Abstract
Methods, computer readable media, an optical media recording program, and a computer system implementing program instructions for recording music files to optical media are provided. In one example, a method includes selecting a music data project and enabling the browsing of MP3 files at a source location while filtering other data files. Graphical user interfaces provide for the selection of MP3 files to record, and for the construction of a playlist that will play the selected files in order from the destination optical media. The playlist is created and can be edited during the selection of the files to record. The selected files and the playlist are then recorded to the destination optical media along with an autorun file that will enable the launching of a media player and the playing of the MP3 files in accordance with the playlist upon insertion of the optical media in a playback device.
