Computer Help Needed - MP3 files showing as .cda files - vanity
04 jun 2006 | me

Posted on 06/04/2006 5:01:13 AM PDT by Khurkris

Need some help Recently mp3 files on cd's I put in my box have started showing up as .cda files that are 1 kb big instead of mp3 files. I cannot transfer these to an mp3 player nor copy them to a cd. My older music files still remain as mp3's. What has happened? And what must I do to once again read these as mp3's?

Thanks for any help

so, I would need to use both programs to convert .cda to mp3?

CDAs are just a pointer to audio on a disc, not actual music. If you have a disc with audio tracks on it, it's easiest just to RIP it with something like Media player, Itunes, etc.

If you have a file that is a CDA and is huge, you'd probably have to break it apart using ISO buster as I listed above. It really depends on what you're trying to accomplish. I'd need more information to answer you accurately.

4 year old thread even..heh.
