Batch Mode Dual Layer Selection

[Jtsagara]

Hi to all,

 

I am using imgburn ( 2.5.0.0 ) to build a DVD from command line with a batch file and a have a small issue,

I take a db backup directly to dvd with build mode , sometimes the total bytes to be written is more than the capacity of a normal DVD for example 5,2Gb and sometimes is smaller 4,1GB

so always I use dual layer disks , but if the total bytes is equal or less from normal dvd imgburn shows a dialog box and informs me

that this size could be written in a normal dvd and not in dual layer disk.

 

Is anyone knows how to override this?

This procedure takes place early in the morning and I don’t want any user interaction

 

Here is my command in batch file:

 

"C:\Program Files\ImgBurn\ImgBurn.exe" /MODE BUILD /START /WAITFORMEDIA /NOIMAGEDETAILS /SRCLIST "D:\Batch Jobs\BackUpBurnDirs.dat" /FILESYSTEM "UDF" /UDFREVISION "1.02" /DEST D: /VERIFY NO /VOLUMELABEL "EPASSSRV_BACKUP" /SPEED MAX /COPIES 1 /PRESERVEFULLPATHNAMES YES /RECURSESUBDIRECTORIES YES /LOG "D:\Batch Jobs\Logs\BackUpToDVD.Log" /LOGAPPEND /LOGHEADER /NOSAVESETTINGS /EJECT YES /CLOSE

 

 

Thanks

There's no way around that at the moment I'm afraid.

 

I will add an 'Underburning' warning option within the settings so you can disable it.

Ok thats fine i will disable 7z ultra compression until you add this option...

 

Thanks

Hi LIGHTNING UK! ,

 

At version 2.5.2.0 you introduced the under burning option, how can i used in batch mode?

 

I already set it in options but with the following command is ignored:

 

"C:\Program Files\ImgBurn\ImgBurn.exe" /MODE BUILD /START /WAITFORMEDIA /NOIMAGEDETAILS /SRCLIST "D:\Batch Jobs\BackUpBurnDirs.dat" /FILESYSTEM "UDF" /UDFREVISION "1.02" /DEST D: /VERIFY NO /VOLUMELABEL "EPASSSRV_BACKUP" /SPEED MAX /COPIES 1 /PRESERVEFULLPATHNAMES YES /RECURSESUBDIRECTORIES YES /LOG "D:\Batch Jobs\Logs\BackUpToDVD.Log" /LOGAPPEND /LOGHEADER /NOSAVESETTINGS /EJECT YES /CLOSE

I can't see a problem with it.

 

That option just controls whether the program warns you that you're burning a SL sized image onto a DL sized disc.

Yes I understand the function of this checkbox but with current settings and the checkbox unselected still I got a warning box in my job waiting for reply.... so it waits for user interaction , take a look in the log…

May be is that the job runs as scheduled task without a logged on user and imgburn doesn’t read the registry settings?

That's a different option

 

You should be on 2.5.5.0 now btw.

[Jtsagara]

 

how i can overide this?

 

 

( as for version this site is ~ 400km from me so i will do the update next week )

 

 

Thanks...

[LIGHTNING UK!]

You can't.

 

But I've just added another option to get around that prompt.

[Jtsagara]

So next version ?

[Jtsagara]

Lightning Uk,

 

Have you add a related option on 2.5.6 ?

[LIGHTNING UK!]

Yes.
