Have you ever gotten iTunes to quit placeing their hidden processes into the windows auto startup list? Between that and the QuickTime processes they drive me nuts. Maybe its OK if you use them a lot, I don't know. QT and iTunes both add their hidden processes to windows auto startup list everytime I use them. I went in and set the preferences not to do that stuff and manually deleted the processes from the startup areas. I go to a website that wants QT and boom its back in my startup list. I hate fighting software! MMJ adds itself without telling me during installation but when I delete it manually it stays gone. -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Bryan Carbonnell Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2005 11:48 AM To: Discussion of Hardware and Software issues Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] cd-burning software On 6/28/05, Jon Tydda <Jon.Tydda at alcontrol.co.uk> wrote: > Does anyone know of any cd burning software that does a library type > thing like windows media player does?

Ideally I'd like to be able to burn mp3 cd's straight from WMP, but I don't know if I can do that either... I don't use WMP for much so I'm not really sure how the library works. But for organizing my MP3s I use iTunes from Apple (http://www.apple.com/itunes/) With it you can create static playlists or "Smart" playlist. Smart Playlists will automatically add new MP3s to the list when the get added to the iTunes libray if the match the criteria you set for the playlist. It will also burn CDs, Audio, MP3 or data cds. You can select the songs to burn, use playlist or select certain songs from a playlist to burn. I've never created an MP3 CD, but I have created quite a few Audio CDs (MP3s convereted to standard Audio CDs) and they work like a charm in my 10 yr old stereo's cd player. -- Bryan Carbonnell - carbonnb at gmail.com Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "What a great ride!" _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
