Windows shows files as CDA's, not CDG's
I'm stumped. The MicroStudio software has no problem playing the karaoke files on my hard drive, but when I burn them to an MTU certified CD-R, using a certified external drive, they show up as CDA's on my disc, not CDG's.
Thus, you can only play audio and not video. Any ideas? |

When you click on Write Disc when the next window pops up make sure that the Karaoke button is green. If the Audio button is green you won't get the lyrics.
That's the only thing I can think of at the moment. |

I've done that, and it makes no difference.
This is what's really puzzling to me. If I just drag and drop the BIN files to the CD-R, and just burn it using Windows, the BIN files stay intact, and I can play them off the CD-R with full audio and video. Unfortunately that doesn't work well if your local karaoke bar has a more stereo-like machine, instead of the computerized type. The machine at my favorite bar needs to see track numbers. But when I burn it using MicroStudio, inexplicably the files are converted to CDA form (CD Audio). Mind you, this isn't the only burning software where I've gotten such results (Power CD + G Burner yields the same result). Any other ideas? |

Try doing a disc copy with a cdg disc, and see if the results are the same. If it is, then it would indicate it's posibly a burner problem.
When you say a "certified burner" did the burner come from MTU? |

I don't have any CDG discs, so that's not possible. Yes, I just got the burner from MTU yesterday.

Has Microsoft changed?
Microsoft Windows, at least the versions I have owned, doesn't show cdg disc tracks as cdg. It always shows them as cda. I'm not sure I understand the issue. I guess I'm ready to learn if someone else has had different experience.
They play with graphics after you burn the disc, right? You might run into compatibility issues with different clubs' equipment, but I don't think it will have anything to do with whether Windows calls the contents of a cd "cda" Windows won't call the tracks on a Karaoke disc "cdg" . |
