New freeware plugin available: CD/DVD Burner

Loc2262 · Post by *Loc2262 » 2005-03-02, 14:19 UTC

Well, I need to rely on what the FoxBurner SDK offers me.

I don't do the low-level burner/cddrive access stuffs myself, that would be for sure too much (especially for a freeware project).

But there's a nice addon to FoxBurner, namely an AudioGrabber, which I plan to make a plugin for too. Works nicely here, can grab audio tracks and store them as Wav, MP3, Ogg or WMA, and supports FreeDB lookups.

Does not implement methods though to grab tracks from copy-protected audio CDs, that's forbidden in Germany. But if your CD-ROM can read those "out of its own" without hassle... that's your call then.

To Loc2262: When the next version (maybe containing ripper/converter) will be released?

I'm doing some final stuffs for the 0.9.3 (multilanguage support, changing some dialogs etc.), and am waiting for feedback about the "video dvds not playing on standalone devices" problem, then it will be ready.

Ripper and converter though will be a seperate project and plugin, would be unnecessarily complicated to incorporate that in one.

Any idea on when this new ripper/converter plugin could be released?

I'm currently writing an own verification function; the FoxBurner one is too buggy it seems.

Yes, because it taking 3 min to burn an cdr and 10 for verification

Thank you for that great plugin & keep you good job !

As soon as it's ready.

No idea whatsoever, whenever I have time to start working on it. Could be done next week, could take a month. No pressure please.

Is it possible that this great plugin doesnt run under windows 98?
Yesterday I tried to use it on the pc of my dad but it crashed (i I left the debuglog there...)

Everything's possible. With only the description "it crashes" I cannot say anything.

Need to know what you did, what happened, and most importantly, the bugreport.txt that the exception handler creates.

(In general I'd say, since I don't have any Win9x machines here anymore, I can't really give support for that or guarantee that it works. But it should - if it does not and if I can see what goes wrong without being able to test it here, I'll fix it.)

What a hot little Prog! Just what everyone needs.

Is there a way to save a project for burning later?
