Weird problem with CD players

I burned a cd, but I've been having a very weird problem with it. Everytime I play it in my discman, it gets stuck at 2 min 39 sec, however, when I use any ordinary sound system, it plays perfectly fine. I thought the discman was damaged, but it plays all my other CD's... does someone know what may be happening? :p Why does my discman hate only this disc? :D
Thanks in advance :)
PS.: I did use the search engine ;) |

| Hmm. What speed are you burning the disc at and what program are you using to burn it? Could be that the media can't handle a higher burn speed and on a discman (which can be flakey sometimes) it might be going "What the..?" when it comes to a certain point where the burn might be a bit shakey. Some cheap car stereo systems seem to be like this too, as I have unfortunately found out with some of my burns :/ |

Thats bollox
Its the cd-r's u r using, discmans seem to be very sensitive, and mine wont seem to play certain 700mb cds. Very odd.
So i alaywas get high qaulity cd-r's like trax data or verbatim for audio stuff :)
Hope that helps, but i think its yr cds u use mate :D |

It doesnt matter wot speed u burn them at, a lot of walkmans wont even detect crap cds, so u have to use decent ones, not the crappy unlabelled crap i used to use :D |

I have seen this problem many times as well. I don't think it is the burn speed either. Its not the CD because when I add it to the tracklist it will only show the shortened time, even though the Mbs are much bigger. Maybe it is a software problem, I usually use Easy CD creater. I think some Mp3s have problems when converting.
The latest PVD set from Nova969, I got it off of Djmixes2k and the MP3 is fine, but when I try to put it on a CD I can only get 41 minutes.
What I have done in the past is if it cuts out very near the beginning I will split the MP3 remove the first 5 minutes or so and then bring it back together. |

| if your files mean a lot to you, buy quality stuff. For a CD you burn to listen to for a week, get cheap ass CD's :) |

| I think it's just the nature of cdr's not being compatible with all cd lpayers including Discmans, regardless of whether they're cheap or not. I've got a cd player that doesn't read some burnt Verbatim discs that well. |
