How do I copy ape files to CD?

I'm a newbie with this software and this is my first post, so please go easy with me.

I have a folder with musical selections which are in 'ape' format. I would like to burn these files to CD (to play in my car's CD player). I can't seem to figure out how to do that this using CopyToDVD, so I could use your help.

If this is doable, I'd appreciate learning how to go about doing it and would you also tell me if it's ok to use my data CD blanks, or is it necessary for me to get Audio CDs?

Thank you in advance for any help.

Hello,
this is the first time I have ever seen the .ape extension. I googled it and found this program.

hope this works for you

Hi there,

I think the .APE support has been dropped from v4.0.1 to v4.0.3

All audio libraries were updated, and they dropped the .APE support.

As mentioned above, there's probably a lot of .APE to something else converter, which will probably work.

My 2 cents...

Hi,

Just for the info, any blank CD will do for creating an audio cd

Audio CD-Rs are more expensive as the price includes licensing fees, and most of them are limited in speed. They are only required for standalone audio CD recorders, which usually don't accept normal CD-Rs.

Hi there,

I have always used the same CD-R for Data and Music.

Never burned them above 16x or 24x (Personal Choice) and never had an issue with any CD Players (Home, Bedroom, CDMAN, Car Player etc...)

Between version 4.0.1 and 4.0.3 changes were made to the audio library CopyToDVD uses. Some enhances were made, not everything is finished. As soon we can Phil, Tabby or Iwill let you know about the advancements for the ape format. Email me (with out the spaces) claire @ vso-software.fr and I can send you version 4.0.1 if you would like as hopefully will be only a temporary solution.
