Format of MP3 CD to Burn for Playlists on Alpine 9830

How do I burn a CD that will play a playlist of MP3s? The manual was not too clear about that. I've tried to include a .m3u playlist file, but the head unit ignores that file.

shoot its simple. Get a CD burner. (Like every computer comes with one now). And get windows media player (will also probably come with your computer) Then download the songs illegaly from a program like Limewire, WinMX, etc. Then put the songs in a play list, next highlight all your songs and click "add to burn list" then click the burn tab. Then click burn //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif (after you put the blank cd in of course)

E:\

E:\album1

E:\album1\tons of mp3s.mp3

E:\album2

E:\album2\more mp3s.mp3

Then you can +/- 'album' on your deck.

Should have shuffle album + shuffle disc, too.

I tried to burn a CD that has a playlist (.M3U file), followed by a folder with the same name (without the extension), and all my MP3 files within this folder. Still played in burn-order, not playlist-order. I used Nero 6.6.
