Denon dcm-280 and MP3 issue

Archived from groups: rec.audio.tech (More info?)

I have a Denon DCM-280 5-disc CD changer. I am having issues playing
MP3 cds.

I use Roxio EZCD Creator 5 Platinum. I set it to record as ISO9660
file format. I am using 80 minute CD-R. I finalize the CD after
recording.

When I put the CD in the machine, the display shows the number of
songs. I hit play, and the timer starts counting, but I get no sound.

If I pop that same CD in my DVD player, it plays just fine. Same with
using a computer.

Can anyone provide me a little insight? Should I try another burning
program, like Nero, maybe?

Thanks in advance!

Well, I figured it out. The CD player is connected to my receiver
through a digital audio connection. I aalso have the RCA jacks hooked
up to a Niles whole house audio receiver.

As it turns out, the MP3 sound is not broadcast through the digital
output, but it is over the RCA jacks! I was able to hear the songs in
my house speakers.

Does anyone have an idea as to why this may be?

Thanks.
