Windows 10: How come I burn a CD on Windows Media Player, it makes the songs all slowed?

Recently, I burnt a playlist onto a CD with WMP, and I used the computer's original drive since that was the only one I had. As soon as I played it, it started playing slowed version on it. How do I fix this issue?

Burning CD with Windows Media Player

Hi Carey,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I will be glad to assist you with this.

Firstly, Windows Media Player requires that content intended to be burned to discs be first stored on the computer's hard disk. Therefore, I would suggest you to copy all the songs to a folder first and then proceed to the next step.

Once that is done, I would suggest you to refer to the help article below for steps to burn the CD and check if it helps.

Cannot burn songs to CD inserted already on to computer Error: insert a blank cd

Hi

In order to understand the issue in a better manner, please share the following details.

• 
  Are you trying to Burn Music on to the DVD inserted?
  
• 
  “Only 5 songs on the cd” is it a Read/ Write disk or a Normal disk (copy write CD)?
  

Let me inform you, if you have a Normal disk with 5songs burnt and saved you will not be able to Burn the new songs again. Until and unless the disk inserted is a Read/ Write CD.

Put an empty disk in the drive open my computer and double click on the CD inserted. And check for the status of the CD, if its CD/DVD-RW drive, if any files appear in explorer greyed out then delete them by clicking "Delete these temporary files".

I suggest you to follow the below steps to fix the issue.

Method 1: if you are trying to copy the songs to CD, follow the below steps.

If the CD is copy right protected. You will not be able to copy songs to the computer if the CD is copy right protected.

Also try to clear the burn list if any old list of songs available and try to copy again and see if it helps.

WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER 12 IN WINDOWS 10 WILL NOT BURN AN AUDIO CD FROM SONGS IN THE WAV FORMAT

The notebook is new and it has an i7 processor with 16 GB of Ram. It also has an optical drive built into it.

I recently assembled a playlist of 24 songs in the wav format in Windows Media Player. I followed the established instructions on how to burn an audio cd using the burn option in Windows Media Player The problem is that all I get is an error message. Usually
it identifies the 15th song in the playlist as the song producing the error. When I put a new song in the 15th spot in the playlist, the computer identifies this new song as the one producing the error. When I restart the computer and retry the burn process
again, the computer will sometimes identify 3 or more songs in the playlist with error messages that are preventing Windows Media Player from burning the cd.

The burn speed is set at slow. Leaving the burn speed at its default, fastest speed did not make any difference.

The computer manufacturer confirmed that that all the Windows Media Player 12 software and drivers are current and did not think that the optical drive was the problem.

Is there anything that can be done to have Windows Media Player 12 first of all burn audio cd's from a wav source and secondly be reliable in doing it?

If Windows Media Player 12 is not capable on a reliable basis to burn audio cd's from a wav source, does Windows 10 contain an app or program that will burn audio cd's from a wav source that does not have to be purchased as an extra?

I would like to add that this is a new experience for me as I have used older versions of Windows Media Player on my old desktop to burn audio cd's from wav sources with few problems.
