CD Player: How/Why Do Some CD's Display Titles On Screen?

Most all the CD's I listen to are recorded on my own burner.
Why is it that a few will display song titles on the media screen, while others only display "track 1" etc?
Is this dependent on the brand of blank CD or the data I have recorded in my computer file?
How many lines of data will the screen display?
Anyone know?
Thanks.

it usually has to do with the mp3 files properties... i believe. theres also a cd text option usually on ur burning program.
I use Nero and i download my songs off IRC.

With the Roxio CD burner products (come pre-installed on a lot of systems) you need to record "disc at once", then it'll work

With Roxio, the option you need to choose when burning is "Write CD TEXT".

This will enable the player to display the track information, and disc volume label as well.
