Can't burn to MP3 CD although sufficient storage available

Hey, I'm trying to burn a playlist of 40 songs, less than 400 MB, roughly 3,5 hours music onto a CD-R of 800 MB (90min). Afaik this should be possible when I burn to MP3 CD instead of Audio CD. However I get the error message: "The songs in this playlist will not fit on one MP3-CD/DVD." I'm very confused. Any advice is greatly appreciated!


Windows, Windows 10

"Check the available space on the disc to make sure all of your data will fit. To see the available space, select the disc, then choose File > Get Info. You may need to eliminate some items or change the size or quality of items to reduce file sizes."
