Hey all i have finally learned how to burn cue files using nero and also making up cue files. but my problem is this. how do u get the track names and performer names onto the cd. when i burn the cue fils all it has is track 1.cda rack 2.cda etc. i want to get the names that i have entered in the cue file to sho up onto the cd. thats one of the reasons to burn a cue file is to know what song u are listening too. anyway any advice will be greatly appreciated. thank u ;)

Re: Please help using nero

Most .cue sheets include the title and artist already, if not, just use the same format and enter the details yourself.

If you want both to show up on your car stereo for example you'll need to enter the text on the same line, just delete all the 'performer' lines.

I have done that already, but it wont show up on my computer when i play it through i tune or wimamp. is that normal? do i need to use it in a car stereo or something different for it to show up? cause what i want to do is copy the cd back onto my computer and put it back on my ipod to listen to.;)

Re: Please help using nero

Winamp will only show tracks listed as 'CDA Track1', or something similar to this from the disc you created. If then opened in Nero it will show the track names.

The only reason I use .cues are for use in car stereos or any other player that supports disc info.

No idea about iPods.

Re: Please help using nero

Providing all the information on the .cue sheet points to the Mp3 file, open Nero, from the top menus select 'burn image', then choose the required .cue sheet (it'll take a minute or so to open up and display the details), then hit burn once finished. Easy as.

Re: Please help using nero

wow thanks i will have to try it :) does the cue sheet burn require the 2 second pause between tracks?

#566210Post 12 of 23

Re: Please help using nero

You'll still have the option before burning the CD to choose 'track-at-once', 'burn speeds', etc.

Re: Please help using nero

if you use a cue file, you need to edit the cue file in notepad to get the track names on each track. otherwise, you can manually split the file with nero and right-click each track and set the track names from the gui

#566289Post 15 of 23

Re: Please help using nero

If you don't use a cue file then right click the name of the file in the burn window and select 'Properties'. Then edit your information from there.

Re: Please help using nero

Is this what your looking for?

[QUOTE]How to use a cuesheet

There are many ways and programs to get a cuesheet but you can make it by creating a .txt file as well and that's what will be explained in this thread.

Open Notepad to do it. Normally in the first line you type the info about the performer of the set/CD you do the cuesheet for but it is no essential info as burning the CD will work without it. For a kiss set it could look like this:

PERFORMER "John Digweed"

The next line is used for the name of the set. This line is also not essential but informative.

TITLE "Kiss 100 FM John Digweed (June 13, 2004)"

Now comes the third and important line, the filename. With this line you tell the burning program what the name of the set and the format (MP3 or WAV) is. Line three of your cuesheet looks like this now: (use the filename like you stored it on your hard disc)

FILE "Kiss 100 FM John Digweed (June 13, 2004).mp3" MP3

That?s the header of a cuesheet. All in all it looks now like this:

PERFORMER "John Digweed" TITLE "Kiss 100 FM John Digweed (June 13, 2004)" FILE "Kiss 100 FM John Digweed (June 13, 2004).mp3" MP3

Now we care for the tracks. Normally, when I do a cuesheet I listen to the set/CD and write the times down when a new track enters. The syntax for a track in the cuesheet should look like this:

TRACK 01 AUDIO TITLE "Track 1" INDEX 01 00:00:00

TRACK 01 AUDIO <----- is an information for your burning program

TITLE "Track 1" <----- Here you can enter the name of the track. The effect is that CD-players which are able to display CD-text show the names entered here.

INDEX 01 00:00:00 <------ INDEX 01 tells the burning program that the index is 01. Normally only one index is used to burn a CD because otherwise your burning program will ask you to enter a new CD as for example INDEX 02 will tell the burning program to write another project.

00:00:00 <----- this line tells the burning program when the track starts. This example is for track one so it starts in the beginning.

Now you simply add all tracks of the set and enter the tracktimes and names if you like to and the complete cuesheet could look like this:

PERFORMER "John Digweed" TITLE "Kiss 100 FM John Digweed (June 13, 2004)" FILE " Kiss 100 FM John Digweed (June 13, 2004).mp3" MP3 TRACK 01 AUDIO TITLE "Track 1" INDEX 01 00:00:00 TRACK 02 AUDIO TITLE "Track 2" INDEX 01 06:12:00 TRACK 03 AUDIO TITLE " Track 3" INDEX 01 10:12:00 TRACK 04 AUDIO TITLE " Track 4" INDEX 01 17:40:00 TRACK 05 AUDIO TITLE " Track 5? INDEX 01 26:42:00 TRACK 06 AUDIO TITLE " Track 6" INDEX 01 33:42:00 TRACK 07 AUDIO TITLE "Track 7" INDEX 01 41:10:00

After you are finished, save the .txt-file and rename the ending afterwards to .cue. Open the burning program you use and take care the cuesheet and the set are in the same folder and follow the instructions of your burning program manual how to burn a CD using a cuesheet.[/QUOTE]

Re: Please help using nero

having problems with cue. if anyone can help. i try to load the cue file into nero but it is taking a long time and when i open windows task manager it is showing that nero is not responding.

any help?

Re: Please help using nero

I used to use [URL="http://www.dcsoft.com/products/cdrcue/"]this[/URL] back when it was free. It's convenient: load an mp3 into the program, play the mp3 from within the program, and you can click on a button or use a short-cut to insert cue points whenever you hear the tracks being mixed in.

Personally I prefer using cdrwin for burning cuesheets and unmixed tracks that I want sequenced together without any gaps. Nero still burnt (last I used it) tracks with a split second gap if they were unmixed. I only use Nero for backing up data.

keep waiting...I used to think it was the same thing, then I just let it sit there and it eventually would respond and be ready to go...just apparently takes a while to load I guess (unless you have a slow computer then it would really take a while...)
