I really don't remember if you have to do a full format the first time you use a disc, as I have been using the same DVD+RWs for years. It's probably the same for CD-RW, but I haven't tested those as I said that I don't like to use ImgBurn for CD burning. Actually it will write to DVD+RW discs (didn't test DVD-RW) but it takes FOREVER! It does this really long re-format of the disc and appears to go into La La Land where you think it is doing nothing, but if you wait at least 20 minutes it may eventually start writing to the disc. Use an earlier version of imgburn that doesnt support audio cd burning.Another problem i found is imgburn wont write on dvdrw/cdrw discs. Then again Nero may be to blame, but don't discount the possibility of user error here.Īnyway, what you say that happened is logically impossible - burning 350 MB of data won't exceed a 700 MB disc unless something unintended is going on, like converting the files to CD audio format. There may be all kinds of crazy limits on number of files in a single folder, depth of folders and so on, none of which are Nero's fault. The device may not support CD-RW discs and guess what these geniuses burned to? Yep - CD-RW. VBR is often a problem too on many devices that play MP3s on discs. People will do odd things with their MP3 files like use a bit rate higher/lower than their player supports.

Some idiots burn in multi-session and then get angry when part of what they burned can't be read, when in fact almost all standalone players are unable to correctly read multi-session discs. Some players may not accept Joliet format or long file names. Keep in mind that any of the following user errors will be blamed on Nero, when in fact the problem is the person who burned it. I don't know about the post you are referring to. I am anything but a Nero defender and I have roundly criticized Nero on these forums plenty of times. In another post I was told that others have had problems with mp3's in nero. I use Nero for all my needs until I found my data mp3 discs don't play in some players.
