Which burning prog does this?

This is important because the wav is one solid track that is actually
somebody talking. (Not music.) So when listening back if I want to "skip
ahead" to get to a certain point in the lecture where he might make
points I know I might want to get to later, I don't want to have to FF
through the entire thing to find them.

Does anyone know of software that allows me to imbed these "markers"
manually into the original burn?

You're asking for a single level of indexing; a second is available, but
not implemented on all players (and hard to see even if it is present).

Any audio mastering program will do what you want. Some require you to
split the original into separate WAVs. Others let you do the same thing
with a CUE file. Most of the latter (all? - well, all that I've used)
let you do both. In either case, you write DAO with zero intertrack gap.

If you wanted to index within a track, you'd have a different problem.

Nero will do this. In the track properties, you create an index which will
cause the sections of the track to be burned as separate tracks. Then you
remove the 2 second gap between tracks, and the continuity of the music is
retained.

Thanks so much Mike. That set me on the right track.

You can embed index (cue) markers in the wav, but not all burners and
players support the feature. Suggest split the wav into tracks.

Check out CD Wave's Auto-Split:
http://www.homepages.hetnet.nl/~mjmlooijmans/cdwave/

Try CDWAVE - http://www.homepages.hetnet.nl/~mjmlooijmans/cdwave/ which
will split and/or create a cue sheet.
