Terminology

I am not clear about what you mean. If you are talking about mp3+g files, compressed files that have graphics, then I cannot help you. I don't have experience with them.

If you are wanting to turn mp3 audio files into cdg files with karaoke or other graphics:

1. Convert mp3s into wave files.
2. Using KPRO software create necessary cdg files.

If you want non-karaoke selections on the same disc as cdg karaoke selections:

You have to somehow convert your mp3s to cdg. There are two ways.

1. The above method using KPRO (Even if you do not want it for Karaoke-I used the Superman theme at a luncheon and I used the same disc for karaoke songs and non-karaoke songs. I just used KPRO. I Swept the Lyrics "Superman" on the wave file and created the CDG file. Since one often has to Cue a track, it's nice to see the title sometimes.)

2. Another way to create a CDG file from an mp3.
a. Somehow create a disc with the mp3
b. Using Microstudio and a compliant burner, extract the desired track as a cdg file. Even though one doesn't see any graphics, I discovered that Microstudio will treat these files as if they were the more conventional cdg files with visible graphics.

Now with all your songs, karaoke and non-karaoke ready as cdg files, use Microstudio and a compliant burner to burn cdg audio discs.

I don't know your area of experience, and it may be that you still need to ask some things. But I didn't want to spend the whole day imagining that you needed to hear something that you already knew. Feel free to ask for more clarification.
