Creating CDs for my Car Stereo

Recently, I bought a really cheap Car Stereo for my car. It can play CDs & MP3s. So I created some Music CDs and MP3 cds. But unfortunately, the stereo does not play my cds. I have tested my cds in my friends car (who has an expensive car stereo) and the cds play fine.

Similarly, my stereo can also play original cds, which I have bought from shop.

So my qusestion is: how can I ensure that my car stereo can play my MP3 and Music Cds.

thanks

Finalise the disc and don't use the Joliet naming convention. You can turn this off in Nero. If that doesn't work try removing version 2 ID3 tags from your mp3s.

Try another brand of blank media.

thanks

I was also advised to reduce the recording speed (e.g 4x..) which I did and its working fine now.
