[Feature request: only check audio files once per multi-item queue burn]

Alternatively, is there a setting or switch for turning off .wav file verification prior-to-write, altogether?

Thanks,

Matt

[Feature request: only check audio files once per multi-item queue burn]

When burning the same audio cd to multiple drives on a queue, it's necessary to burn to each drive sequentially so they don't start to overheat and get write errors - which will happen with all consumer-grade cd writers after a couple of cds with no pause between burns, in my experience-

So in my queue the 'copies' is always one for each item on the queue, with items shared between the drives.

This unfortunately means that for every burn, IMGburn verifies the wav files - again, and again, and again, and it slows down the whole process a tad.

Would it be possible to store a flag in memory so that if an audio file's been checked once in a queue-burn, it doesn't need to be checked a second time?

That would save a lot of time in this particular scenario-

Cheers,

Mat

Do it again your end then and once you've deleted the top image, look back in the main window (close the queue one) and see what it says in the status bar.

 

 

Sorry for taking a while to come back to this, but my setup is different now from when I originally tried it, and so can't replicate the situation - thereby it is probably something to do with the original drive configuration. If I come across it again I'll type more, but for other people who have the same problem (if they exist), trying changing your drive letters/master slave etc configuration.

Works fine for me too.

 

Once it's saved the queue file and shut down, open the queue file in notepad and see what it contains.

 

btw, nothing you've burnt will be saved in the queue files (even if it's visible in the queue window), only new stuff.

 

 

I'm not using the beta, latest stable.

 

Just tried it again, can't believe it, but was actually going into the queue editor window, using the button to open the queue file, and accidentally opening my .cue file instead of the .idq (or whatever extension) file I had, because it doesn't show up in the open dialog from within the queue editor.

Must've been quite tired last night.

 

So change that to a request for queue files to be openable from within the queue editor window.

Will edit the topic title.

Saving the existing queue on exit from imgburn does not save the entire queue, only the first item.

Doesn't seem to matter which drive that item is burning to.

 

So, process:

 

ctrl-alt-q

set up multiple items via adding one item then ctrl-alt-a to queue again

 

exit queue window

exit imgburn

 

imgburn asks if I want to save queue

save queue

 

open imgburn

ctlr-alt-q

open queue file

 

only one item displayed.

It'll only do that if the currently selected drive is then the same one as the (new) first item in the queue and that drive has no media in it.

 

When I tried it there were three drives:

d:

e:

f:

 

I set up a queue with d, e & f, then deleted the top item in queue (d: img).

E: and F: both had media in them but wouldn't burn. That doesn't seem to correspond with what you're saying. Using the latest version etc.

If you make a queue, setting the settings for all imgs the same then right click and share all images between drives (or selected images),

then delete the first image on the queue, the burn icon greys over and you can't burn the queue.
