I did it: Started with .wav files and finished with the same results. CDA
files that say they are shortcuts. And a fourth coaster--though I haven't
tried it on a CD player yet.

Thanks Barry,
When I pressed insert plus shift plus t while playing a file, winamp says
nothing. That could be a matter of running the correct jaws scripts.
Two things that might matter here: Attempting to create an audio CD, the
source files are MP3 files of various rates. The burning program (Burn
Aware Free) says it'll convert mp3's to CDA's. The resulting files on the
CD are CDA files, but only 1KB and perport to be shortcuts. I moved the
source files away from where the shortcuts might find 'em and they still
play.
I have now converted the source files to .wav and all looks OK. I'll try
burning again. Here comes my fourth coaster to complete a set of four.

Hi Howard,
I don't know anything about the program in question, but make the
following comments.
Whenever you look at any audio CD in Windows Explorer, you will only see
the .cda files. That is why you can't just copy files from
an audio CD to your hard drive. You need to use a CD ripper for that, so
everything up to that point is as expected.
To try to determine why the CD won't play in another CD player, when
playing a track in Winamp, press Insert+shift+t and check the
detail. If the Sample rate is not 44 kHz, then that could be your
problem.
Regards,
Barry Chapman

Hi folks,
My system is Windows XP SP3 and JAWS 11. I'm using Burn Aware Free
trying
to burn a music CD.
I go down the list of files and add each of them (35) to the New
Compilation
screen. Then I go back to the first screen that shows the drive letter,
speed (Iselected slowest), and list of files in the compilation. I have
to
select all files then Burn. A box on this screen shows the space and
time
used and remaining. I hit Burn and it runs for quite a long time--maybe
15
minutes--jaws announcing up to 100% for each track. When it's finished,
it
dings and ejects the CD.
Now when I try to play the CD--using Winamp 5.621--it plays fine. When I
look at the CD in My Computer or Windows Explorer, all the files are CDA
and
only 1KB and called shortcuts. When I take the CD to a different CD
player,
it's empty.
Anybody know what step I'm missing?
Thanks
Howard
