Complete Norman Granz Jam Session

Never had any trouble transfering things to an MP3 player before, but the process fails in the three Ballad Medleys. Nothing else. Odd. Any thought? Hints? Condolences? I'm not sure if these tracks play through; I don't have a CD player.

Are the track titles really long, and/or do they contain a number of non-letter characters? I've run into problems with tracks like this in the past.

Vibes,

Haven't been able to confirm this yet, but it sounds like you may have solved my problem. The Ballad Medley song titles list every song that makes up the medley, and includes slashes between the song titles. Looking forward to trying again tonight. Thanks for the reply!

The Ballad Medley song titles list every song that makes up the medley, and includes slashes between the song titles.

Slashes mess up the file naming routines since in PC lingo, a slash identifies a directory tree. Rename the ballad medley with dashes (-) and you should be fine.

BTW, you are much better off using Exact Audio Copy to rip CDs. If you did, you'd know if there were read problems and the audio extraction is much more precise. However, EAC is not an easy program to master so if you are not feeling like learning something new, stick with what you have.
