Steam Jukebox Custom mp3 CDs

Get exactly what you want!


You can now obtain custom built CD ROMS containing just the tracks you want with around 130 tracks* and a playing time of up to 11 hours.

Including postage to a UK address each Custom CD ROM costs £12.50.
Surely a bargain for 11 hours of recordings!
For Airmail to Europe the price is £13.00 and for Airmail to the Rest of the World the price is £13.50.

The recordings on these CD ROMs are all in CD quality 128kbps mp3 format. They come with comprehensive notes and a track list. They can be played with any software mp3 player, on many DVD players or with the supplied freeware Steam Jukebox Player. Recordings can be transferred to a portable mp3 player.
* The number of tracks on the disk will depend on the playing time of individual recordings which vary from less than 1 minute to over an hour!

How to do it
  1. If you do not already have it, download and install Steam Jukebox Player from here. (Opens in a new window with instructions on what to do!)
  2. Download this zip file. You can right click on the link and select 'Save as' to save the file on your PC.
  3. Extract the files contained in custom_mp3.zip, the file you just downloaded, to a suitable folder on your hard disk. If you don't already have a utility to deal with zip files you can download a copy of WinZip. Windows XP users should find that they can deal with zip files in Windows Explorer.
  4. Start Steam Jukebox Player and go to the Options tab, click Load New Album, navigate to the folder that you extracted the files from custom_mp3.zip to and select custom_mp3.sdb.
  5. You can now browse through the complete collection of recordings and create a playlist containing the tracks that you would like on your custom CD. Instructions for using Steam Jukebox Player, using the search facility and producing playlists are included with the software or you can view help on the web here. (Opens in a new window)
  6. Note that you must only use tracks from the album 'custom_mp3.sdb'. You may also have other album files so make quite sure that you have loaded custom_mp3.sdb. If you use the wrong album file you may not get the recordings that you require.
  7. Your playlist should have a playing time of as near to 11 hours as possible. A few minutes over is probably Ok but if you require much more than 11 hours worth of recordings you must create additional playlists and obtain more than one custom CD or I can put the tracks on a DVD. Please enquire if you want a DVD. At the bottom of the Playlist you can see how many tracks you have and the total playing time.
  8. When you have completed your playlist you must save it to a suitable folder then attach it to an email (the playlist file will have the extension .pll) and send it to this address . Please indicate how you wish to pay and if you require the CD to be posted to the UK, to Europe or to Rest of the World. You can pay by PayPal, by a cheque drawn on a UK bank or by Sterling postal or money order.
  9. When I receive the playlist I will make sure that it is valid then contact you by email including a track listing so that you can confirm that you will receive the correct recordings and with instructions on how to pay.
  10. Once I receive payment I will produce your custom CD which will contain CD quality 128kbps mp3 files which you can play using Steam Jukebox Player, a software mp3 player (such as Windows Media Player) or a portable mp3 player (such as an iPod).

Remember, only create your playlist from tracks contained in custom_mp3.sdb, you must load this before starting and that an individual custom CD can only contain 11 hours of recordings.
