I'm burning the cds at x12 or x16.
I did some more experimenting - and the 'cassette-to-cd' process does
seem to be fine with 'standard length' cassettes - and produces a
result which is playable on all of my domestic CD players plus the one
in the car.

I suppose the work-around for the long double-cassette material is to
produce three cds rather than cramming all the material onto two of
them - or edit out a couple of tracks to avoid filling the CDs...

Thanks
Adrian
