Hello,I just subscribed to the pc-audio mailing list today, and just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Mike. I live in the western New York area, Rochester, NY. to be exact. Although I have good computer skills, I’m no computer geek. I serve as a volunteer dj at a local community college, to which I’m also a student of here in Rochester. I’m interested in learning about how to burn audio cds, so that I can supplement my existing physical cd library. I'm currently using Windows xp and Windows media player 11. To be completely honest, I've never, ever burnt a cd before in my life, and don't know the first thing about doing that stuff. Sometimes digital technology can be very overwhelming, even for a young person like myself. If any of you have ever done it, could someone give me step-by-step instructions, as to an accessible way to burn audio cds that will play in any cd player, using wmp 11? The screen reader I’m currently using, is Window-eyes 6.1. Basically, I'd like to know how to burn an audio cd in wmp 11 using just the keyboard itself, I'd prefer not to mess with the mouse. Finally, in windows media player 11, I’ve noticed, that in the burn menu, I am given four options for the speed of the burning process:
1.  fastest
2.  fast
3.  medium
4. slow. Is it necessary to adjust the burn speed? And also in the drop-down menu within this same dialog, it says, “add a list of all burned files to the disc in this format. The top-most option in this menu, is .wpl, and it’s selected by default. What does this mean? I'm looking forward to talking with all of you on the list.
Mike
Rochester, NY.
P.S. Just for clairification, are the built-in utility found in Windows xp and windows media player two different programs? Or is the utility part of windows media player. I already know, that windows media player automatically inserts seconds of silence between audio tracks, but is there any way to turn that option off? For example, what if I’m burning an album, which already has seconds of silence between the tracks. Is there any way to prevent the player from inserting silence between tracks when burning?
