I bought a DVD/VCR combo recently (nice symphonic model) that can play 'mp3 cds'. But no matter how I burn a cd with mp3s on it, it does not recognize it.

I found a program online called 'x2cd' that supposedly makes mp3 cds, but it was unsuccessful as well. Is there a 'MP3 CD' standard that I don't know about? Symphonic's website mentions very little about this.

And, if I make this 'mp3 cd', will it work in other mp3-enabled cd players? That would be great, because then I could take 150 or so songs with me on the road on one cd... :)

Never mind, I figured it out: Undocumented in the manual, the mp3's must be 44.1khz and 128bps. Works great now (over 12 hours of music on one CD!)

Thanks
