Cd Burning Software

[ScoobyDooooo]

Oh my goodness, I feel sorry for you regarding some of your replies.
Well I"LL help...
Believe me, I learned from trial and error regarding burning software.
I have the Roxio EZ dvd creator 6 but I find that their programs constantly freeze,
they are funny with recognizing the type of burner you have and the program
itself is around $65.00. The only program that I use out of that package
is the "DVD Builder".

The EASIEST program I have is "Power Producer" which can be purchased online
as a download from "Cyberlink.com". I've had much success with this program but for some reason you have to download "Sun Java 2" (free software you can get online, if you don't already have it) before installing it. I forgot how much
I paid for it, I think it was either $29.99 or $39.00. They also can send you a
"backup" CD for an extra $4.00 which is helpful if you need to reinstall the program.

Another is "DVD Squeeze" which is also a downloaded package. I ordered this some time ago and it is useful for converting files into different formats, etc.
Avi, etc. This one is pretty good and it comes with TONS of additional software
such as FlaskMPEG, Divx, etc.

Another I have is called "PowerPack" DVD to AVI which is great for converting
movie files. Problem with this one though, it's a little difficult to understand
and I've had problems making movies more compacted.

Another I have is "Dr. Divx" which pretty much does the same as DVD Squeeze...
it's just more expensive.

Hope I have been helpful. All of the above I purchased as a download online.
Some of which I don't have the exact web address, but if you surf a bit
just using their software titles, I'm sure you would find a link.

Boy. The fact that you don't have the patience to wait for an answer and that you don't have the patience to wait for your computer during CD burning shows me that is where the problem is.

And telling us that you will go and get Kazaa Gold or Kazaa Plus??? Go right ahead! It sounds like that's what you need.

B) "To Somebody"...
I think the original poster wasn't sure how the burning software works... it does
take a while to burn... maybe he or she didn't know that.... I didn't realize how
long it takes at first either.... I assumed my computer was just slow. I even
purchased a larger hard drive! duuuhhh!!! Now I know...

So to the original poster, ALL burnings can take a while no matter what software you use, it's not like recording on a VHS or on a music cassette. If you look closely at a music CD or a movie DVD it has "grooves" on it.., something like a "record", that's if some of you youngsters know what records are anymore. (Some time ago I once asked a friend of mine's little kid who his favorite singer was, he said "Michael Jackson", I told him when I was his age, I liked the "Beatles"... He said "Who?" LOL...!!! Now THAT made me feel realllly good, huh---LOL!!! ) So it takes a while for any burner to create on a blank CD, especially if it's a movie.
Good Luck!

Just my .02. When I burn, I shut everything else off. I usually reboot & then turnoff my AV (previously scanned to be burned media of course), PF, and everything else but my UPS. Then I use Nero 6.0.0.15. I usually burn @16-20x vs my burners max of 32x. Big deal takes 5-8 minutes usually. Then I reboot & get back on the net. No muss, no fuss vs possible failed or corrupted burns & other complications. Saves tossing messed up cdr's in the bin.
