Playing large mp3s files in car mp3 player Hi, I am fully aware of cue files to split large mp3 files into audio cd types with tracks. I have some large mp3 files which when listening on my comp are fine cos I can skip through them using my player, eg. winamp. But when I create a cd of mp3 files for my car, the track search on my player is fairly gash so skipping through a 2 hour mp3 set whilst driving! lol can be fairly monotonous!! I was just wondering if theres anyway to create points/track markers within an mp3 file without splitting a set into its individual tracks and having annoying gaps when it changs between them?!
Dint think so... thats just gay. Why not..... it wouldnt be so bad just recording em to audio format but then a 2 hour set has to be across 2 cds!!! Teh gay!
NOT ONLY do you want free music, NOT ONLY do you want it a 10th the size of what it actually should be, you ALSO want a goodmans MP3 cd player to have an advanced skip facility for compressed audio! sssssssssshhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeessssssssssshhhhhhhhh kids these days.
LOL. fair point. But with the greater technology comes greater demands, I was happy listening to cds in my car before mp3s were about. Then they brought us the car cd/mp3 player, so damn right i wanna listen to mp3s as I cant get most of it on cd. And as most decent sets are over the 80min mark, I have to leave them in mp3 format and purely for safety reasons i dont wanna have to keep my thumb on forward skip for 10 miles just to get to the energertic part of the set!
There's a top tip for future in-Car MP3 player Owners : Demo the unit in the shop - see what the forward skip function is like
Thats the lines I was thinking along too..... but it seems not. If its not possible at the minute surely it wouldnt be too hard to facilitate?
ok new approach. So I cant write in track markers to the mp3 so.......... if I split the set up into individual mp3s for each track, can then stick them on a cd and get it to play seemlessly? If i can..... Can anyone recommend some software to do the splitting??
Yes : 2 ways : Create a que file and use Nero to burn it as a Audio CD OR Use Soundforge to split the MP3 then use Nero to burn the individual tracks it creates without gaps THe Soundforge way, here's Essay Boy's extremely helpful Guide http://www.recess.co.uk/How2recmix.html
