    Can I extract DVD audio track to CD audio?

    Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I have looked all over. I own several Concert DVD's. I would like to extract the 2 chl stereo soundtrack and burn it to CD so I can listen in the car. I have Nero 6.3.1.25 and dvd decrypter 3.5.1.0. I installed Nero Vision Express and Recode 2.1 but it says...

    Program to force cd/rw erase???

    Hello all...long time since I last posted! I have a few cd/rw's that Nero and CCD will not erase. My wife used them for STOMP backup and they will no longer work. Media is Verbatim Ultra so is good quality. My question is that there used to be a few programs that forced an erase of cd/rw...

    Nero 6 does not show Time (not speed) info...

    One thing I noticed about Nero 6 is that, on my system, I do not see size/time info. I do not mean realtime speed, but the info Nero 5 gave re: 556MB if burning an ISO or TIME if burning audio. Is there a place to set this? When I am burning, I have drive speed and elapsed time and not much...

    Can we tell if Verbatim 52x is Liteon?

    I see a Verbatim 52X drive being sold and wonder if you can tell from the box if it is a LiteON? I know Cendyne shows model, but also if serial is 12 digits...no letters...it is a LiteON. Does anyone know if Verbatim also shows s/n on box and if it shows if it is a LiteON? TIA

    Nero Scan SCSI Bus SLOW??

    I have 2 systems with Nero 5.5.10.15a and Liteon 52X drives. One is a PIII-500 (OC to 560) and the other is a P4-2GHZ. Both are running XP Pro. All works on both, except the FASTER system takes about 6 seconds when I open Nero and it scans the SCSI Bus. The "Slow" system, opens Nero and scans...

    LiteOn 52246S UDMA Setting?

    Hello ALL: Just a quick question. I have a new 52246S and it seems OK. I have some issues with BackupMYPC and may try BackupNOW! (which is better?), but I wonder what the UDMA setting should be in CMOS? I also have a second system and it too has a 52246S. It has an advanced tab if I click the...

    What is a Cendyne CRW-5224A??

    Hello ALL: I have a Cendyne 52x24x52 and it was a Liteon LTR 52246S...cool. I got another one from OMax (free trade for Verbatim 4812...don't ask), and it is also a Cendyne52x24x52...but it says CRW-5224A...what is it? Is it AOpen? Is it any good? I suppose for free it should be OK. I wonder...

    Cendyne 52x Lite-on Firmware question!

    I am about to buy a Cendyne Lightning V that has LTR-52246S on the box. Can I use the regular Lite-on firmware and upgrade program? Does Windows see this as the Lite-on 52246S that it is? I am asking as I see that the Memorex is also a Lite-on, but is not seen as the Lite-on in Windows. Also...

    Verbatim (BenQ) 4816P Power Cal issue???

    OK, I got one of those ..."they pay you $15" deals at Office Max. The drive actually works Ok, but about half the time, if I erase a cd-rw, I get a "power Calibration Area Full" message in Nero 5.5.10.0. My Lite-on will erase it, and the New drive can use it again and erase it again. But, if I...

    mIRC d/l manager?? (like autoget?)

    Hello ALL: I am sure you "guys" will know what I am requesting. A while ago, while using some of the DALNET MP3 groups, I saw a suggested program to get files. I believe it was so that when you are 20th, or so in the queue, it would wait, reconnect to irc if needed and download the queued...

    RedHat 8

    Well, it looks like RH 8 will be out Monday. I may try that instead of Mandrake 9. I wonder when we will get a fast server posted to get the ISO's?

    Anyone get this SP1 upgrade error??

    I did the keychange and update. Actually it all works fine. During the upgrade I got a message saying something about an error while upgrading COM+. Whatever, it continued and all was OK. I thought I would go to control Panel and see which Windows components I could remove...one of the biggest...

    Hello ALL: Anyone have a suggestion for an inexpensive, Portable player that plays MP3's on cd-rw? Nice to show tracks and if it will play a set of albums...like Super Hits of the 70's which is on 25 CD's! Some have said the players will not jump to different DIRS and that you can not play...
