I have recently started uploading the split clips of songs, so that i may be able to make CDs in Secondlife.
But i have come across a problem, The clips, individually played, play all the way thorugh with no apparent mess-ups, but when i place them into a prim with a CD script, the clips get cut off/Start late/Get choppy.
I have cut them into 9 second clips, and uploaded them seperately at 32kbps
Is this a script problem? Upload problem?
I would really like some help, i have spent many Lindens trying to fix it Thanks in advance for your help!

What you are trying to do is exactly why the Lindens force a time limit on sound files.
The world is too laggy to reliably play music seamlessly. I'd venture that where you are now is as close as you're gonna get.

It's a streaming world problem. There's no way to be certain how long a clip will take to load in the client, plus the problem of having the script scheduler pause your clip playing script while other scripts in the sim are run.
Clip playing scripts are also a great way to lag sims.
This kind of "CD" used to work well about two years ago. I've not seen one work reliably since.

It's possible the script you are using could be improved upon.
Perhaps if you were to post the source code in the scripting tips forum you could get a scripter to suggest an improvement.

Why waste your time and money?
There are a ton of those CDs already made. I've seen pages and pages of them for L$1 each on SL Boutique and there are many in world.

Do I need to be the one to point out that selling other people's music on SLB or SLE or anywhere else is illegal? Please respect copyright. Thank you.

Chosen has brought up a good point. If it's for personal use and you do not intend to resell it than you have that right under US laws to port your music to any medium of your choice although it is illegal to by bypass any DRM protection on the medium.
