Create a customized list of tracks for navigating the contents of a CD
Hello,
What is the best/simplest way to create a customized tracklist to display when playing a CD?
My mother is a (young) 83 year-old who spends quite a bit of time driving in her car each week. She really enjoys listening to recorded talks but has exhausted her supply and is tech-UN-savvy. She's quite comfortable using the CD player in her car however, so I told her I would be happy to create some CDs containing talks from the public domain.
The talks download as MP3 files and we agreed that the simplest navigation scheme for her would be to have the tracklist display as follows:
| Track # | Speaker Name | Date | Venue | Title |
I haven't created many CDs in that manner but it seems like downloaded files (or maybe all MP3 files) usually contain data which appears by default in the tracklist. If that is correct, and:
if I've got the data I want to use in five corresponding columns in an Excel spreadsheet, what is the best method or software for:
1) overwriting the default data and
2) creating a tracklist from my spreadsheet?
By the way, I've got VLC Media Player installed. Is that a good option?
Thanks
