Off topic - Need software recommendation

Need a software recommendation.

 

I want to burn multisession CD-RW.

 

Would also be nice to burn multisession DVD but not sure that's possible

 

But here's the catch

 

I use an older PC (no WinXP). The software has to be

 

- small

 

That eliminates Nero and the Roxio stuff.

 

To me ImgBurn is the ultimate. Exactly what I look for in software

 

It is absolutely brilliant.

 

- small!

- fast!

- kybd shortcuts!

- cmd line switches!

- reliable; never crashes!

- smart looking interface

 

But it only does ISO. If I'm short on disc space this can be a problem

 

I now Alcohol 120% will work for my purpose. But I'm wondering if there are any other programs out there that fit my description.

In the BUGS forum?!?!!?

 

Please look where you're posting before posting.

 

ImgBurn v2 can write files on-the-fly to cd /dvd.

 

It won't do multisession though, just erase the disc and reburn the entire disc.

 

Obviously v2 isn't out yet though!

 

(oh and I've moved your post to 'Chat')

It won't do multisession though...

Yet... Nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more. A nod's as good as a wink to a blind bat!

 

This feature along with the ability to create ISO from unprotected CD/DVD and the ability to copy unprotected CD's/DVD's would mean I could elope to Las Vegas with IB, get married at a drive-through by Elvis, and burn to our hearts content, never to be seen again.

lol seriously, multisession is so far down the todo list that it's pretty much not even on it.

So " Boss" when do us mere mortals get our grubby mits on it.....?

there shouldnt be a todo list

 

imgburn is just fine the way it is

 

'todo' lists are probably the reason so many burning programs are monstrosities

 

i apologise for my hasty post

 

dumb and dumber.... i later realised burnatonce (i.e. cdrdao) can do multisession

 

multisession is useful when you need to burn and you have limited disk space for a huge iso (and you're afraid to delete the original files)

 

apologies again for breaking a heap of forum etiquette rules

 

i wont post again

 

thats a promise

[LIGHTNING UK!]

There are very few rules here but the 'Bugs' forum clearly wasn't anything like the right place for your post.

 

I've never liked multisession personally.

It makes disc duplication much more of a pain in the arse and opens you up to a whole load more 'possible' problems where drives can't read the X session properly. It's much better to stick with a clean disc and single session.
