Title: A Burning Question
Post by: dlbarron on November 20, 2002, 12:40:58 pm

I'm burning several hundred large mp3's to data cd's.  If I select more than the capacity of the cd and click Start MJ tells me I've selected more than the capacity and asks if I want to continue anyway.  What would happen if I said Yes?  Would it fill the CD then prompt me to put in another and continue or would it just blow up?  ;D

Thanks

Assuming you survived the ensuing holocaust, your machine would fill the disk as much as possible and then error out (and maybe not in a graceful manner either). Best case: you end up with a incomplete file at the end....Worst case: locks up the RW drive.

The topic of this thread is a truly horrible pun.
Thanks!

I know and I apologize for the pun.  Believe it or not I hadn't even noticed the pun when I did the original post.

Anyway, thanks for the reply on the original question.  Does anyone know of cd burning software that will automatically span multiple cd's when you select too much to be written to one cd?

Thanks
