Multisession CD-R Issue

I withdraw my earlier post since I was only speaking of using a given
version.
Unfortunately I could list a whole bunch of stuff that runs under win98 but
won't work under xp. Let's hope this doesn't become the norm for new MS
releases.

EZCD 5 can't correctly import multisession tracks made by other
software ... This includes EZCD 3.5, EZCD 4.02e
SNIP

Well that must be it then, because if I remember correctly the original
CD-R was made with an earlier version of EZCD. I had to upgrade when I
installed XP. I got the same symptoms of EZCD saying that there were no
sessions to import.

Case closed.

Thanks again!

Since upgrading my EZ CD Creator Platinum from 5.1 to 5.3.5.10, the
program doesn't remember sessions. When I manually try to import a
session it says there is no session to import.

A post from Adrian indicated that SP2 threw in a fresh monkey wrench.

I do not believe that Roxio has a release of ECDC for Win2K SP2 at this
point. Your choice: SP1 with ECDC or SP2 without.
======================

BTW, Nero, among other burn softwares, works on Win2k/SP2 -- without
removing the monkey wrench.

(Note: cRoxio must not consider Win2k/SP2 as Win2k, )
( as it claims Win2k compatible. )

Mike is correct at this time, SP2 broke a load more stuff.

Isn't it funny how your software *always* gets broke by MS, or
something someone else did? When are you guys and girls ever going
to learn? Sooooooooo many other CDR packages install, uninstall
WITHOUT screwing up ones system, and RUN just fine on win9x, win2k,
win2ksp1, win2ksp2. No wonder you've put your head in the sand, its the
best you can do.

I'm Adapcrap/Roxio free, don't have time to debug the betas you sell
time after time, that never work as advertised, tech support sucks,
and the only thing they really care about is getting the product out
ther door, so they can take our money. Tons of bugs never fixed, and
with each 'release' we get to have 'fun' finding the same old ones
back again, plus for a spin, some news ones.

You guys need to take this to your own newsgroup, and drop out of the
general CDR group. No wonder you have a subscription news-mailer, so
its not totally in the public eye, and you can filter all you like.

Start a new group like; comp.publish.cdrsoftware.roxio

OK I'll let you go back and "work" on some more stuff that just got
broke, have fun, Later!

We try to avoid releasing software with critical bugs

Mike Richter (Slimy Friggin SOB) spewed:

I have received an email from Roxio advising me to download an
update for my Roxio Platinum. Would you advise me to do this.

if you are going to update such software, have a complete
system backup first so you can restore to your current conditions
even if the update fails.

Is a backup essential now even for an update of Easy CD Cremator?

======================
From: Mike Richter (Slimy Friggin SOB)

I consider an image backup essential
before any major software installation

I suspect that those who have trouble are also CARELESS
- perhaps THOUGHTLESS - about their use of their computer
systems.

Why any competent computer user would fail to 'buy'
such inexpensive insurance is beyond me.

I am trying to add data...to DVD
My software is Easy Cd Creator 5 basic.

My experience with DVD-ROM is limited
(and I've not used ECDC for the job),

but I have never seen an option to add sessions
to the format.

The only supported DVD-ROM format I have seen is DAO. === Multi NO

My guess is that ECDC 5 is incorrect in offering the === Ezcd NO
option and that it cannot link the earlier sessions.

At this point, there seems to be no way.

There is a UDF standard. At least until recently...
only Roxio was fully compliant with it.

I believe that XP's read capability is also fully compliant.
