I'm looking for a way to measure the average overburning capabilities of a stack of media. I've found places lke http://www.soniccontrol.com/tech/cdr/capacity/ and http://www.grabware.com/cd_cap.php3 that only list the 650MB range of media. Has anyone seen a more up to date resource? -- UOY must...

My TEAC DV-W58E drive no longer reads DVDs.This was supplied with my Dell computer and came with Sonic Record Now. I need to replace this drive and I'm sure I will also need new software, as the Sonic is OEM. I haven't been thrilled with the s/w and will gladly replace it also. What is the current...

Win98SE, PSP 8.0 Couple of questions from a long-time, part-time, non-artist, user of PSP: 1) Is there some way I can sort the Commands in the Toolbar's Customize window? It's not bad enough not knowing which Category to use for Commands, but the haphazard sorting of commands is frustrating. 2)...

Hi I have an .mp3 audio book which is too big to fit on a cd So I need to break it into acceptable sized pieces to fit on each cd. I have Adobe audition, but I'm not sure how the time length of tracks relate to cd size/capacity. (Using 80 min cd's) Martin ©¿©¬

Hi! Would physically cutting the regular sized CDR disk to a "mini-CDR" sized disk work ( record and playback normally ) or would it confuse the CDR unit electronics/ laser assemnbly? ... or even cause possible damage to the unit ?

Hi everyone, I have this old drive, but it seems to be able to write only 74Mn - 650Mb Cd-r. Some forums said that it's posible to flash the drive with the version 1.10, 2.10, 3.10 or 4.10 to burn cd's until 80Mn - 700Mb. Someone can explain me the differences between these 4 differents...

Has anyone successfully flashed a CD526D? I got the update from www.cyberdrive.de but the F1198 program doesn't work as expected, specifically the program can't read the existing flash memory from the drive into a file e.g. F1198 3 R BACKUP.HEX as shown in the documentation either the F1198...

What's the 411 on Cyberdrive? A year has passed since last firmware update. Any info appreciated.

EXCELLENT CASH INCOME I started out with $6. Now, I am making thousands. I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars...

Hi, I did a google search but couldn't find what I need. Maybe someone here can help. I have a Sony Vaio PC that has a Samsung SC-140C CD and a Pioneer DVR-106D DVDRW Drives. I'm ripping my CD collection using EAC and compressing to flac format. Speed isn't an issue, but I'd like to get as good...

Hello Dan, I've addressed this to you since you seem knowledgable and assisted the previous posted. I'll paste the thread below this for your reference. Since I'm having precisely the same issue I'm wondering if you might please assist me. Note I'm at firmware rev A105 and still can't burn to...

When writing a multisession CD, I know that the overheads is 23MB for the first session and 14MB for each subsequent sessions in TAO mode. What is the size of the overhead if I were to write a CD in DAO mode? (I know it's not a multisession CD).

While I understand (conceptually, at least) the difference between TAO and DAO, which will give best results (i.e., fewer errors) with (a) data back-up, and (b) music? Note: I only use single sessions and want a few seconds between songs, and I want data to be as accurate as possible)?

Can anybody recommend a drive that supports DAO/96?

Recently, I burned a cd with CDBurner XP-Pro 3 and came out with a disk full of tracks. With 'explorer', I can't look inside these tracks. The display just shows 'Track1.dat', etc. They play fine with the CD player that came with Win98. I burned it as a music disk,not expecting what I...

A neighbor gave me a blank CD to save some computer files. I've used disks from that box to record music, but I the computer hasn't let me record data. Online I found advice to somebody with a similar problem: are you sure you're using a data CD? I hadn't known there was a difference. A big...

Hi all, I'm trying to understand how I need to configure my computer for data backup. I currently have Norton Ghost and Nero Express 5.5 (the latter came with my CD-R) and I'm trying to decide whether I also need Nero full and / or Arrowkey AccuBurn-R. Any opinions? Regards,

Suddenly something funny has happened to Data Burning in Burn4free and as well as in Easy Cd Creator Basic 5, that the cds burned under the command of "Data Cd" have turned out as Audio Cd with .cda extention dated 1/1/1995 and load wm player. Any explanation or suggestion would be appreciated....

Is there a difference between a data cdr and a audio cdr.can you tell the difference in sound quality. Thanks..

I need to save documents from Microsoft Word and Pagemaker on a CD-RW, then be able to use the CD in another computer, make changes, and save back to the same CD. Who can tell me what software to buy to do this? I could do this with Easy CD Creator 5 but it is not compatible with Windows XP Pro...
