Best Answer

it depends. are you using a DVD/ CD player? or are you using just a plain CD player? if ur using the CD player, it wont work because it doesn't have a screen. if your using a DVD/ CD player, it will work just fine.

A DVD will not play in a CD-only player -- even a CD-ROM drive that does not have DVD hardware built in. The stepper motors and lenses for a DVD-ROM drive are far more precise than a CD drive, and the CD drive cannot physically read the tiny information on the DVD surface.

How do you make an audio DVD?

It is impossible to make an audio DVD that would play in a CD player. DVDs are made for DVD players, not CD players. You could use iTunes to make a Data DVD, but that still wouldn't play in a CD player. It might not even play in a DVD player. Sorry, you'll probably have to stick with CDs for audio.
