OK thanks anyways.

Does IMGBurn allow me to adjust the treble or bass before burning an audio file to disc? I did a search through the forum but didn't see anything on this. I'm thinking this is very unlikely, but I thought I'd ask.

Got it. Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. I went through every tab in the settings window, including page 1 and 2 when I saw them, but didn't see any option to disable UDF unicode support.Can you let me know where I can access that option?

OK at least I know now that this is all I can expect. One more thing--is there a particular burning format (joliet, etc.) that I could use, that would allow me to burn as many files with long names as possible? I believe that is the reason for so many files in that log there---or is there some other reason why they were not burned?

I see lots of file names. Was the problem created by long file names? I have files inside folders nested inside folders, giving them long names. I've gotten error messages (in different copying programs) before about not being able to copy certain files b/c of their long names....

I read the forum FAQ, and verified that my computer (XP SP3, a dual-core cpu at 1.6 GHz, with 2 gigs RAM) is in fact on DMA mode (when possible, the Device Manager says). I find that IMGBurn takes what seems to me to be a long time to burn a dvd. I had 6 folders, some 4 gigs of data (single layer) on a dvd, and it took just over 10 minutes to burn. If it matters, most of this data is simply Word files and pdf files--very little graphics and music or videos. IMGBurn is 2.5.0.0--not the latest, but near enough I suppose. Is there anything I can do to speed up these burns?
