Re: filmscanners: OT: burning CDs/easy cd creator



Bill, If you are using the Plextor 12X writer, it has "Burnproof" built 
into the hardware, which gives it capabilities most other drives
do not have.  Burnproof, a Sanyo design, allows for the drive to prevent 
buffer underruns by being able to relocate the point where the disk 
stopped writing, due to lack of data, and then hook back to it and 
continue.  This ability also allows for you to surf the web or do other 
activities while you are burning.

I have a Plextor 8X, which does not have burnproofing, and I find Easy 
CD fragile but usable.  I have not found I am able to write directly 
from my 44x CD-ROM drive even though it does support audio extraction 
and is, by test, fast enough for 8X copying.

There have been some complaints about Easy CD from others who have found 
other products more reliable for their needs.  I suspect there are so 
many variables that we may never know if success or failure is due to a 
specific software package or just the particular system setup.
