Quick question for anybody who knows out there.
I want to burn a long mixed audio CD, but also have track markers every now and then. Using Nero I have the option to either insert "New Index" or "Split" the track. If I want the CD to play continuously without noticeable pauses, which should I choose?

I think if you split the track it'll automatically insert two second pauses between tracks. If it does then you need to change the properties on each track so that it's at 0 seconds. Bear in mind that some CD players are shit and pause between tracks anyway.

I was wondering if it might pause between tracks anyway, even if I set the pause to 0. That's why I was curious about the "new index" feature, although the help says that not all CD players support it.

I haven't found it to. I haven't used the index feature yet so I can't help there. Sorrry. Could you test on a CD-RW the results?

Hmm, yes I could try that and play it in my PC (stereo doesn't like CD-RWs). Although discs are so cheap anyway...
Cheers giginger./

while we're at it: how do i get to let it burn better. thing is burnt a load of cd's with nero that were pretty crappy. probably because done too fast, this other program i used burnt much slower by itself even when set to 48 speed. i think nero did something similar but faster, or maybe it has to do with that it writes the the information to the computers memory first because i make this playlist ( in which i remove all the 2 seconds manually). i got the latest shareware nero off internet.

I think that index points are like markers within a track, not actual track start/stop points. If you split the track, then set the pregap to zero and burn with disc-at-once it should do what you want.
I split up my mixes with Goldwave into the tracks I wanted and tried burning with disc-at-once and 0 pregap in nero and, though it should have worked, it left a tiny click between some of the tracks. I even tried building a .img file so the file was one continuous block and got the same problem. I tried to do exactly the same thing with CDRWin and it worked perfectly. And it does it perfectly all the time.
Maybe you'll be ok though with Nero since you're starting from on file and just adding track points.
Give it a go! CDRs aren't expensive
