have deleted settings, uninstalled / reinstalled ImgBurn
4x
can't wait till 2.5.1.0
didn't have this trouble with previous versions
will try 10x as you suggest.
I am a canary, tend to be one of the first to pick up errors in s'ware.
It is a challenge.
at least I'burn doesn't hog the CPU like burnaware 2.3.8
they said that they will fix this 100% CPU usage in 3.0.x
just tried 10x speed
same.
I shall leave this for now & go back to 2.4.4.0
thx 4 your help
looks like I'm not the only one with slow MAX speeds

at least this has got me to review my setup instructions.
it is good to test one's insurance policy from time to time to make sure that they will pay up when the time comes.

thx Cynthia for your reply
> I have the same discs (media code) as you have and these can be burned at 10x with ver 2.5.0.0. I guess it's Verbatims you also have?
They are TDK CD-RW80HS High Speed 700MB
on the label it says 4 - 12x MultiSpeed Compatible
but I've never seen it burn at 12x.
has always been 4x or 10x.
> You are burning on the fly. If you create an image first when you are in build mode (set output device to Image File) and then burn the created image file in the write mode - do you get any faster speeds then?
just tried creating image file & burning,
still 4x
I think I shall try deleting my settings in:
C:\Users\e\AppData\Roaming\ImgBurn\

thx for checking out burner firmware for me
also CD quality
I'm waiting for the CDs to die, won't be buying more of them
since DVDs burn at a faster rate & have more capacity.
BTW DVDs burn OK.
> Why did you abort 87 seconds into the burn?
taking too long
have a real thing about time.
can sense when things are not taking the same amount of time as before.

working out how to delete posts

BTW there is a difference in the Disc info in the when using Build vs Write
Performance (Write Speeds):
vs
Performance (Write Speed):
note the extra "s" in the Build mode, <Device> tab, Disc info.

I did wait till drive gets up to speed, as you can see the time is about the same 1min
I was wondering why the CDs were taking longer than the usual
10 mins = 8min burn + 2min verify
BTW I've kept 2.4.4.0 settings.
shall try NOT keeping them if all else fails.
here is another screen shot to show that the amount burnt doesn't matter
now have to work out how to get to the log file & disk info
-
2.5.0.0 is really buggy for me..

check out my findings with a 10x CD-RW that maxes out at 4x
ie takes 20 mins instead of 8 mins

I'm waiting till 2.5.1.0
I'm trying to remember not to get the .0 version, wait for .1
eg. windows 3.0 or XP
