Advice for burning your own CDs and DVDs

If you are ordering CDR or DVDR as blank discs to burn yourself – please follow the advice below:

1) Ensure your CD/DVD Drive has the latest firmware
2) Make sure you order a sample discs from us to make sure you have no compatibility problems. Our customers very rarely have problems but DVD+R discs on MAC machines have caused problems. We now only supply DVD-R discs.
3) Burn CDR at a maximum speed of 16x even if your drive offers higher speeds
4) Burn DVD-R discs at a maximum speed of 4x even if your drive offers higher speeds

By following this advice you should have very few, if any, failed burns. If you find you are getting lots of problems – contact us for advice.

Can you add my track names and codes to the CD?

Yes. If you would like all your track names and ISRC codes embedded then you will either need to send a master CD or DDP image with that data embedded already or choose our WAV to CD service with ISRC/CD-text option. Our duplicators will copy the data to each of your discs.

Please be aware of the following:

CD-Text and ISRC is mainly designed for professional audio equipment and broadcasters to track royalties.

Most software on PCs and MACs does NOT read the CD-Text that is embedded in the disc but instead uses “Gracenote”. CDs can be submitted to the Gracenote database which works to identify CDs by the track lengths. You can do this yourself from within iTunes or other music players. Google “submit tracks to gracenote” to find articles explaining how.

If you pay for CD-Text service or send a master discs with embedded CD-Text you will still need to submit to gracenote if you wish iTunes / Windows Media player and other software to display the data.

How do I send you my music, video or data files for duplication?
