tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Hello all, I KNOW this is a stupid question, I have tried to search it but come up with 0. originally when I got imgburn I would burn a disc & imgburn window would stay up so that I could just take out the finished disc & put in another if I needed more than 1 copy. (I never change settings on imgburn, cause to be honest, I know the program knows more than I do! Anyway, now that I have updated, when imgburn finishes 1 disc the window closes. I have tried to figure out what to do in settings but I'm afraid I will screw something up! I'm really sorry to waste your time like this but could you please just tell me how to keep the window up?? THANKS SO MUCH
Cynthia Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Sounds as you have enabled the option to close the program when done. Main Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> Write tab -> 'Check 'Close Program''
tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 Thanks for the answer! close program is currently UN checked. Should I check it?? THANKS
Cynthia Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Then it's not that. Perhaps you checked the same option in the write mode window (the window you see when you burn)?
tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 OK, so just to make sure something had not been accidentally changed, I restored all defaults in settings. I have gone through each tab & each "close program box" is UN checked. Same problem.
Cynthia Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 With window closes, do you mean that the program ImgBurn shuts is self down or just that the write window disappears? Do you see any ImgBurn window open after the write is done?
tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 (edited) That is correct. The program shuts down. No imgburn window at all. If I knew more about what I was doing, I think (from other stuff I have read on here) that I could still make another dvd but when I open imgburn again, since I don't know how to get back what I was just working on, I have to start all over. THANKS Edited February 22, 2009 by tml74047
Cynthia Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 The only two things that can make the program shut itself down after a write is either that the option 'Close Program' is enabled in the write window. The other thing is that it crashes. Is it also disabled in the Main Menu -> Settings -> tab Verify -> Close Program ? Edit: Do you start ImgBurn by yourself or is it another program that starts it for you (like DVD Flick/DVDFab).
tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 verify tab also shows "close program" UN checked. DVD Flick starts imgburn.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 DVD Flick probably tells ImgBurn to close itself down if the burn was successful. If you want to burn multiple copies, use ImgBurn as a standalone application.
tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 ummmmm OK, How do I do that, please?
Cynthia Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 ImgBurn is currently installed in this location: C:\Program Files\DVD Flick\imgburn You can browse to that location and right click on the ImgBurn.exe file and send it as a short cut to the desktop and start it from there or just install a separate installation of ImgBurn. Download the program for here: www.imgburn.com - that will install a nice icon on your desktop. Then when it's started - browse to the location were DVDFlick saved your ouput DVD files and import them in ImgBurn. You can read how to import those files and burn them in this guide. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=4632
tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 OH NO! I'm starting to panic here! so, if I do that, will I have to then turn imgburn on, DVD fick won't do it anymore?? I really like being able to set everything up & go to work & come home to a new movie. But if that is all I can do I will do it. I have really grown to count on dvd flick & imgburn handling things for me, cause I'm afraid I will screw things all up! Thanks
tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 Cynthia, as I was sitting here typing my last reply ( using DVD flick) imgburn popped up to make the DVD, I noticed that in the window that came up, the close program box was CHECKED, how can that be, if they are ALL UN checked in settings??
Cynthia Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 DVD Flick changes the settings in ImgBurn on it's own when it launches ImgBurn and then when it closes down ImgBurn it restores them to how they were before. I can't find any setting in DVD Flick that allows you to set the number of copies. Perhaps post such a request/suggestion in the DVD Flick forum? On the other hand, you need to get home from work to insert a new disc for the second copy and then return back to work again.
tml74047 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 I guess I should not have updated DVD flick ( it didn't do this before)!!! Thanks so much for your help & I sure hope you are in a different time zone than me, cause GIRL YOU BEEN UP ALL NIGHT!!
