I have some success with burning a data dvd with wav files.

Most players will see the wav files and play them. That way you are not 
limited to time ( length of time on dvd ) and only limited to size.

You can get quite a bit on a dvd.

Try it with your deck.

I have no problem with mine but it will play mp3 audio so it is able to 
pick up files.
So give that a try and make a Data DVD with wav files.
