Again, the advantage of the Roxio software is that one adds albums, not songs, until the CD is shown to be filled. I know of no other software that does this. Roxio has yet to reply as to whether its latest version of Creator has retained the so-called jukebox CD facility. The latest Win 10 update has finally killed the earlier Roxio 'jukebox' facility I have been using. I couldn't even reinstall the utility. Thanks, M$.
If your "Albums" are in folders on your HDD you can drag the whole folder or Album into the burn area of CDBurnerXP you do not need to drag just individual songsone adds albums, not songs, until the CD is shown to be filled. I know of no other software that does this
Apparently, Roxio is the only one, (so far), that will create folders on the disc! And, I tried a lot of them!
However, it won't play in my car either!
Plays on anything else, but not my car!
As they are really "data" CD's any Data CD Burner program should be able to create folders. Just add the folder with the "Album" to be burned. We are really only talking "terminology" that Roxio uses compared to what is actually created.
Hi folks
Some cars (older radios) won't play CD or DVD of the +RW or -RW variety. I see from your screenshot the disc is marked as DVD RW. CD-R (not DVD-R) will usually work though.
I don't know about these "Car Jukebox" DVD's -- however if you are any good with a soldering Iron -- remove the car radio and solder two wires (red/white) in parallel to the place where the players wires go from the CD/DVD into the radio amplifier. With a female mini headphone type socket - you've now got an aux in for your car radio -- simply connect smart phone headphone socket to your home made aux in and play music from phone.
You could probably pick up a car radio with aux in and blu tooth these days almost for nothing -- I junked 2 at the the local tip the other day - they had an old minidisc player and no blutooth. Why mess around with CD's or DVD's or any physical media these days.
(Also if you live where I do and go out of town away from city centre or main island circular ring road (Highway 1) -- some of the so called other "Roads" any CD would be shaken to pieces !!!!).
Blue tooth from smart phone is also an easy solution for blue tooth enabled radios.

Most other apps won't maintain the folder hierarchy as Roxio does, others just create a huge scrambled list of mp3's.
I tried the drag and drop method too but players won't play it, the Roxio one plays on PC, Home Stereo CD player, living room DVD player...
It's a CD-R...
Hi there

@Stony141
Have you tried to create an AUDIO CD of that lot with a standard CD burning app -- I think also some burning apps allow you to create an MP3 Audio CD (note NOT a data CD).
A typical standard CD (77 minutes max - standard not mp3 CD) has tracks labelled 1.cda, 2.cda etc when looked at in Windows explorer.
This might help
