Guest j43fleck Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 I know I can use Media Player to burn media CD's. But what does Windows use to burn data CD's, non-Media Player CD's? Is there a way to keep the CD session open? -- Thanks, John
Guest Michael A. Loginov Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Re: burning files to CD For data CD You can use Explorer - just copy files and folders to CD inserted. In the Explorer windows with CD You'll see something like "Burn disk" on the left pane. As I know, Windows XP burns multisessions, but I'm not sure. j43fleck wrote: > I know I can use Media Player to burn media CD's. But what does Windows use > to burn data CD's, non-Media Player CD's?

Guest j43fleck Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Re: burning files to CD Do you know what software Windows uses? I've seen Roxio referred to. -- Thanks, John "Michael A.

Once upon a time, Roxio was the owner of Easy CD Creator. Jim
Guest Xandros Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Re: burning files to CD Yes Windows XP uses code purchased from roxio in their built in burning software. XP uses the ISO9660/Joliet format and not the UDF or packet writing format though .

Guest ju.c Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Re: burning files to CD Use ImgBurn. I have Nero and Roxio, but ImgBurn succeeds when sometimes the other two don't. ImgBurn 2.4.2.0 Info: http://imgburn.com/ Download: http://download.imgburn.com/SetupImgBurn_2.4.2.0.exe Language packs: http://imgburn.com/index.php?act=download quote/ ImgBurn is a lightweight CD / DVD / HD DVD / Blu-ray burning application that everyone should have in their toolkit! It has several 'Modes', each one for performing a different task: Read - Read a disc to an image file Build - Create an image file from files on your computer or network - or you can write the files directly to a disc Write - Write an image file to a disc Verify - Check a disc is 100% readable. Optionally, you can also have ImgBurn compare it against a given image file to ensure the actual data is correct Discovery - Put your drive / media to the test! Used in combination with DVDInfoPro, you can check the quality of the burns your drive is producing ImgBurn supports a wide range of image file formats - including BIN, CUE, DI, DVD, GI, IMG, ISO, MDS, NRG and PDI. It can burn Audio CD's from any file type supported via DirectShow / ACM - including AAC, APE, FLAC, M4A, MP3, MP4, MPC, OGG, PCM, WAV, WMA and WV. You can use it to build DVD Video discs (from a VIDEO_TS folder), HD DVD Video discs (from a HVDVD_TS folder) and Blu-ray Video discs (from a BDAV / BDMV folder) with ease. It supports Unicode folder/file names, so you shouldn't run in to any problems if you're using an international character set. ImgBurn supports all the Windows OS's - Windows 95, 98, Me, NT4, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista and 2008 (including all the 64-bit versions). If you use Wine, it should also run on Linux and other x86-based Unixes. It's a very flexible application with several advanced features that are often lacking in other tools, especially when it comes to burning DVD Video discs. It supports all the latest drives without the need for updates (including booktype / bitsetting / advanced settings on many of the major ones - i.e. BenQ, LiteOn, LG, NEC, Plextor, Samsung, Sony). There is an image queue system for when you're burning several images (which you can automatically share between multiple drives if you have more than one) and an easy-to-use layer break selection screen for double layer DVD Video jobs. The Automatic Write Speed feature allows you store your favourite burn speed settings on a per 'Media ID' basis, right down to a drive by drive level. Data captured during the burn (write speed, buffer levels etc) can be displayed / analysed using DVDInfoPro. Whilst ImgBurn is designed to work perfectly straight out of the box, advanced users will appreciate just how configurable it is. Oh and let's not forget the best thing about it.... it's 100% FREE! /quote ju.c "Plato" <|@|.|> wrote in message news:48ae8fd8$0$4617$bb4e3ad8@newscene.com... > =?Utf-8?B?ajQzZmxlY2s=?= wrote: > > I know I can use Media Player to burn media CD's.

Guest Bill in Co. Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Re: burning files to CD I bet that is only true IF you choose to install the packet writing stuff (which I never do), (assuming you are given the options in the program install). (The only downside of that is that one can't use the R/W disc mediums, but I won't touch those with a ten foot pole, as they can be so problematic).
