hey i have a avic-z2 updated to z3 maps and software. whenever i pop in a audio cd it records automatically which i like because of the large hdd i can store lots of cds. the first 2 cds it recorded the titles of the songs correctly and successfully. now wen i rip a cd onto the hdd the title of the song will be the date i ripped it to my hdd, never the actual title of the song. how can i fix this so that the song title will actually show up?
Use a cd burning program that supports "cd-text" like Nero.
Does windows media player support cd-text?
I thought it was a setting in the navi or something like that?

Windows Media Player requires a plug in. See the wiki:

There are no settings in the Avic. When it rips a cd, it first checks the gracenotes database. If the CD is not found in the database (or custom cd), then it will use the cd-text data. If cd-text data is not found, it will use the ripped date/time for track title.
Alright so if I install the cd tezt plugin for wmp and burn a cd using wmp then rip the cd to my avic z2's hdd the titles of the songs should show up rite?

I've never used WMP, but yes, in theory. Please let us know if it works. Don't forget to edit the cd-text field to display the way you want.

I use Roxio and have zero problems. I can embed any title I want and verify song title and information using 'Gracenote' prior to burning, also set uniform volume on CD. After doing this the Z hdd thinks it is a store bought CD everytime. I tried WMP a couple of times but had no luck using the CD's on my Z3 unit. Oh, they played alright but would not record.
