I keep getting this error anytime I try to burn FLAC, WAVpack, or mp3's to an audio CD with Nero:

(from the log - i don't know how much is relevant, so i got most of it)

Anyone know what the deal is with this?

DRM? As in Digital Rights Management?

Are you on Vista?


Of course, error messages often mean something entirely different from what that say.


How about converting the MP3s, FLACs and (what's a WAVpack?) to WAVs manually? Or is WAVpack already WAV?

One day I found... 10 years had got behind me. Next day was worse.

Are you trying to burn a standard audio CD with these files? There's two ways of going at this:

1. Have Nero convert mp3's/WMV's to PCM audio on the fly, creating a regular audio CD
2. Create an MP3/WMV audio cd, which will only play on newer players capable of reading an MP3/WMV CD.

As to number 1, you might want to try converting the MP3's/MV's to WAV before burning to CD. The fewer things you try to do at once, the fewer things can go wrong.

It's working now, but I will keep the convert-to-WAV idea in mind if something goes wrong again. I also haven't tried burning the same CDs that gave me the errors yet (I'm doing one now), but if it screws up again I'll do just that. Thanks much.
