Schedule a burn automatically


Recommended Posts

Posted

I would like to be able to use imgburn and set up a saved project file and burn it automatically at the same time every day. I am aware that I will have to make sure there is a blank CD/DVD disc in the tray to do this. Is there a way to do this automatically? I was thinking the task scheduler might be able to do this but I haven't been able to get it to do it automatically.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Use the CLI stuff (look in the ReadMe.txt file) and use Task Scheduler (perhaps call a *.bat file that then calls ImgBurn).

Thanks For the Reply. I didn't even know that there was a read me.

 

I was able to successfully Burn a DVD Here is the command that I ended up using for anyone else that is wanting to automatically do a Data Backup on DVD.

 

C:\PROGRA~1\ImgBurn\ImgBurn.exe /MODE Build /SRC "C:\Documents and Settings\Joyce\Desktop\disc1.ibb" /START /ROOTFOLDER Yes

Here is the command that I am using from within Task Scheduler.

 

C:\PROGRA~1\ImgBurn\ImgBurn.exe /MODE Build /SRC "C:\Documents and Settings\Joyce\Desktop\disc1.ibb" /START /ROOTFOLDER Yes /closesuccess

 

What is the picture called in the read me so I can say OK?

 

Thanks,

Alright I figured it out I think.

 

C:\PROGRA~1\ImgBurn\ImgBurn.exe /MODE Build /SRC "C:\Documents and Settings\Joyce\Desktop\disc1.ibb" /START /ROOTFOLDER Yes /NOIMAGEDETAILS /closesuccess

 

It was that not having /NOIMAGEDETAILS that gave me that message. After including that in my command it is now burning with no intervention from me. I will let you know if doesn't work.

 

Thanks,
