Hi

I've burnt my first CD using waveburner. I then imported it into itunes, but none of the CD text came with it...

Did I miss something? I have watched the full WB tutorial and read the manual, but they only talk about text appearing in the LCD screen of a CD player, not how to have your track names recognised by itunes.

Any ideas? (I think they are good track names, and deserve to rise higher than their humble numerical beginnings)

:)

Hi Hamish,

AFAIK iTunes doesn't actually read CD Text from a CD, but it can write it!

I believe iTunes uses an online database to collect CD text and list track names.

From the Advanced menu in iTunes you can 'Submit CD Track names'. This may be the only way to get iTunes to recognize your CD on other iTunes accounts. Perhaps you could also submit the names to the Gracenote database... but it's not something I've ever investigated.

:)
