makecd - audio cd out of mp3?
is it possible to burn audio cd using mp3 as source?
or do mp3s have to be converted to some other format? is it possible ripping audio cd making mp3 in amigaos? //edit: oops, wrong forum! :D can someone fix thix, please? |
MakeCD can support MP3 through mpega.library. I've used SecondSpin in the past for cd to mp3 encoding.

thx, have mpega.library installed. is there any tutorial about how i can make audiocd from mp3?
and a tutorial for installation of secondspin and lame as well? seems to be complicated, i read. |
Been quite a while since I did this, but I think you just add the MP3 files as audio tracks. As I recall, I could only get this to work with the older mpega.library. The newer libmad-based mpega.library didn't work for me.
|
can i put this older version into makecd folder so it uses that one instead of the one installed in libs:?
//edit: if i enter a mp3 file as a new audio track and want to write the track, it says something like: "ISO-Image ... CD-R-Track ... Blocksize 2048 Bytes". in german, so i tried translating important bits. how can i change this blocksize to 2048 bytes? |

that's why i'm looking for a step by step tutorial, preferred with screenshots.
because i'm not sure at all, i'm totally new and noob regarding makecd burning. |

Using the warpup version of mpega.library, I could burn mp3's as audio cds on the fly using MakeCD. I think I used to burn at 6x on my 8x scsi device connected to A4000T's scsi port. Don't remember if it was the scsi bus limiting the speed or cpu not being fast enough to convert mp3 to cd audio.
Using the 68k version of mpega.library (or was it lame?) will probably require you to convert mp3s to aiff or wav before the burning process starts. |

The Play button can be used if you want to make sure mp3 is decoded correctly. Basically you just could hit the "Write tracks" button then, but if you want to burn with DAO instead of TAO, you could check Advanced Options. I don't think there was much more to do... used to burn several audio cd:s on my 060 Amiga back then. Or if your machine isn't beefy enough for on the fly decoding, you could try to use image files in Track Options -> Target... maybe it would decode mp3 to some raw audio data first? Can't remember for sure. |
thx, this drag and drop worked. the other solution (track options - target) i tried yesterday, didn't work.
i just burnt my first cd using mp3 as source. but there seems to be more tweaking to be done i assume. tracks are playing, but there are ugly and LOUD audio glitches and missing seconds in music playback. drive/makecd can't be the problem, i assume. because i copied >50 audio cds last week without problem. they all work without any glitches or missing seconds. so probably the problem located at mp3 transfer. |
Are you sure your CD burner supports BURN-Proof operation? It sounds like the writing is corrupted, possibly because it can't write and decode in real-time quickly enough. Decoding MP3s is far more processor-orientated than copying raw data, and it's likely you can't go any more than 1x write speed if you're doing it on the fly - and that's with an 060.

are you able to recall the settings you have made?
so that i would be able to copy them? |

And are you using IDE or SCSI? SCSI makes things wayyyy more smooth when talking about burning :)

Found a image with it on, I screen grabbed the Settings page of my MakeCD settings.

in addition i'll reduce write speed to 1x. just in case. |
In old times audio cd:s were recommended to be burned in 1x in any case for the best results...
Also if you want the best possible quality, you could use FPU version of the mpega.library (if you have FPU in your machine). It's slightly slower than the standard integer version, but provides more accurate decoding which might be wanted for this kind of stuff. |
