I remember reading this, but I don't remember why you shouldn't stack cdrs, or if it's really that important. To save space, I tend to stack up burned cdrs in old spindle cases. I use jewel cases for the cdrs I use more often, but I stack those up in a pile also. Is this bad practice? Is there...

I just had occasion to look for Cool Edit to see if there were upgrades for my version 1.1 from several years ago. Well, what do you know, Adobe up and bought him out in May of 2003. Price is now up to $99 for an upgrade to the Adobe version. I hope David and Bob reaped good rewards for all their...

I updated to 5.5 a while ago, and I'm now having a problem with reading files written to CD-R. The problem is that for all intents and purposes, the files ARE written to the CD, but when I try to access it through My Compute\ there is no name showing on the drive, and I can't read any files,...

I have a CD/DVD burner which can handle CD-RW, DVD-RW and DVD+RW media, but neither Mount Rainier nor DVD-RAM. So far I have managed to do packet writing (i. e. writing to a RW medium as if it were a hard disk) using Nero InCD, but those disks then couldn't be read on my Linux box (Xubuntu...

Attempting to burn a avi movie to a cdr with Nero 5.5. Some of the time the movie is recorded upside down backward. But not all avi files. The file in question plays correctly from the HDD. So far never effects an mpg file. Thoughts on a solution will be appreciated. Thanks, Michael

Is there a simple program that can read a CD-R and tell who its manufacturer was? I believe EAC has this feature, but its a bit of overkill. Thanks Deke -- "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

I have a Plextor external PX-708UF drive where inserting a CD (burned, blank, or manufactured stamped) does not get recognized. The light on the burner turns off and Windows does not think anything is there. However if I load a DVD (burned, blank, or stamped), it works fine. Is there a separate...
