Does anyone else have this problem .. ?? I burn CD's all the time .. and every CD plays the first few songs but when it reaches the last 8 .. it starts to skip ... anyone know the reason for this or know how to fix it ??? Thanks

 

I had that same problem. But then I realized the burner wasn't burning correctly. Since all my friends burned CD's worked fine. Got a new burner problem solved

 

did u finalize the cds, wav cds need to be closed.

 

Try burning the CD at a slower speed maybe 20x or 24x. The faster you burn a CD the sloppier. So just slow the speed down and you get a much cleaner efficient burn. Also your CD's will last alot longer if you burn them this way.

 

ok I will try this ... thanks for the info guys ... I thought it had something to do with the thickness of the burnt cds .. ?? but whatever .. I'll try burning it slower ...

 

also try a different media.

 

I have full CD-Rs and they play just fine. Other thing you need to avoid is CD labels.

 

Here's 3 recommendations:

1. Do not overburn the CD-R, I know the max. capacity for a CD-R is 700mb. (80 min). The CD player in a TSX cannot read anything correctly when the storage of the CD-R is bigger than 650mb (74 min). (Maybe 06' TSX can do it, don't know)

2. The speed of burning CD must be set as slow as possible. I always use 4X only, I found no problem at all.

3. TSX CD player can play CD-RW too. Don't want to waste money to buy CD-R.

I hope this can help you...........

 

Really? My 80 min CDs play fine in my 2005 TSX. I'm not sure however if I have played anything on the last six minutes of the 80 min CDs.

 

Ditto. I listen to a lot of DJ mixes and they are definitely over the 700MB level and they played fine.

 

Do you guys all have 05 TSX's ?? mine is an 04 and I noticed the problem .. I will try to do what you guys suggest ... thanks .. And BTW ... the TSX can play CD-RW's too ?? no way .. haha no more wasting CD's then ..

 

I have an 04. Never tried an RW to be honest.

 

Had this happen recenetly. Used HP CD-R and the skipping was terrible. Tried another CD (Sony) and skipping was gone.

 

Mines an '04 and my CD-R/RW's work fine all the way through

 

 

don't use Compusa el cheapo CDRs - they skip on mine while the other name brand CDRs worked, same songs, same burning method!!

 

i had the same problem....

 

i had to buy new CDRW'S and made sure that they were for "music only"......

 

I can vouch for TDK CD-Rs. I've never had one skip.

 

I have Verbatims and they do great.

 

I think Fuji makes the best blanks out there. Had maxells, didn't play in the C36. Had HP, didn't play in the C36. Fuji, played them all.

 

One thing wants to clarify. My TSX is 04. Maybe 05 can play CD-R over 650mb. My friend has 04 TSX too and he gets the same problem with CD-R over 650mb.
Also, TSX can play CDRW, it is POSITIVE, my all 6 CDs in the deck are all CDRWs.

 

Blank CD-Rs are so cheap that I never use a CD-RW. If you watch carefully, you can get a stack of them for 9.99 with a ten buck rebate. So why put yourself through the hassle of rewriting?

 

I get all my media free. DVD, CD-R, CD/RW soon Dual layer.

 

It has nothing to do with the size of the disc. 74 min or 80 min, it doesn't matter. . It's just the brand of CD-Rs you're using. Memorex has been the best for me. With the burn speed, just slow down a little bit and you should also be fine. If it still happens, it's the shitty burner. Having to go all the way down to 4x is pathetic. Wasn't that the max back in 1998 or something? Also check the translucency of the disc. Hold it up to a light. If the light really shines through, get another brand.

 

04 here and I've had no problems. All my CD's are burned. CD-R's. Maxell. I use Nero sofware
