Thanks a lot !

Hi, Do you think this will cause some hidden problem that I will find later on Vista or on Seven ? Thanks !

The REG_DWORD (which has a value of 0x00000001) is here (on Windows Seven 64 bit) : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\allocatecdroms The "WOW6432node" is automatically used to re-direct x86 apps running under x64. There are also 2 other entries, but they are not keys, only sub-directories in the registry : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SeCEdit\Reg Values\MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Winlogon/AllocateCDRoms HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SeCEdit\Reg Values\MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Winlogon/AllocateCDRoms Cheers.

Hello ! I checked on Vista 64 bit and on Seven 64 bit, the registry value is also wrong (but seem to be placed elsewhere), but here is the interesting part : It doesn't seem to make any problem, I can burn while logged in as a standard user. Is it expected that this bug doesn't affect Vista and Seven ? Or is there some hidden problem that I will find later ? Thanks. PS : I also use the "Enable SPTI access for All Users" setting.

Hello ! I installed ImgBurn on 2 computers : -Windows Vista (64 bit). -Windows 7 (64 bit). I also use the "Enable SPTI access for All Users" setting. I checked, the registry value is also wrong (but seem to be placed elsewhere), but it doesn't seem to make any problem, I can burn while logged in as a standard user. Is it expected that this bug doesn't affect Vista and Seven ? Or is there some hidden problem that I will find later ? Thanks.

I totally agree with you. -It is a great piece of software. -The support by its author (on this forum) is amazing. Thanks a lot !

Ok, I will do as advised. Thanks a lot for your help !!!

With all these informations, I'm less an idiot than I was yesterday, thanks ! One last question: Do I have to be concerned about the warnings that Joliet raises on files that have no extension ? W 11:58:41 Joliet File: '\incremental\pub_dev\bin\python25\Scripts\helpviewer' -> 'helpviewer.' (OS Path: C:\tempo\incremental\pub_dev\bin\python25\Scripts\helpviewer)

Well, the current setting (8.3) doesn't prevent the files copied back from the Dvd to the hard disk to have the full name (I guess the full name is hidden somewhere in the Dvd), so it doesn't seem to be a problem. So I guess the solution is to use ISO+Joliet ? I don't understand how you managed to make it work with 100,000 files, did you use ISO+Joliet ? Thanks a lot.

Thank you a lot for the time you have already spent helping me ! Ok, I installed IsoBuster. I'm not sure where to look for the layout of files and folders, as what I see in Isobuster is the same thing I see in the source (hard disk). (even the Dvd I burned using "Group Files by Directory Levels" looks the same) In the following description (which reproduces what I see in IsoBuster), in front of each folder I write the LBA value found in isoBuster (right mouse button-->Properties) I only show folders here (files are deep in the hierarchy, and have an LBA value higher than 1) Dvd burned using ImgBurn : Dvd-R 847 072 Session1 847 072 Track01 847 072 ISO INCREMENTAL 1 INCREMEN 1 KOBOLSPX 1 DIVERS 1 BACKUP_T 1 UDF incremental incremental kobolspx_d divers backup_telephone In "UDF", I can't get the LBA number, isoBuster tells me I have to register to get that information... Dvd burned using DeepBurner : Dvd-R 825 760 Session1 825 760 Track01 825 760 ISO INCREMENTAL 1 INCREMENTAL 1 KOBOLSPX 1 DIVERS 1 BACKUP_TELEPHONE 1 >>> incremental (Joliet) incremental kobolspx_d divers backup_telephone As you can see, with default settings ImgBurn "ISO" limits folders name to 8 characters, the other burner limits to 13. I guess this is not important. When I export LBA full path as text, I get similar result (except folder name size, 8 vs 13) between ImgBurn and "other burner". No folder is ever listed alone, only as part of a file path. Exporting that text file using Isoburner takes 40 seconds for the ImgBurn Dvd, and 1 second for the "other" burner. Something important is shown in IsoBuster : ImgBurn : ISO+UDF DeepBurner : ISO+Joliet. I have tried another burn (using ImgBurn), with option ISO9660+Joliet. Operation is successfully completed, but I get dozens of warnings, like this : W 11:58:41 Joliet File: '\incremental\pub_dev\bin\python25\Scripts\helpviewer' -> 'helpviewer.' (OS Path: C:\tempo\incremental\pub_dev\bin\python25\Scripts\helpviewer) It seems all files that have no extension raise that warning, but they are burned anyway, so I guess nothing is lost here (I hope so). Let's try to copy this "ISO+Joliet" Dvd to my Hard Disk : The copy "preparation" is a little faster. The copy itself is very fast now !!! So, whatever the problem is, it's related to UDF. Thanks !

As I can't install IsoBuster today, let's try the setting : I switched "Group Files by directory levels" from OFF to ON, and tried exactly the same process. Same problem... Well, tomorrow I will install IsoBuster and search the difference, I will let you know. Thanks !

Thanks for your fast reply ! I'm not sure what setting can give 2 choices for "layout of files" in ImgBurn, is it one of these 2 settings on Build-->Page 1 ? -Group Files by directory levels. -Sort files by source list order. Cheers.

Hello, I am in the process of changing my burn software (from CdBurnXp to ImgBurn), but I have a problem reading all Dvd I write with ImgBurn. I use the "Write files/folders to disc" button. The burn is always successful, but when I try to read, it is incredibly slow. I have tried it (write and read) on 3 computers : -XP 32 bit, on a 5 years old computer. -Vista 64 bit on a 1 year old computer. -Vista 64 bit on a 1 week old high-end workstation. The read is slow on all computers, even when it was burned on its own Dvd drive. Write and verify steps take 7 minutes, with no problem at all, on all computers. When I try to read back from the Dvd to a local hard disk, it takes 56 minutes ! If I burn exactly the same directory with 2 other burners (CdBurnXP and DeepBurner), I can read the result in 15 minutes. Even at the beginning of the copy (I type CTRL-C on the Dvd content, then CTRL-V on the local hard disk), I see the Microsoft Windows pop-up refreshing the number of files to copy and the total size. This part (before the copy actually start) takes : -63 seconds for a Dvd burned with ImgBurn. -2 seconds for a Dvd burned with CdBurnXP or DeepBurner. Another difference : If the Dvd was burned using ImgBurn, the drive makes a lot of noise when I read it (to copy to hard disk), as if the head was moving a lot. Almost no noise at all is heard at read-time when I burn using other burners. Of course, for all my tests, the Dvd contains exactly the same files, burned from the same directory. Here is how I install ImgBurn v2.5.0.0 : During installation, I switch ON this setting : "Enable SPTI access for All Users". After installation, I switch ON these settings (from Tools-->Settings) : Build-->Page2-->Don't Prompt Image Details Build-->Page2-->Don't Prompt Root Content-->Answer NO After clicking on "Write files/folders to disc", I switch ON this setting : Advanced-->Restrictions-->ISO9660-->Allow More Than 8 Directory Levels Everything else is set as default. So my tests were done using the default Options-->FileSystem-->ISO9660 + UDF Then I tried the "UDF" setting, just in case ISO9660 was guilty, but the problem is exactly the same. The directory I write is always the same for years, it contains 20 000 files (1700 folders, 1.6 Gigabytes), it's my backup containing a lot of stuff (.txt .jpg .doc .html .cpp .h etc...). The tests were done using the same Sony Dvd-R medias (SONY16D1) on all computers. I also tried Fujifilm media (RITEKF1), but same problem. It's probably my fault, so please tell me what switch I forgot to change in the ImgBurn settings. Thanks a lot, Paul I 08:46:02 ImgBurn Version 2.5.0.0 started!
