License: Freeware

Screenshot: Here

Size: 2.5 MB

Operating systems: 98/ME/2000/XP

My Rating: Good - Free, open source and based on CDRtools like his young cousin Infra Recorder. CDrtfe has a very clean and pleasant interface along with some great features and the price; and again like his young cousin Infra Recorder will see what the future brings.

The main features

* Data CDs

* Audio CDs (including CD-Plus)

* XCDs (with optional error protection)

* Video CDs

* Audio track extraction (wav, mp3, ogg, flac, userdefined)

* Project files

* Can be used with commandline options

* Windows Explorer integration

* Multi language support

* DVD support: Data and Video DVDs

* Remote drive support via RSCSI

well I just registered in this forum to say that I personally downloaded and tried CDrtfe 1.3 and clearly it's interface says that isnt capable of building/burning Data DVDs, it can burn Video DVDs though

Operating systems: 98/ME/2000/XP/Vista

My Rating: Good - The price is awesome (free), Infra Recorder is made by the same author of TUGzip and is based on CDRtools technology. This new piece of software promises a lot so ''What will tomorrow be like?'' :woot:

The main features

* Create custom data, audio and mixed-mode projects and record them to physical discs as well as disc images.

* Blank (erase) rewritable discs using four different methods.

* Record disc images.

* Fixate discs (write lead-out information to prevent further data from beeing added to the disc).

* Scan the SCSI/IDE bus for devices and collect information about their capabilities.

* Create disc copies, on the fly and using a temporary disc image.

* Import session data from multi-session discs and add more sessions to them.

* Display disc information.

* Save audio and data tracks to files (.wav and .iso).

I downloaded and tried InfraRecorder version 0.44.1.0 and it failed miserably to build and burn a Data DVD, It said something about a too long filepath for the source files....

I tried ImgBurn and was able to burn sucessfully a DataDVD flawlessly, but looks like ImgBurn doesn't supports multi-session recording

on an aside, how many people are sticking with vista and not reverting back to XP?

Vista Ultimate Edition is my main at present, largely due to the inherent language support which XP is not able to match. I still have XP and Server 2K3 as dual boot. Vista UE has the ability to change language settings per user to the degree that it is like you are using a different language version of the OS. Neither XP nor 2K3 are able to do this.

The newest version of Power2Go (v.6) from Cyberlink is tremendous. It supports a two pane view like most burners (except Nero !!?) for drag'n'dropping, has a great GUI, it's very easy to use and has all the features someone would ever need for everyday tasks... Is this not enough for you?! Please add it to the list as it would make the best nero alternative... Wait, did I say alternative? Power2Go is much better than any version of nero to date!

    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
