When I google for "burn dvd music" there are tools that come up. I've
never tried them. I don't have a dvd burner right now.

What happens when you try playing a DVD of data files (mp3s) in the DVD
player?

You can get a CD player that will play MP3 CD's. These players are as
portable as existing CDA players and only slightly more expensive, and
will play MP3 files saved on CD-R's as data discs. Each CD-R will hold
about 700mb worth of data, which translates to hours of recorded sound.
Also, such disks should be playable in any DVD player much as VCD's
are.

Reading this I wondered if there's a portable audio DVD player in the
works - something the size of any handheld CD player but able to play
mp3 files off of a DVD. Just one disk will hold more than a 4gb Nano,
without anybody having to mess with iTunes or AAC.
Such as the Sony D-VE7000S DVD Walkman?

Interesting, but I was thinking of something with the form factor of
today's handheld CD Players. For the most part, I use music to jog

Yes, you can. All they need is the decoder chip.
Plus a laser that reads re/writable media, of course.
> These players are as portable as existing CDA players...
Yes.

No.
Not anymore. With the increased popularity of HD and flash-memory based
units, the portable 'walk/disc'-man unit has become a bargain hunter's
delight.
At the cost of pennies for a CD-R disc, which can be enjoyed, copied
easily, shared with friends/left for strangers to discover... give me the
shiny silver disc storage over a "drive" which will (not 'might"), crash
and die eventually.

Err... just to clarify: a 700MB (data)/ 80Min (audio) CD-R will hold:
700MB of MP3 data which will result, in some cases, around 10 albums,
depending on bitrate used to encode. If most albums are <approx> 60
minutes, you will have at least 10 hours of recorded sound. Or -
If you're recording an "audio" disc - <whether cloning or recreating from
an mp3 file>, then your maximum space is 80 minutes - and most commercial
CD's fall short of that limitation.

<Insert obligatory: "Consult the manual provided with unit to determine
applicable specifications on this model" comment.>
All electronics are not created equal.
Now, if the OP wants to burn mp3/(data) files to DVD-+/-R discs... that
could merit a different response. I haven't had occasion to use a DVD
burner/software, so I defer to the experts in that arena. Although, I do
burn mp3/CD-R discs that play perfectly fine on my DVD player, hooked
through the stereo via a digital-cable interface.

Probably. But I think the main problem is power. The laser used for DVD
reading just drains too much to make a DVD player the size of a CD
player feasible.

It is *almost* the same 19.3 x 13.6 cm, the size of a DVD, extended for
the 4:3 aspect ratio screen. A CD player is 13.5 x 13.5 cm.

Sony are claiming 7 hours playback.

Well, if it works, it works! AC3, like MP3, is a "lossy" format, so the
sound quality will be slightly reduced. That's all I can really say.
I also tried Apollo Audio Disk Creator. It accepts the mono low bit rate
mp3s just fine, is much faster than the Audio Disk Creator, but my portable
Coby DVD player not will accept the DVDs, even if recorded in ac3 format. It
just displays a "Wrong Disk" message. Works fine with the computer and my
Sylvania DVD player that I have hooked up to my TV, but my purpose in
wanting to make Audio DVDs is for use for the portable Coby player, so
because of this, this program is practically worthless for me.
I also purchased Roxio Easy Media Creator 7. So far I have gotten it to burn
one good disk, which works fine on all my DVD players. This one disk (about
22 hours of radio shows), if I remember correctly, took almost 2 hours to
convert and burn. However, otherwise, the program continually gets a "needs
to shut down" error message, and after shutting down, the disk is ruined.
The problem is, I don't know what I did that allowed it to burn one disk
without shutting down. Unlike the other programs, it starts writing to the
disk as soon as you hit the "Burn" button, and it is after this that it hits
some problem as yet unknown to me, and needs to shut down, but since it has
already started writing to the disk, the disk is ruined. I have wasted more
than 12 DVDs this way, plus many hours of frustration and reading comments
and trying suggestions offered in various forums. I have tried many
different approaches, but I still don't know why I keep getting these error
messages. I have decided that the program just does not like something that
is unique in my Averatec laptop. I will try the program on another computer
when I get time and am able to access my friend's computer.
So my question is: Does anyone know of a really good program that works
something like Apollo Audio DVD Creator that accepts mono low bitrate mp3s,
and that actually can be played all DVD players?

But can it be played on a standalone DVD player?

Rather depends on the DVD player, doesn't it? If it has a decoder to
decode MP3 to wave then yes; if not, then no.

Well, most DVD players can play MP3 from CD-Rs, but not from DVDs. What I
meant to ask is: Are there standalone DVD players on the market that can
play MP3s from DVDs?
