Using Nero Express (of Nero Ultra Edition 7), the Music Audo CD part, I
can't add m4a files. The alert says
"One or more files could not be added to a compilation.
It may be possible, that the files can be added, if a dedicated plug-in
is installed.
H:\Movies\The Very Best Of\07 Strong Enough.m4a"

I searched and I couldn't find the right plug-in. The files play on VLC
or iTunes without a problem, but won't play in Nero Showtime.

Does anybody know where such a Nero 7 plugin is?

Also, I tried to convert these m4a's using ImTOO Audio Encoder 2.1.42
and AltoMP3 Gold Version 5.04. Neither worked.

Look for an MP4 or AAC plug-in for Nero.

Try the FAAC AAC/MP4 v1.0.0.33 plugin

Can't you burn a CD with Itunes?

I figured out a method last night after I posted. I can burn with
iTunes, and I can convert too. I had never bothered with iTunes before;
I had thought it was just another player. It installed by piggybacking
on the QuickTime install.

iTunes can burn in cda (CD Audio), and it can convert too (instructions
in its Help). Using iTunes conversion feature is a way to keep Nero
Express from rejecting the m4a's.

I can use the iTunes rightclick option (options are different when
preferences are changed) to convert the m4a to AAC, the result is a
smaller file with "(Cou.m4a" on the end. You can then take that
file and add it to Nero Express; it accepts this form of m4a. I
haven't actually burned yet using this procedure, but it'll
probably work. The other conversions, wav and mp3, would probably get
accepted by Nero Express too.

I'm not sure if there's any compression loss with AAC, and I
haven't experimented with converting to wav or mp3 (both are
available as encoders in iTunes) either.

I haven't tried the FAAC AAC/MP4 v1.0.0.33 plugin yet. It looks like
it's for Nero 6. The other ones I tried that were made for 6 didn't
work on 7.
