Using Batch file to write images


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

 

I'm trying to use ImgBurn for automatic backups of different folders of my system.

Currently I'm using one batch to create ISO-files and after that I would like to use a second batch file to burn the created images.

 

The creation of the images is working fine and without any problems.

 

But as soon as I try to write the image to disc nothing happens.

The batch just opens ImgBurn and does not do anything.

 

Attached you will find the two batch files - perhaps I have missed something there?!

 

set jahr=%date:~-4%
set monat=%date:~-7,2%
set tag=%date:~-10,2%

for /f %%i in (liste.txt) do "ImgBurn.exe" /MODE BUILD /BUILDMODE IMAGEFILE /SRC "%%i\" /DEST "ISOs\%jahr%-%monat%-%tag%__%%i.iso" /FILESYSTEM "UDF" /UDFREVISION "2.01" /VOLUMELABEL "%jahr%-%monat%-%tag%__%%i"  /rootfolder yes /start /close /noimagedetails

 

 

set brenner="e:"

for /f %%i in ('dir isos\*.iso /b') do "ImgBurn.exe" /MODE WRITE /SCR "ISOs\%%i" /DEST %brenner% /COPIES 1 /SPEED 10x /ERASE /DELETEIMAGE YES /START / CLOSE /WAITFORMEDIA /LOG "%jahr%-%monat%-%tag%.log"

Does it open up and load the correct source file?

 

What does it say in the status bar? Is the drive actually ready to burn? Is the big 'Write' button enabled?

It is just opening the main window of ImgBurn and does not do anything more.

It seems just to be the startup window where I can select the mode etc.

Typo there, it should be /SRC :thumbup:

It's /SRC, not /SCR.

 

Also, your /CLOSE switch has a space between the / and the CLOSE.

 

EDIT: Doh too slow!

 

This is a better line (handles spaces in image file names)...

 

for /f "tokens=*" %%i in ('dir ISOs\*.iso /b') do "ImgBurn.exe" /MODE WRITE /SRC "ISOs\%%i" /DEST %brenner% /COPIES 1 /SPEED 10x /ERASE /DELETEIMAGE YES /START /CLOSE /WAITFORMEDIA /LOG "%jahr%-%monat%-%tag%.log"

I have been looking at it since two days and did not find that small typo...
