How do I make an audio CD using a file format that my recording software doesn support?
Another common CD-ROM error involves using audio file formats that your CD recording program doesn’t support. The WMA (Windows Media Audio) lossless format, which uses just the right amount of compression to retain the high fidelity of an audio file, is particularly incompatible with most CD burning programs, such as Sonic RecordNow!. As soon as you load an unsupported audio file, you’ll see an Invalid Media error. The solution is to convert unsupported files before you try burning them to CD. Try Illustrate’s dBpowerAMP Music Converter (www.dbpoweramp.com); it’s an easy-to-use program that will batch convert most common audio files.
