I performed a few tests on the new version. It actually copies discs now! Although, it would not do it in one step. I had to manually copy to image and then burn from image. But it did it. I also managed to get it to erase a RW disc. These are all things it would not do in previous versions, so the new version has come a long way.
Here are my results:
1) Copy from CD to CD (two different drives) - works perfectly
2) Copy from CD to image - works perfectly
3) Write image to CD - works perfectly
4) Format/erase RW disc (quick format) - works perfectly (took about 1 min)
5) Write a data CD from files on the hdd - works, but had some difficultly. The explorer view got confused the first time. But when I started a new project, it was fine.
6) Mix mode CD - Wow! I put CD cover artwork in the data portion, and the audio for the CD in the audio portion. The audio files were mp3's and InfraRecorder decoded them to wav and successfully burned my mix mode CD. Very nice! Deep Burner can't do that!
7) You mean this thing also writes DVD-video discs?? I just noticed that. Will have to test this out later.
Looks like we finally have a Deep Burner killer. Don't get me wrong, I love Deep Burner, but it doesn't copy CDs; it only writes them. THIS one does it all! InfraRecorder is almost a perfect 10.
Improvements I would like to see:
1) Ability to copy from CD to CD using the same drive without having to manually copy to image and then burn the image.
2) It should offer to format the RW disc if you are copying to it.
3) Standardization for various terminology. For instance, SAO (session at once) is more commonly known as DAO (disc at once).
4) It would be nice if clicking on the "reset" button next to the CD Recorder selection, caused an open tray to close.
