Audio Cd Tips; Before You Begin Creating Discs - HP SR5505F - Compaq Presario - 1 GB RAM Getting Started Manual

CyberLink Power2Go allows you to create closed-session or multisession CDs and DVDs.
For closed-session CDs and DVDs, you must record or copy all files on one disc in one
recording session. For multisession CDs and DVDs, you can record or copy files in several
sessions until the disc is filled or until you close the session.
NOTE: Music files can be recorded repeatedly on a rewritable CD-RW disc, but all
previously recorded files must be erased first. CD-R discs cannot be erased.

Audio CD tips

When recording music files, it is important to note that:
As you add music files in the recording session, the software calculates and displays
the amount of recording time that is available to record additional music files. If you
try to record more than a standard CD can hold, a message opens warning you that
all the tracks may not fit on the disc.
If the recording fails, manually select a slower recording speed, if available, each time
you make a recording. Refer to the Help menu in the selected software program
for more information about selecting a slower recording speed.
If you change the write speed of the recording, run a Write Simulation test to verify
that the burner can burn to the disc at the selected speed without causing recording
errors.
You can select the "Enable buffer underrun protection" option when burning a disc to
ensure that data is written to disc without interruption. An interruption in data can
result in an unusable disc.
You can select the "Verify recorded data" option to compare recorded data to the
source data to ensure accurate burning.
