nero 9 vs others

[KSoD]

I felt the same way Biker. But trust me, after just trying these programs for just a week i never looked back at Nero.

My vote - ImgBurn.

I just use ImgBurn + Daemon Tools lite + AnyDVD.

Also, Nero became bloated since version 7. And it came with a bunch of stuff I never wanted (e.g. nero scout), which I had to manually remove (but I wrote a batch script to automate it)

This is the script (works on nero 7):

TASKKILL /im NMBgMonitor.exe /f
TASKKILL /im NMIndexingService.exe /f
TASKKILL /im NMIndexStoreSvr.exe /f
IF EXIST "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES(x86)%" GOTO X64
DEL "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Ahead\Lib\NMBgMonitor.exe" /q

upload the bat file will you? this is for nero 7 right?

I use the nero 7. 8 and 9 are junk? mainly for the nerovision and recode. nero express has a hidden feature which will let you edit audio too especially if you want add track from a big mixtrack file

 

[KSoD]

Nero8 was bloated, Nero 9 is worse. I tried the demo and it took a full 3 minnutes on my setup to jaut load the Burning Rom. The new animation that they have is so slow and lasts so long. It just isnt worth it.

I like Nero 7 it was decent. But sadly i can do everything with other programs that i have swayed from even installing Nero 7 anymore.

 

[EricB]

can those programs can convert video?

 

[KSoD]

ConvertXtoDVD can take a video file and put it onto DVD. Doesnt have as fancy Menu Screens as Nero but it works. I have taken almsot full seasons of things like Dora & Diego and put them on a single DVD with it for the kid.

I have used that mainly now along with some DVDFab5 and DVDShrink as they seem to get the job done for me.

 

[EricB]

I was looking for an a nice all in one program to replace nero

 

[KSoD]

Sadly i dont know of any all in ones like Nero.
