone else had problems like this.

in my computer and regular stereo, all CDs play fine no matter which program i used.... it only happens in car stereos.

Did you know that one song is work from 1800 people? Apple makes iPod an mp3player. You buy your mp3 from the recordlabel. :)
 
I've had the same problem.

Here's one more data point. I've burned a bunch of CDs, only one had this problem. So, I re-ripped the original songs, and burned a new CD. It has the same problem, although I think the skips are in different places. Is this just a coincidence? or could it be related to the actual music? (doesn't seem likely.)

I agree with testuser. I was planning to try burning it again, at a slower speed, to see if that helps.

I'll let you know if it helps (if I ever get the time to try it).

iTunes allows for very little space between songs. I'm not sure this is a setting and I can't check at the moment, but perhaps it has something to do with that?
 
You can set the number of seconds between tracks in the iTunes preferences, under the Burning tab. I don't think the problem is related to that.
