I suppose you mean 'Data CD'. Right, that's not implemented, yet. Maybe I 
should at least pop up an alert panel.

OK. We have to find shorter captions then.

Right. This is not implemented. Currently there is no way to decode mp3, ogg 
etc. and burn it to audio CD. It is not even planned, yet, but if there is 
majot interest in this functionality, it will be provided sooner or later. 
However, it should not be too herd to do it yourself ;-) It needs a new burner 
bundle, that is able to decode before writing. This is probably not the optimal 
solution, but would work.

I check this. This should work.

No it is not. I don't know why, but this is a problem. I thought I had them all 
removed. Sorry, will be fixed.

I'll also check for the prefs.

Thank you :-)
