Nero 8 is coming


Recommended Posts

Huh, thats just werid... Nero isn't a disease or a virus....

Blah, blah, blah, I can't configure my installs, blah, blah, blah - this thread isn't for Nero bashing...

blah blah blah but its for your rants ?

bloat, just customize your installs to do make Nero do what you wanna do and stop whinning... just liek with any program that is super-feature based..... Nero is a really sweet burning program and you can get it to do what you need it to do if you read and get up off your asses.

Anywoo,

It'll be interesting to see how that Recover Data bit turns out in the release...

yea like i want to shell out 100.00 to only install 1 part of the program :rolleyes:

What's new in Nero 8?

- Nero StartSmart - Direct feature access makes it easy to burn and gives you quick access to your multimedia projects!

- Recover data from damaged discs with ease

- Import and share photos and videos with one click to and from Internet communities like My Nero, YouTube, and MySpace

- Fast application start-up

- Expanded features for editing and authoring video files

And I read a new interface... this is kinda worth the upgrade of about 40-50 euros or so.

Plus the fact that I'm a Nero-kinda fanboy :p

Shame, Nero used to be The Don. How anyone can be a fan of bloated software is beyond me, I am willing to bet you use Real Player too?

Because everyone is different, and thus, some people may find bloatware to be helpful?

To be fair its only bloat if you dont use the features. As above I use ashampoo, but I'm sure there are people out there that love the fact Nero is an all in one media handling application. Personally its not my cup of tea and I'll use other apps to do the other functionality but some people will surely appreciate it.

So what it is?

- it leaves file types used and created by itself after uninstall

- leaves files assosiated with the uninstalled product

- leaves options in the Autoplay menu's

- leaves codecs after uninstall just in case you want to still use them to play avis, huh...

- changes the default mpeg2 decoder without any question - this can ruin a Media Center with ex. a Hauppauge card

I spent hours cleaning a PC after a fully normally installed and uninstalled Nero. Yes, the original user should have:

a, used Nero Lite/Micro/Small or whatever hacked version of this wonder

b, configured it properly and pray that it will install only the things the user selected

c, used an alternative and sit back, and we both would have been happy.

"Not a virus" - you're right. A virus is usually unnoticable. But after a Nero install (and even uninstall) you see it everywhere: picture viewing, movie watching, system tray, Autoplay, picture import from memory card, video converting.

I really don't understand the bitching. Bloat bloat bloat blah blah blah. You don't like the extra programs? So don't bloody install them! I only install nero express and I'm more than happy with it. You can uncheck all other stuff it comes with. It's not hard. Takes 10 seconds at most.

So you think downloading a 2 GB file to only install 100mb of components isn't bloat.

No, not personally. Downloading a 2GB file only to install all 2GB of components without getting the option to chose would be bloat.

em3, see the attached image.

Radish?

so you enjoy spending money on something that you will only use 10% of ?

please nero = BLOAT

I installed ashampoo Burning studio 7.1 yesterday and while it's ok for basic burning it does not have most of the options that Nero 7 has, this means I will be sticking with Nero Burning ROM for awhile.

Right now I have installed:

1. Nero Burning ROM

2. Nero Cover Designer

3. Nero Wave Editor

4. Nero Vision

5. Nero Tools

6. Nero SoundTrax

Total: 178 + 109 = 287 megs (which includes ahead folder in common files folder)

Ashampoo = 55 megs

    • Meta launches new AI glasses in 26 styles and Muse Spark multimodal capabilties by Pradeep Viswanathan Meta today announced a new line of Meta Glasses in partnership with EssilorLuxottica. The new AI glasses build on the company’s existing smart glasses portfolio, which is sold under the Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta brands. The new Meta Glasses start at just $299, are compatible with prescription lenses, and will be available in 26 styles across different colors, lenses, and frames. At launch, Meta Glasses will be available in three frame styles. The Meta Adventurer features a clean rectangular design and comes in Standard and Large sizes. The Meta Fury is a bolder frame for users who want a stronger look. Meta Glasses by Kylie is a slim oval frame designed in collaboration with Kylie Jenner. Similar to existing Meta AI Glasses, the new Meta Glasses include a dedicated action button that can be used to quickly access Meta AI or launch a favorite feature. They also feature open-ear speakers for calls, music, and more. Meta has also included a multi-mic array with wind noise reduction for calls and messaging. Users can capture photos and videos hands-free using voice commands. Meta claims more than eight hours of battery life, while the portable charging case can provide up to 40 additional hours. As expected, Meta Glasses come pre-loaded with Meta AI powered by Muse Spark from day one. Muse Spark is the first model from Meta Superintelligence Labs with improved multimodal capabilities. The same Meta AI upgrade is also now available on existing Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta Glasses in the US and Canada via an update. With the Muse Spark-powered AI assistant, Meta AI in the new glasses can provide smarter answers, understand what the user is seeing, and help with daily tasks such as calendar management and navigation. Meta also announced an upcoming feature called the dynamic photo feature, which captures multiple frames and recommends the best one. Pedestrian navigation is also coming soon to these glasses. Meta is also adding support for 14 new live translation languages, including Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, and Korean. The new Meta Glasses are available starting today through Meta.com, Best Buy, Amazon, LensCrafters, Sunglass Hut, and select retailers.
    • is that a personal preference? whether it is or isn't, i get where you're coming from. i try to get and use fully open sourced applications whenever i can but there are instances where i find a superior product that is closed sourced. in these cases i do my best to learn about the company, who operates it, their background, parent and sub structure etc. to some extent, depending on "the smell test". i really believe that Syncback is really and truly something great. even if you don't use it, it's always worth a recommendation to someone else, especially if that someone else is not very computer literate. for someone of your calibre you, you'll manage just fine with Syncthing, no doubt about it.
    • I agree, especially if it is cloud sourced, like this one is.. but I wouldn't say no to a local AI assistant similar to the Zettlab one which would be really helpful with my large Photos library, but also to perform tasks like installing Docker apps rather than me having to do it via Docker Compose, but I don't think we're quite there yet. Synology Photos is somewhat AI, you can ask it to search for certain people (if you have tagged them and it will attempt to match similar photos to the person) and if you put a search term in for "cars" for example, it will show you all photos with a car.
