How to add album art to audio CD

What do you have to do to burn a CD so that the album art shows up when you put it into a computer's CD drive?

I can add album art via tagger to the MP3 but the Burner uses the WAV files?

Confused...
John

Are you referring to iTunes or Windows Media Player picking up the album art? This is done by those programs querying a database and picking up the information via the internet. There are some things embedded on store-bought CDs, like CD-text, but album art is (usually) not on the actual CD.

Unfortunately, pyro Audio Creator cannot write CD Text onto a standard Audio CD. If you are burning a standard Audio CD, then you won't be able to add track name and artist info to CD tracks, nor album art. If you have a CD player capable of playing MP3 Data CDs you can retain this information. Just burn a standard Data CD with only MP3 files.

If you burn you CD in Audio Creator first, then add Album Art, CD-Text and other information in iTunes, then upload it to one of the databases mentioned above, you can do that via the iTunes program. Here's a quick tutorial on this, but there are many more out there: http://answers.yahoo.com/...=20081009203424AAXhAYZ

Hope that helps!

John,
There is some confusing information as you phrased your question.
 
Commerical audio CDs do not have album artwork embedded in them.  Album artwork is maintained in several online databases.  Computer media players such as WinAmp or Windows Media Player reads an identifier file from the CD then accesses one of the online databases to obtain the CD artwork, track list or both.  Sometimes, the online database will not be available or you use Windows Explorer to examine a CD and you will see track names as TRACK01, TRACK02, TRACK 03, and so on.  But when you double click and play a song from the CD you may see the artist name or the name of the song.  That's because textual information can be embedded in the songfile but it's since it's part of the song file, not the CD, the textual information is not available until a song is selected.  Another thing you might notice is each song file has the file extension ".cda" instead of ".wav".  That's because the the cda is nothing more than a shortcut link to the actual sound file data and the sound data is hidden!  Commercial audio CDs are sometimes called Redbook CDs because the software and hardware standards were first presented in a book with a red cover.
 
Sometimes you will run across an "enhanced CD".  One of these CDs is an audio CD but it also has features of a CD ROM data disc.  A Redbook standard audio CD holds no more than sixty minutes of music.  A blank CD can hold 74 minutes of audio data so there is a lot of room remaining for artists to add computer friendly files such as artist profiles, bio, photos or video clips.
 
Three of the more well known CD databases are:  Amazon, discogs and freedb.  You can find a more complete list below.

Yep.  Hopefully John has found a solution by now.
