I've tried repeatedly and my blank cd shows the music is recorded but there's no sign of music properties wise or if tried playing it in a cd played.
I dragged in the music (12 tracks) went to tools burn track-at-once... it appears to be working as it goes through the process --- but the cd remains empty, though the time of the music has registered on the cd and it's read by the source forge software as full? please advise.

Does the disc play back on a computer and have you opened the disc in the 'explore' mode to confirm that the audio <.cda> track/files are present
That said, some standalone CD players will not play a TAO (track-at-once) audio CD. Try burning in the DAO (disc-at-once) mode. Fortunately CD-Rs are affordable so one can afford to burn a few 'coasters'.

Addendum. Can we assume it plays normally on the SF timeline? If it does, the original file format has nothing to do with the issue.

You do select to 'Finalise' the disc on the last TAO burn ?

Always better to do DAO if you have all the files ready ....
