Mixed CD? Audio & Data...

[MiXiT-G]

I want to burn a cd that can be played on any player but also contains a JPEG file for viewing on a computer.

I'm using nero and it does have a mixed mode which should allow me to do so but so far only the pic is is being burnt.

Do i need to adjust my settings?

Thanks

I don't use Nero (only gets worse with every new release...), but I'm sure that there is an option to burn "CD-Extra" disks, which is what you want (first session audio, second session data). Actually you can even burn several audio tracks and one last data track in the same session, but such a CD could be harmful for some old CD players which will try to playback the data track as it would be an audio one.

Thankyou.. works like a charm.

I though in Mixed Mode (aka. "Don't play track one" format), the data track needed to be first.

CD-Extra/Cd-Enhanced uses multisession, since audio players only play the first (Audio) session, and multisession computer drives (all but a few obsolete 1x and 2x models) should access the second (data) session.

The audio tracks (of CD Extra) can normally be played by a CD-Player program on a computer, but if there's space, it's handy to put them in the data session as well, using whatever compression you prefer - or plain WAV files if there's room!

Yeah whatever...CD extra did the trick in one session, thats all i need to know.

I did notice there were some data files that i didnt put there...
