Authoring MP3 DVDs with Loop Playback option

[flower07]

Okay, so this is what I want to do...


I have a mp3 file of size 40MB. I want to burn it onto a DVD (4.5 GB size) with "loop playback" functionality. That is, I want this 40MB mp3 file to repeat itself once it completes playing until I eject the DVD from my DVD Player.


I know you would say, "why not use the Repeat button on the DVD Player?". I am writing this DVD for one of my blind friend and hence, I would really appreciate it if this MP3 can play over and over as soon as I insert the DVD without having to press any 'Repeat' key in the DVD Player's remote control.


One way I can think of is.. copy and merge this 40MB size MP3 till it grows to a 4.5 GB size MP3 and then burn it in the DVD. But the again, it will not loop playback. I mean it will not start over once after playing the 4.5GB sized MP3.


I currently own Nero 7 and I do not seem to have any options to do this loop playback. Are there any other tools that can help me do this? I would not mind buying it no matter how much ever it costs. Thanks!


PS: I tried ConvertXToDVD software. Unfortunately, it only burns video files on to a DVD with a loop playback option. It does not help in burning MP3 files onto the DVD.

That solution refers to using PgcEdit on a DVD-Video.
As flower07 says, he/she wants to burn an MP3 data disc in such a way that it will loop on playback.
I am not aware of any way to do that other than using the features of the player itself.

Yes....did you read his P.S. or did you completely ignore that? He's almost there.

You mean the P.S. where he says he wants to burn MP3 files rather than video files? That's what I was talking about.

I suppose a possible solution is to add some (possibly blank) video to the audio and make a real DVD-Video. Then he could employ your suggested fix. But I don't think that's what he had in mind.
