Hi,
I’ve gone through the manual and looked at a few video tutorials … but still need some help and advice please on how best to use Wavelab Pro 9.5 to create a Master CD.
My Objective: To create a mastered CD image (e.g. iso) so I can burn copies of my CDs in-house with all the relevant metadata showing up when people play it in iTunes, Windows Media Player or a car stereo.
Going from Wavelab Elements to Wavelab Pro has helped a lot with the workflow which is now as follows:
- Create Montage > Add Metadata > Add CD Text > burn to CD Image (format: DDP) … but then I’m stuck
Creating the DDP image creates the following files:
- CDTEXT.BIN
- CHECKSUM.MD5
- DDPID
- DDPMS
- IMAGE.DAT
- PQDESCR
What do all these files do?
What software is recommended for buring the actual CD with Meta Data and CD Text?
Regarding CD Text
Does the CD Text get added automatically to the DDP image or do I need to do an additional step or burn session to add CD Text?
Getting iTunes & Windows Media Player to show the correct album info?
This may be out of the scope of Wavelab but I’m strugglining to get itunes and windows media player to recognise the correct CD information. For Gracenote I’ve re-submitted the info and for All Music Guide I’ve sent them corrected info … but for some reason the albums are still coming up incorrectly (as different albums). So I was wondering if there was something in Wavelab and the MetaData settings that might help.
Sorry for all the questions. I’ve been trying to figure this all out for a couple of weeks now with no progress. Your help and insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Nick
