Default Finding subsequent volumes, after 1st burn - 05-01-2007 , 02:39 PM






This was easy in Win 98, not in my new XP. Choose option to burn further
data files at later date, then the next burn is all that's visible. How is
it done, make later additions of file groups at some time after a first
burn, and be able to view/copy/execute the first batch of files?

Since you don't identify your software, the "how" can only be answered
generically. To include an earlier volume when writing a later one,
simply import the earlier before burning the later.

NOTE: You can only import one volume to any subsequent one. Of course,
by chaining, you can import 1 into 2, then 2 (including 1) into 3 and so
on. But if you forgot to import 1 into 2, when you go to write 3, you
cannot bring in both 1 and 2.

Nero 5.5.10.56 (latest for 5.*).
"Import" ? - Whatever that is (a "saved" ISO?) , it wasn't necessary when
running Win 98. Property sheet for the dvd drive gave the volume ID's.
Highlighting one enabled exploring its contents.
The contents of th first burn *must* be on the cd somewhere. Odd that it is
hidden.
I never used an ISO file. Could you please explain the what and how of it,
and what importing is? Thanks four valuable inputs.

I don't do multiple data sessions - with ample HD space and low-cost
CD-Rs, it doesn't make much sense to me. So I cannot tell you where the
import function is on Nero. Years ago, I used another program where the
option was evident, but to investigate I'd have to write a multisession
disc with Nero 5 - and I trust someone with experience doing so can
provide the answer for you.

But this has nothing to do with ISO images. An "ISO" file is an image in
ISO 9660 format of a data disc. Other image formats are available:
CUE/BIN is a near standard, others are proprietary. Those permit imaging
data, audio and other formats.
