    I'm using WM Player 10 to rip 4 seperate albums and then burn them as WMA files to disk. When I play them in my WMA car stereo the order the songs are played is all over the place. Before they were burnt they were in order but after the burn they are all out of order.Any idea's on how to keep the order they were listed in?

    Ok I will try to explain this better. I'm using WP10 to rip and burn cd's as WMA files. I ripped 4 seperate albums and added them to the burn list. The tracks are all in order on the burn list but after they are burnt their order is all over the place. This makes it a pain in the arse when I play them back on my WMA compatible car stereo as the track/album order is all screwed up.
    On my Car stereo users guide it says that "the unit plays the files in the order that the writing software writes them. Therefore, the playing order may not be the same as the order you input.
    Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

    Problem solved. I used Nero Start Smart and saved the WMA files/tracks into seperate folders which maintained their order as well as made searching for the albums and tracks much easier.
