Plextor 708A CD-TEXT problem

I tried Nero 6 and Roxio 6. Even though the burned CDs indicate CD-TEXT
when played on Plextor 708A (Nero 6 - Extras - Save Tracks), I don't see
CD-TEXT on my Pioneer CD-Player (Elite PD-F27).

I tried the same thing on a Samsung CD-R/RW and no problems; CD-TEXT is
visible on My Pioneer CD with no issues.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks.

This CD Text is problem by itself. Most CD Players don't show it even if it
is burned on CD. Who knows, why...i guess standard for this is not exactly
unique so burners sort it out differently...

Dude

are you reading my mail or are half on a pipe.

I agree with you...(i hope you mean 3W, not me).
Two different CD burners, two different CD Text burned. It can happen that
one shows, other doesn't. It won't be the first time. My friend has car
palyer, which can show CD Text, but no matter which burner it's used, CD
Text is showed only if pressed CD is inserted. So, i guess you're lucky to
have it with first burner. And there's not hing really that can be done
here, except continue to use old drive to burn Audio CD's.
Remember that CD Text is invented and owned by Sony, and as such they
require a fee. So, some companies re-create it a bit in order to get free
version of CD Text and so they don't need to pay to Sony. It's same as
mp3PRO - it never became popular (and it never will) just because they
require a fee, while mp3 (normal) is free. It's becasue some of them are too
greedy.
This is same reason why most pressed CD's still doesn't contain CD Text.
It's because they would have to pay license fee to Sony, and so they rather
omit it. CD's would then be even more expensive. (even as they are, i don't
buy any of them).
Note that Philips (as creator and owner of CD) still gets a license fee of
EVERY cd - pressed or blank...

I have the same Plextor drive and have no problems with CDtext showing up on
either my panasonic dvd plyer or my car stereo JVC.

Thanks

Dude,

I was responding to Sleeperman, which is why his post was quoted, and not
yours.

True. My apollogies. You're more or less right. However, since most of folks
now buys DVD as CD player, this changes a bit. But at the end still the most
deciding part of it is license fee....unfortunately. When it comes to Sony,
they won't change it's mind for nothing. Remember that they are the only one
who invented their own memory card for digital cameras. They can afford it.
And they are so big, that they are (kinda) succesfull. But they are still
assholes in this regard.

Try burning CD-Text with another program... Feurio is a free demo...

I tried 3 different ones: Nero, Roxio and what came with the Samsung CD-R -
Sonic RecordNow. Same result in every case.

Thanks anyhow.
