Nero Vision is meant for videos, not audio. If you're going to be buring audio, make sure you use Nero Express and choose music and then audio cd. Not sure about the version of Nero you're using so it might be different on your end.
Everything is being done in Nero Express, not Nero Vision.
I have discovered one way around the problem but this
only means I'm doing something wrong.
At the 'add screen' to make an audio cd three folders are
in blue:
Desktop
My Documents
My music
These can be opened to display files.
How do I add my regular folder to the blue group
since that is the only way Nero will apparently open it?
As a workaround, I dragged my one file to burn to
the desktop (blue highlight on the add screen)
clicked on desktop folder in the add screen and it opened.
If the folder contents of c: are clicked on, that
folder will appear and in _black_ and does nothing.
I tried to drag the whole directory to the blue area
but that failed.
So what's the answer? Are the 3 folders marked in blue
Desktop, My Documents etc all that can be accessed
on the add screen?
Like I said, I must be doing something wrong. I just
don't know what it is.
I just wanted to make sure you were using the right program because when you posted the first time, you said you were using Nero Vision but when I read the steps you did in the first post, it sounded more like you did it in Nero Express. So my bad.
I am curious though, what version of Nero Express are you using?
Is there some fallback version that everyone is happy with?
If there are 3 highlighted folders/directories in
blue, how can I add more folders/directories to
that group?
I'm used to using B's Recorder Gold from my Sony
CDROM for audio. That is drag and drop. That prog.
only works with the Sony though.
I see now where my syntax was confusing. Nero is bloatware.
I'd like to find something less confusing in the freeware
market. But the cd functions of Nero should at least work.
I haven't used Nero 6 in ages and couldn't remember what it exactly looked like so I went ahead and install it to see what you were talking about.
The group you see highlighted in blue, act as a placeholders (links) for certain parts of the computer and cannot be modify. What you need to do is remember where you stored the wave files. When you have that in mind, go to where it says location on the top. Click the drop down box and go to the folder where you have the wave files stored. When you got the folder selected, you should see the wave files appear on the right side of the window. Select all of the wave files and click add. It will then analyze the files and add it to the main Nero Express window. When that's done click finish. That will return you to the main Nero Express window. Click next and setup your burner. You're now set to go.
If you don't feel like doing it that way you can always do a drag and drop. To do that, open the the folder where you have all your waves file stored and set it to the side of the screen so you can still see it. Open Nero Express and set it up to do audio CD of course. When you come to the next page, click the add box. When another window opens up, go to the folder you had set aside and select all the wave files; drag those files to the right side (not the left side because that's just a placeholder) of the window that Nero Express opened. Make sure you select all the wave files by highlighting them, click add. Let it go through the analyze process and click finish. The rest you can figure out.
Repeating the problem: when I find the folder with
the stuff in it, it won't open. If I simply
select the whole folder it tries to write everything
to a file and then shows that it's too big to fit on a disk.
