Windows 10: Windows Media Player/Disc Burning

Hello everyone


I have a Windows 10 PC that was purchased in August of 2018. When using Windows Media Player, I am only able to burn one CD and Windows Media Player stops recognizing blank media. I have to exit the application and re-launch in order for it to recognize any additional discs.


Is anyone else having this issue?



Thanks!

:)

 

Problem with burning disc on Windows 10 using Windows Media Player

Hello Tibbies,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

We understand the inconvenience you have experienced.

Did you tried using another disc?

I guess the problem might be with the disc, which you're trying to use. Sometimes, the disc will still appears as empty even if there is some data on it or any damage to it. Suggest you to cross check the issue by using another disc or a new disc to see
if the same thing happens. Also try to restart your PC once, post complete shutdown to see if it makes different in the situation.

Burning photos to a CD Disc

Hi Jimmy,

We suggest that you use Windows Media Player to burn the images. Please follow the steps below:

• Open Windows Media Player.
• In the Player Library > Burn tab > select
  Burn options.
• Choose Audio CD or Data CD or DVD.
• Insert a blank disc into your CD or DVD burner. (Select the drive you want to use if your PC has more than one CD or DVD drive)
• Search for the items in your Player Library that you want to burn to the disc, and then drag them to the list pane (on the right side of the Player Library) to create a burn list.
• When you're finished with the list, select Start burn.

Note: If necessary, click the Clear list button to remove all items from the previous burn list.

Let us know how it goes.
