  1. if you burn alot at one sitting the queing feature is excellent
  2. A picture of lfcrule1972, Paybacks are a bitch! Options I cringe at what the answer might be but here goes , JMET what were you doing in the same room with a grown man in his underwear to get that picture and are there more we shouldn't see
  3. thats DVD Shrink you're thinking of it had the option of using Decrypters burn engine or Neros
  4. I wasn't implying anything only that if a ripping feature was implimented for all those that would be reading non protected discs there would be an equal number or more that would be ripping protected stuff and thats where the legal problems would start and it also led to the demise of my favorite program
  5. that staple can do some real damage
  6. you install those programs once not everytime you work with a client and it doesn't have to be on their time . Creating ISO's require files to be ripped to the HD and for legal reasons IMGburn will not be implimenting a read/rip feature. Ripping and circumventing the laws against piracy wont be discussed on this forum for obvious reasons .If you read through the forum there was a post about creating ISO's don't remember where and I'm not sure it was a free program, try the search feature at the top of the board

    the first optorite I couldn't set the region ,you would set it and then next burn you had to set it again with only 5 X tries for setting region I'd get 5 burns and that would be all .I dealt with Optorite Tech Support who were good about replying they gave me a different firmware for the drive but no good .Next one would set but had power buss problems rma'd that ,third one would only burn at slow speed on Ritek it was an 8x burner a friend who had the same drive burned at 8x on Ritek mine wouldn't .I decided to cut my losses and give up on optorite .I dont see them make any lists for being quality drives and with the price of DVD burners around the $50 mark its no use beating a dead horse I bought an NEC 3500 and its been great ,easy to flash, pretty good on firmware updates, nice burns ,works for me
  8. Dang! Looks like I'll have to find a new brand... someone gave me 100 or so blank CD's and when I ran them on DVDinfoPro lo and behold they were CMC's no wonder they looked so pleased giving them away
  9. Welcome to my SHIT LIST Maxell! Maxell is of the opinion that CMCMag media is of a HQ nature and they will only replace defective media, not unburned ones. I couldn't be bothered to harse about with shite discs, so I now have 50 nice gold Maxell coasters, and I will no longer buy squat fuck from them. you should let them know in no uncertain terms I think "Squat Fuck " covers it nicely
  10. You ASKED for the keys ,what a good son anyway Happy belated Birthday Jr.
  11. thanks man, got the word today ,don't look for any days off including weekends for the next month or so I don't know if I'm glad about the extra $$$ or not I'm on day 9 without a break and feeling bone tired already
  12. hey everyone, power was turned back on today and cable and the internet came on also .This was my first hurricane and I somehow expected something more like the pictures from last year with Charley .There were some high winds and no rain from the first front of Wilma that I managed to sleep through untill my sister called yelling that they were evacuating West Palm (they weren't ) the eye then passed over and it was really calm and then the winds started again from the other direction .There was plenty of damage, all the fencing on three sides of me was down, transformers knocked down, trees broken and toppled construction trailers mangled, and the bar on the corner had the roof collapse but being true party animals they continued to drink and run generators to keep the beer cold all the traffic lights were out and the people were great ,didn't see one accident ,everyone stopped and took their turn at the 4 way streets .I have a big Honda generator and we ran 5 houses off it so we had lights ,refrigerators, DVD's ,of which I have a good collection and I made a cable that I could power the electric water heaters so we had hot water for showers. I'm back to work full tilt mostly repairing damage at schools so they can re-open Monday although I don't think they will . All in all it was OK, being prepared was the trick ,stock up on canned goods bottled water and stuff like that and you're ok .There are many places that are still without power and FEMA brings ice ,water and some small boxes of food that were basically snacks .Good to be back and thanks to all who were concerned
  13. its 4:41 am here and the wind chimes outside woke me up they sound like an orchestra .The winds are starting to pick up and gust pretty good .The track for the storm might be a little north of me I hope but they talk like its going to cut across Fla and go up the east coast and dump plenty more water on an already soaked Northeast stay tuned
  14. thanks will do .Went out tonight and stocked up on food and water I have a generator that will run most of the things in my house , topped off the car and filled a 5 gallon gas can for the generator so I think I'm ready
  15. I'm in West Palm Beach ,It'll be my first brush with a hurricane but while living in NY I did experience a small earthquake but that was in my wild drinking and partying days and while in bed I felt the movement and had thought I dragged someone home with me after a wild party no such luck
  16. before I moved to this house it had the roof blown off it last year during Charley .The construction company I work for is still doing hurricane work from last year and anyone doing roofing is balls to the wall with work. I'm doing a job for Jet Blue and tomorrow we'll go to the site and secure everything there .I dont want to buy an airplane because some of our material damages one
  17. I had this problem way back when I was using the Nec 2500 and the answer was to reduce the burning speed after I did all burned fine ,might work for you
  18. just got in after loading plywood on my friends pickup he will do the stuff at ground level tonight and tomorrow we'll do the rest of his house he's got a feeling we'll get hit if not a hurricane then a bad storm
  19. I would hope so since you'll be #2 as long as there's a IMGburn forum

    optorite raises its ugly head ,take no offense but I had an optorite and it was nothing short of crap,worked a little while ,RMA'd it got a new one ,new set of problems ,RMA'd that, different problems then thought if I keep banging my head off a wall whose going to cry first bought a NEC3500 and it works a treat currently I use taiyo yuden and verbatim and the NEC recognizes all the rated speeds of the media
  21. the cops seized a billion and were wondering where to store the 800 million they confiscated and complained that 500 million was a lot of money to count and how were they going to get 300 million into court as evidence
  22. if everything fails at the end then thats another symptom of bad media what you can try is to compress a little more to move you away from the outer part of the disc but then again more compression and low quality media will cause problems also .Untill you get some top media you can make yourself crazy trying to sort this out .If you had an ISO of about 3.5-4 gigs you could see if it burns OK good luck let us know how you make out
  23. yep CMC is crap use Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim and my old Sony DRU510 A loved Ritek 4x discs I still play dvd's I made with it and all play perfect and its about 3 yrs ago.If you have a Verb maybe you could burn with it and post the log .Like its been said you show all the symptoms of bad media .
  24. like BLU says you would have to shrink the file to dvd5 size or burn dual layer .If you go dual layer use Verbatim discs as they seem to be the only ones that work all the time .
