Storing Files on a DVD or CD

Page 64 highlights

When recording music files, it is important to note that: • To play your music CD in a home or car stereo, it needs to be recorded as a music CD in CD Audio (CDA) format, not as a data CD. • You must record all music files in one recording session because RecordNow! closes the CD after recording is complete. Music files can be recorded repeatedly onto a rewritable (CD-RW) disc, but all previously recorded music files must be erased first. • As you add music files in the recording session, RecordNow! calculates and displays the amount of recording time available to record additional music files. • You can't record song titles unless you make an exact copy of a music CD in your collection. • If you try to record more than a standard CD can hold, RecordNow! displays a message warning you that all the tracks may not fit on your disc.

Getting Started Guide
When recording music files, it is important to note that:
To play your music CD in a home or car stereo, it needs to be recorded as a
music CD in CD Audio (CDA) format, not as a data CD.
You must record all music files in one recording session because RecordNow!
closes the CD after recording is complete. Music files can be recorded
repeatedly onto a rewritable (CD-RW) disc, but all previously recorded music
files must be erased first.
As you add music files in the recording session, RecordNow! calculates and
displays the amount of recording time available to record additional music files.
You can’t record song titles unless you make an exact copy of a music CD in
your collection.
If you try to record more than a standard CD can hold, RecordNow! displays a
message warning you that all the tracks may not fit on your disc.
