Media Player - how to retain album folders when burning CDs??

Hiya,

Can anyone help me please?

Upgraded to Media Player 11. I really like the way it automatically groups any songs you have by album.

How can you get it to continue to do this when you burn a CD with it?

e.g when you drag different albums over to your "burn" list- it just creates a huge list of songs. It seems to stop grouping by album.

What I would like is for my cd full of mp3s/wmas to have "album folders", e.g. each album in its own folder on the cd, rather than just a huge list of songs.

Can media player help me do this???

    It's surprisingly simple - click on the little arrow below the Burn button and select Data CD. To have the files arranged in folders on the disc, click on the arrow once again, choose More Options... and verify that the box marked "Use media information to arrange files in folders on the disc" is filled.
  • You legend! Thanks so much!!!
  • Spooky - I've just had my first attempt at downloading and then burning sone music - and I came on here to ask the very same thing!!

    Cheers Tanglefoot!
