[ImgBurn v2.5.1.0 Released!]

Thank you for all the work on this new version.

 

I am wondering if this new version has multi-session burning. What I mean is: If I burn some files to a CD, can I leave the CD open and go back later an add some more files to the same CD?

 

I have been hearing for some time that this feature would come in a future version. If not now, when might I expect this feature?

 

Thanks again.

 

Yeah, I have been waiting for that to be implemented forever. I just use Nero and Joonas drag and drop plugin for winamp so I can add files easier.

Google led me to this, so I figured it's worth a bump.

 

Honestly, I'm logically led to believe I should be able to open, or otherwise import, an existing CUE file (created by ImgBurn, for example), to do further manipulation to it. I rarely want to make the same disc twice, but I may want to make a similar disc based on a previous one. For example, last night I burned someone an audio CD with ImgBurn, but today someone else wants the same disc, plus one extra song. I'm just glad I copied all the music on the disc into a single folder, so drag-n-drop is easy, but imagine if I hand-selected songs out of a large music library?

 

LUK, is it very hard to add "open" functionality to the existing "create" system, or is that something reasonably requested? As a PHP web designer myself, I can understand the pain if it wasn't designed with that function in mind, so I can understand if it won't be added. But I would like to put in my vote for a future feature

 

Exactly, you get my point how much easier it would be to be able to save a cue sheet and be able to edit it later. Imgburn is great don't get me wrong and if you could edit cue sheets I wouldn't have to keep crawling back to nero.

It's all good I can understand if you don't wanna make software bloated like a lot of others out there but to be really useful it would help making cue files editable under the same GUI. I have ended up going back to a bare bones version of nero 7 that has all the plugin support preinstalled ie. FLAC, OGG, APE, LAME etc. Then using a plugin in winamp to just right click and drap the files directly into nero from my playlist.

[Few suggestions for audio burning]

You can definitely overburn in ImgBurn. I believe you can go at least 90 seconds beyond the rated time of a CDR without any trouble. Beyond that, I'm not sure. I managed almost 82 minutes on an 80 minute Verbatim made by Ritek.

 

ReplayGain is only for playback on computers. It does nothing when burning to CD. You need a program like Nero which can modify the audio files as it burns; normalizing is what you want.

 

Cue sheets can be edited using a text editor if necessary.

 

The cue sheets can be edited but why not just make it possible to have multiple sessions with the same cue sheet so you don't have to edit it manually to get the desired effect.

I don't get it why have the option to save the cue file if you can't add stuff to it later? The mixes I make evolve a lot before I finish adding more songs and sound clips for fun. It is a pain to add everything all over again each time I have it in just the right order. Not only that but all the song are all in one folder so it's not just a quick add and be done with it.

I was making an audio cue file and didn't have time to finish so I saved it. Now I can't figure out how to load it back up so I can add more songs to it.

[Few suggestions for audio burning]

First, I want to say I am so glad you added audio cd burning to an already great program. Now with that being said adding a few more features to it would make it probably the best burning program available. Adding Replaygain support would do wonders since utilities like mp3gain won't do files like FLAC or OGG. I haven't tried to overburn yet but I haven't seen where it is supported so that would be a plus. Also when creating a new .cue file sometimes I want to check the desktop for something and I can't access the main window to minimize or drag it out of the way. Also sometimes I take a while to finish a mix and not being able to reload a cue sheet is a real pain.

 

 

Thanks
