using CD-RW


Question

some days ago i bought a Sony D-JC501 MP3 CD Player and its just perfect :D

i never imagined that earphones can produce such a good sound.

I'd like to add songs to a CD right after i download them, but i never used CD-RW :blink:

can someone post a tutorial of how to use CD-RW like it was a regular drive so i could add and delete files??

btw, i hate programs that run in the background and i dont mind if the program costs money :yes:

If you have XP, you can do it without any extra stuff. Not sure, but I don't think you'll find anything that doesn't run in the background short of the XP stuff. If you don't run XP, I think Nero might have something that does this stuff or Easy CD Creator might, I know past versions before Roxio took over had something to write to CDs without opening up a burning software.

Yep, that's why it's called rewriteable, you can erase it, use it again, erase it again. But you don't need a tutorial, if you have XP or something running in the background, it's as simple as drag and drop ;)

I don't think you'll find a program that doesn't run in the background though...even XP has something running in the background. You can always close Roxio after you're done copying files if you don't want it always running in the background :whistle:

You cant ruin a CD-RW disk, you can always fully erase it (format it) and it is like new :p

actually, that's not true :whistle:

one time i was burning a cd-rw. there was a storm in my area and my power went out. the disk wasn't readable, and i tried every tool i could find to try and erase the disk. even in different drives. nothing. :cry:

so, however unlikely it is, it CAN happen :shifty:

cool :cool:

i'm formatting the disc with InCD now...i see it takes a lot of time :s 4 minutes passed and its still less then 20% :crazy:

Yeah, the first format on a CDRW to the UDF file system takes a while; after that it won't be as long for a quick file system format if you choose to do so again. :cool:

Ok this is what you can do:

1) Use the engine in XP to write to CDRW. This is enabled by default and runs in the background.

2) Use DirectCD from Roxio. This makes use of UDF and allows you to use your CDRW as a floppydrive. Also runs in the background.

3) Use InCD form Ahead. Same as DirectCD, uses UDF and runs in the background.

4) Get a burner that supports Mount Rainer. It is basicly the same as DirectCD or InCD only done in hardware... so nothing runs in the background.

I think the easiest way would be #1, just use the engine in XP (which is actually built by Roxio if I'm correct).

i've tested my mp3 player, multisession works with it :D

but when i delete stuff in multisession it acts kinda strangly :wacko:

it doesnt free their space and it adds them back next time and stuff like that, but they appear not to exist when i access the disc :s

    • Isn't the CPU used to calculate the parity for the RAID? If so, the combination of SSDs and 10GBe might make the CPU more important
    • yeah GSMA began working to enable end to end encryption between android and iphone last year and apparently a new standard was developed. apple has said that they would implement this in "future software updates" but i haven't heard anything since march, the time this was all reported on. shortly after, i read on forbes that the FBI suggests not sending texts between iphone and android because they're unencrypted. i use signal to chat with my wife but i'd rather just use messages tbh (she has an iphone), i'm not really a 3rd party guy haha
    • Well, I did not like the trailer for the project he went to work on also, but why do you think he should waste time with this… did you love the season 2? Maybe I am missing out after the crap I saw in first season ep1-3? I love the first last of us game… while not the BEST it was one of the games that I will remember for the EXPERIENCE it game me… last of us 2 was not on the same level at all and the show🤔 complete miss in my experience of the first few level
