eirb38 Hi.

What media players do you have running on computer
If you Go to Library in L/w Highlight a song, then in the bottom left corner click
on explore that will take you to your shared folder, If you then right click on a song, choose open with, then Highlight the player you wish to make your defalt,
then tick the box, too always use this app to open this type of file.
OK That will take the purple thing away

If you dont have a good Player Down load this one.

Try downloading & using the VLC media player (Its Free) & recomended by us here
at the limewire forums. VLC player has most all of the codec's built into the player &
plays above average quality for music & exelent quality for video files, (It play's most everything)

If you wish, VLC player can be set as the defult player for your computer, to do this
In Limewire Library, highlight a file mp3, avi or whatever you wish then click on
explore, in the bottom left corner.
This will take you to the shared folder outside of Limewire, right click on a file,
choose, open with, highlight VLC player, then tick the box to always use this program
to open this type of file. Reapete this action to include all the file types you wish VLC
to be the defult player.
USE THIS LINK IN BLUE (download from the nearest mirror site to you)

Your servant.
Peace.

Try playing them through itunes and make itunes your default player..
If they play fine through that, they should burn fine...If they are not, have you changed the disc's you use...
