I am trying to burn MP3's with Toast 4.0.1.1 and a Yamaha 8424s without any success. I have tried to place the MP3 files into Toast as a audio file. To which Toast says this is not an audio file. I have converted the MP3s to AIFF files with MPecker Drop decoder and everytime I try to burn the CD, Toast indicates it is burning the CD, but after a couple of minutes the progress bar stops moving as does the clock, the cursor continues to spin. I have waited from 40 minutes to an 1 1/2 hours for it to complete. At this point I have to force the machine to reboot. I am using Conflict Catcher to reduce the number of extension that load to the bare minimum, I have slowed the burn down to 1X, 2X, and 4X speeds to no avail. The blank is not burned even though Toast says the burn has started. I have been successful burning data CD's and have burned audio CD's from an audio CD, but no luck with MP3 files. I am using a PPC7500 with a newer G3 300 1mg cache PCI card. Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated.
