Must CDText be entered from within both ImgBurn and DDP Creator?  I've 
not used the text editor in ImgBurn, thinking that it should pick up the 
info from the .cue file. But it doesn't. I just downloaded the cheap 
Roxio program, with the same result. To the .cue generated by Reaper, 
I've added lines for Title and Performer in Notepad, but nothing got 
burned.

I'm editing in Reaper and Rendering to CUE/BIN. I see something in 
manual for Rendering about "embedding metadata." I've not been ticking 
that box -- should I? I thought that what I'm trying to burn for titles 
was done from the .cue file as part of the burning process. Is the text 
from the cue file considered metadata? And I really don't understand 
what I see in the manual about it. I'm looking at 21.2.2 in the pdf manual.

Excuse the ignorant questions -- it's been close to 20 years since I 
last edited and burned CDs of my live recordings. and I suspect that 
might have been before metadata was standardized. I was using a 
workstation in a tower that ran NT, editing with SAW software. I 
remember generating my own cue sheets, but without titles.

Thanks and 73, Jim
