ImgBurn is free. I've tried minimise the installation to just the DLLs with the exports but have not gotten it right just yet. Something tells me the answer is no, but that's how Windows is anyway. Sopii hyvin kaikille all in one peeloille. I'm still using Nero 6. I tried Nero 7 and it sucks. Not planning to test drive Nero 8 or 9 because they are junk so full of junk programs that I will never use and waste hard drive space Nero 8 and Nero 9 both lock up my vista computer when you play an avi in showtime I emailed them about this and it is not the computer.
It is this lousy software that is the problem. I wasted my money on nero 8, then like a fool I bought nero 9, it was just as bad. These jerks ought to refund my money but they don't answer emails. Don't buy it. There is nothing FUN about creating movies with Nero 9 you dork. You obviously havne't ever done it. Nuff said. I have to agree. I have Nero 8 Ultra Edition and at first it worked well when burning data, movies and CD's, but then as soon as my computer started acting wierd and I did a cleantool delete with Nero and reinstalled it the dam thing won't do anything.
All I keep getting is Data burn failed or Burn process failed and It's getting on my nerves. Everytime this happen I end up wondering "Why did I upgrade or why didn't I just look for a better product. The last version of Nero 7 was the best. It wasn't full of bugs like 8 and 9.
Most of the features with Nero 9 I can still do with Nero 7. I am one of those customers that will stick with Nero 7 until a better release comes around or I switch software packages all together. Like Symantec they need to listen to their users complaints and then go back to basics and re-design the package from scratch. Please vote with your feet and ignore this release.
Nero 9 brings the digital world to your PC with features that make it fun and easy to create high quality multimedia projects with professional results. Create, rip, copy, burn, edit, share, and upload online.
Whatever you want music, video, photo, and data enjoy and share with family and friends anytime, anywhere. Nothing but a bloated malware installing pile of shit. Used to be a great program but the devs got greedy. Like VLC player, its time is done. Plenty of FREE alternatives that work better. And subscriptions to upgrade??! You also can choose what file associations to make or not which is essential to me. Even when you uninstall the program completely the file associations remain screwed up.
Im not impressed, I bought Nero 8 3 months ago, and the new super price to me is I think Nero 8 has still a bug. But to be fair, Nero 8 still delivers that superb burning capabilities together with its video and audio editing, movie making and a lot of stuff.
I have used nero 8 which i thought it said it was compatible with Vista and low and behold, the imagedrive option is incompatible and locked up my windows beyond deactivation and i couldn't uninstall it which i don't understand why.
The interface is too verbose. I like to choose my options. Also I found that adding the programs I like the most in Nero was very hard to do, not like in Nero 6 where you click, point and add. I wanted to use the "classic view" like windows has.
Creating an audio CD was more trouble in 8 than in version 6. Burning Rom - No workie with Vista. A screen popped up and said I couldn't use it. What is that crap at the bottom of the screen on nero 8?
Chat, news and other crap. I am going back to Nero 6. It gave me no problems. Only issue is that I can't use it with Vista. Great software but the interface is better on Nero 6 even Nero 7 has it's quirks. I've used all versions of Nero from it'a beginning, and I personally believe my Version 8.
It corrected a lot of problems I had with burning data files to cd-rw discs. I hope I've covered points previously mentioned in earlier reviews here- It's an excellent program. I will never use Nero 8. It's a big hassle with too many useless bloatware extras.
It's no fun dealing with all those installation bugs and "no audio" CD burns. The music skips like a scratched vinyl LP according to other people on the forums. It still working even under SP This particular update is a pain in the ass - I have a legitimate copy and first it says another software program has requested a reboot nothing had been updated but I rebooted anyway I got the same message again so deduced it was a Nero installation bug, then when it runs through the installation it says I have to uninstall the old version first and then install the new version - that is such a pain.
I hope there are no program bugs introduced in the program update itself if I ever manage to get it installed. Not bad for burning. I have nero 7 and have been told I can make backup copies of my dvd movies but I wasnt able to do it with nero 7 does nero 8 allow this? So I uninstalled it. I used Winmpg video conversion, the adoption of Nero burn my CDs, I kept to collect video and movie files. In my spare time, can be watched at any time, the effect was very good to watch video.
No suprise here at all. All I can say is Nero has gone downhill since Version 7 and it still seems the came with 8. Why doesn't Nero 8 have some of the major codecs bundled into it? I have never had any major problems with any versions of Nero. I had a dedicated system just for Nero so that might have been an issue for many users with different types of burning software on the same machines causing conflicts and errors.
I learned that with early releases of Roxio and Nero on the same machine seems Roxio had files that were conflicting with Nero at times, did a clean install of Nero and for the past 3 years no problems. Nero 7. In XP I've used 6. So if it ain't broke don't fix it. Personally, I can't understand why a company with such a good rep would turn out such a bad product?
To say NERO ver 7 is disappointing would be an underststement! I have had the same problems as everyone else so I'm sticking with ver 6. I had same problem. The bigger they are, the more crappy product it will churn out. Switced to Nero 7 Ultra edion and now everything I burn comes out grainy and has poor quality to it. Only switched because I could not update the 6th edition--it definaitly is crap i am going to back and reinstall Nero 6th they had it right and went and screwed everything up with the 7th crap.
I'm serious!! Hi Guy's, I totally agree with all the negative responce's, Nero 7 is the worst burning sofware on the market. I upgraded from version 6 and the computer crashed each time I tried to burn.
When I tried to uninstall I could'nt remove all the files so I could not revert to version 6. I eventually had to do a reinstall of windows to get rid of it. My advice don't go even contemplate version 7 ever, stick with 6. I thought my burner was doing bad -on the way out NERO burning rom sux buttcakes Screw NERO and the horse it rode in on I used some newbware cdburnerxppro and it worked like nero "used to"!
What's with the long-running excuse for not including manuals? The setup engine's a little warped too. Choosing "modify" means you can only remove; you have to run the original setup to add stuff. It is currently incompatible and there are currently no plans to upgrade it.
This is not posted on their site though, one has to fight through their tech support to find this out. Absolute bloatware. Even if you do the "custom" installation to avoid the extraneous stuff you can't avoid it putting stuff like a search engine "Nero Scout" that's just a nuisance.
Installation insists on removing any old versions so you're stuck with all this junk. And getting a refund? Impossible- even if you conform to all the refund requirements their automated response system just keeps referring you to their rules and technical help sites. When I first tried Nero 7 I thought Ahead must be under new management as they had released a piece of software with rampant bugs and that was more style than substance.
Nero 6. Since having the latest version v7. It needs to loose some weight MB is a bit big but other than that a average piece of burning software for all the simple jobs. I've stabilized with these. I find depending on the discs I'd rather be safer.
If u burn alot, its not really worth searching for upgrades for anydvd since its so cheap. Why waste the disc I was a Nero fan I too have had my share of problems with it, however, that was when 7 first came out. Too many options can be overwhelming.
DVD Crypter was my favorite until Bought Nero 7 Ultra on CD's and what a disaster. Nothing worked. Could not go backwards to previous versions either. Although I have happily used many different earlier versions of Nero, I can't say anything positive about the V7.
In their defense I did manage to download a huge MB update V7. Those of you with major problems should consider doing the same, but my point is I should not have had to completely download a whole new version.
Nero AG you need to listen to your customers and fix your software problems, more importantly don't mass produce garbage software and 'stick it' to your customers. Try reading your users comments. Nero serves up more coasters then a bartender, I went with ImgBurn, no coaster in 3 months so far! I used to use nero until it played havoc with my pc.. Message I received. Shellbase Manager is missing or corrupt. I had to continue to go to run and do an regedit several times before it completely unsinstalled.
Then downloaded it again and repated the same steps until i got fed up with Nero. I am tyring to burn my downloaded movies onto dvd.. Im a newbie at this and Original insallatiion Of Nero I had no problems until recently.. I want to save them so as not to use up all my download as I an going to re-install xp..
I since downloaded a few other programmes but so difficult to use. I did how ever found Nero to be easy to use.. Any help on another free programme? Nero WAS the best burning software. After four hours they could not solve my problem. Installed Nero from website and entered my serial number.
Thus Nero freezes the computer if any edit is attempted. Program can only be closed with Task Manager. Nero's solution, sorry they have read everything on the web and have never heard of this problem. Neither has the Geek Squad, nor can they fix the problem.
Nero was at one time, the best. With this release and their business practices it is now "buyer beware". When you purchase the program online, the program seems to embed the serial number and install. If you back up the program and then have to reinstall it later the serial number is gone. Nero wont give you any support whatsoever. I had to reinstall after a crash just three weeks after purchasing this program.
Nero's response when I asked them what happened to my serial number? Nero "used to be" great now it just sucks. I get coasters out of nearly every disc I try to burn with nero- screw nero I don't know what the problem is- but I havent time to be fooling with what doesn't work. New nero show sucks too- it hangs more than it plays vids.
Using Nero 7 with Vista, having a issue trying to receive the current upgrades, in receipt of " Download Connection Problem " error. I am considering asking for a refund. I have been evaluating Nero for the past month and I have decided to switch to ImgBurn. I had so many problems from "illegal disc error" to "calibration error" that I have completely given up on this software.
I suggest everyone give ImgBurn a try. I have a new Vista system, and have used Nero appropriately in the past and been satisfied. I design software packages for OEM customers, and have often recommended it.
I have requested a refund fortunately used Pay Pal. The original Nero 7 Essentials will not allow the audio portion of the movies to be heard, but this version allows the unit to operate at normal parameters. I did not however, test the speeds of copying or burning DVD's. This site was recommended to LiteOn, by me, as a link from their FAQ page as a repair for future problems with their units.
I went back to Nero v because it was the only version that would work seamlessly with DVD Shrink. Nero was great, until the installer started reaching MB. I still like and prefer using Nero for burning discs, but I'm now using the Micro version - only Before you go and say "it's perfect in every which way and if you have a problem, sucks for you cuz i never had a problem" think about it for a sec. There are and will be glitches.
I bet Nero is working on working on compatibility with it, but for now, it's not working with it. I have been having one problem after the other with Nero 7. I am not new to Nero, I have been using it for several years now. It often fails to exit from memory properly for no reason.
Nero Vision fails to save your default settings. There is a bad bussing sound in the audio when adding a transition between video clips in Nero Vision. And the list goes on I thought that Nero 7. I had to back off on it to Nero 7. But, when you report these problems to Nero technical support they act like they are not problems at all.
They act like it is something that you the user is doing wrong, even though you explain to them that you are not new to Nero and you know how it should be working!
And when you finally get them to admit that there is a problem they have no idea how to fix it, when it will be fixed, if it will ever be fixed. They seem to offer almost no support in resolving your problems what so ever. I have had to resort to using third party free software to create DVD's because I can not get these issues resolved through Nero.
This is wrong and I should NOT have to be doing this! I paid for my Nero and I should be getting answers to questions. I should be getting help resolving my problems. And I feel like Nero seems to think that I am. These problems have not been going on for days, weeks, months, but over a year now!!!!! You had better be a technical guru. But, there in lays the problem, Nero is designed for the None-Technical person.
This new version of Nero is horrible. I have big problems with it. Transcoding alone takes 4. I am using Vista Ultimate.
Highly disappointed with this product. Nero is the flagship media editing suite available in the market today, period. Their product is by far the best media management suite you can buy. Ive used it for years and any problems i have had have always been attributed to the hardware, not the software.
The fact that you can update for free and that Nero constantly improves their product mean that the product stays current and as glitch free as possible. Nero is excellent burning software. All other burning softwares are not as good as Nero and I have not had one problem with them and this version.
I have been using Nero for years and never had one problem with it, none of the errors you people are reporting. Guess I just got a hardware config it likes. In fact I never have no problems, ever. I forgot to point out, even though I unchecked everything, ever since I installed this virus, ohh sorry I mean software, I have had to reinstall Windows media player three times.
WMP is removed from my quickstart, and nero is there. I bought the software because the box said that I could creat slide shows, but when I tried to use it I get a message that I have to buy another version to use more than 30 slides. OK So I am out 90 bucks. But this crap is not done with me yet NERO isn't even open! You will need it. Nero used to be essential, but now it's just bloatware.
If I have to use it, I'd be downloading the Lite or Micro versions without all the useless stuff. If you need to do something that NERO don't offer search for an alternative software. I have been a computer geek for more than 20 years, with vast knowledge of almost all aspects of computing, dont let Nero agents kid you into believing that Nero's problems are somehow hardware related or something else not to do with Nero I have been trying to get Nero vision to work for several weeks now, on various types of PC's I have advocated Nero for many years but have removed new versions and returned to 6.
They have reached beyond their grasp and what was reliable burning software has now been loaded with so much junk that it is no longer usable for it's primary task, burning CD's and DVD's. I now use shampoo ver. Agree - Nero used to be great Ver6 and prior but they have added so much junk that it sucks now. I say this as I uninstall the latest install of Ver 7 which keeps crashing on install and read elsewhere that the new version has issues which is something you think they could have working correctly.
Nero Burning Rom is excellent, I use it a lot and after vigorously testing others always come back to Nero. If your having problems with it I'd say slow down Oppy and read the instructions because ya got user errors, and don;t take offense to that just retry, it works great! I take it you work for nero!! You only have to look on all the nero forums , official and unofficial , to see the large number of people who have problems with nero.
The advice given , by some outlets , to purchasers of PCs with nero pre-installed is to un-install. The main trouble with nero is that it try's to do everything and ends up a mish-mash of programs. This is the best burning software on the market. Who ever says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about or has installed it incorrectly or doesn't even know how to use it!
Remember you shouldn't have 2 burning roms on your PC or you risk conflict. The last version of nero that i tried was 7. Out of curiosity i tried 7. Why people use nero , when there is a wealth of good software out there , is beyond me.
Installed and worked fine for a few days. Then it killed my ability to access my sound card and kept giving me errors on my SP2. I have a new Sony vaio and it got to the point that the only way I could use the computer was to uninstall the program. Still has a few bugs in it. But, it worked well for about a week and a half. Although creating dvds from recorded mpegs is a bit easier with Roxio.
Nero 7 Premier's Nero burning rom program never installed correctly although the rest of the suite worked. After a while, sometimes a very short while, Nero 7 files corrupted on this Wins2K machine. Just my experiences! I have Nero 7. Thank you in advance. Can someone tell me the seettings im suppose to burn the iso on or what media the xbox can play?
Since installing Nero 7 - latest version - it has been extremely problematic and unpredictable. I've managed to create 5 dvd's when I first installed - but since then - I have had no success in any Nero Vision burns I write to disk first. I have since given up on Nero 7 and gone back to earlier version 6. There's something wrong with the "filesize" on the info box As far as the software goes, I've always used it and it works great.
No problems here. This is the best copying software on the market at the moment. Roxio is no where near the standard of this so if ya gonna get cd or dvd copying software get nero. I cannot understand how Nero have made such a mess up of their software from 6. I must admit that this 7. Also it should be noted that this release should be compatible with Windows Vista. I have Vista installed and have not encountered any problems with it as it seems to be compatble.
That's all for now folks! If this mornings review didn't post, here's what happened. Nero 7 Recode does work. Just not on the one dvd. Beats anything else I've tried. Roxio, Sonic, Dvd x copy-dead now.
Only used Dvd Shrink 3 times, and not recently. Word of advice-don't spend a lot on burning software. Sure, it works now, what about next month? Yesterday Nero 7 Recode gave me a rough time trying to burns dvd movies.
As stated, it would not allow usage due to errors and reinstalls of the program and C partition did nothing. Scouted the Net last night and found few leads on Ebay, Amazon, and retailers.
That's for retail Nero 7. Not 7. Why would I want to go back and purchase another? Roxio 8 and Sonic 7 which are also on my computers force you to use templates and other methods to burn dvds instead of burning directly. DVD X copy is dead. Also wasn't flexible.
Anyway, tried burning 2 other dvds this morning and Recode works fine! It's just the one dvd. Computing drives me nuts.
Anyone know how to network and secure connections? Like someone else mentioned, do a custom install, not everything is needed.
Recode takes anywhere from minutes to encode a dvd file for burning. My Recode quit today. Error-it needs to close. Will uninstall and reinstall Nero Nero 7 is by far the most complete and best value for the buck. Nero Burning Rom and Nero Express are and have been that standard of excellence fo compare all other products of their kind. They also have improved and tightened Nero recode II and Nero Vision that they are now the top for equivelent video products.
All of these keep being upgraded, debugged and passed on free to all Nero 7 Ultra Edition users. Even the latest upgrade to Nero 7 Ultra Edition Enhanced is a free upgrade to verson 7 users. No one come close to packing all of their useful software, which continually improves and adds functionality. With Nero, it is always true that they are commited to continuous improvement.
The never products of their incredibly large suite keep being enhanced and becoming more and more stable and useful.
Working with Multimedia keeps requiring more expertise. Unfortunately there are many that don't understand the fact that "they don't understand" and fly off the handle with posting complaints before they don't have the expertise, experience and patience to properly diagose problems.
It is amnazing that someone complains that Nero has grown with the industry and offers so much functionality in their suite that it bothers them. To complain publically really makes one look so foolish. It is NOT too complex for anyone. Just don't use what you don't want to use. When I need some come complexity, I then will go to Nero Rom, which can do everything that anyone can dream of. Nero Recod II, someone can bring in a file, make a couple of clicks and off it goes.
No complexity unless one needs it or wants it. Backitup, use the Wizards if you want. It is the user's choice on complexity. The most amazing comment is bluemoon. I would bet my house that bluemoon's problem is NOT because of Nero, but ignorance, media, PC issues, hardware issues. Probably is he reboots he will be fine. OR, don't use that cheap media that has a retail stores name on it.
Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim not the chinese made Verbatim , and media issues will go away. I've always loved NERO, until i came across v7. It does give a lot more features than v6 , and increased smooth previewing in the new Nero vision 4, but the DVD - encoding is nearly pathetic.
If users were happy with nero 6 and vision 3, stick to that, let NERO fix the tremendous amount of bugs in this version. This is the log file generated after the burn fails: Windows XP 5. I have e-mailed Ahead about the problem but I'm not sure if this is system specific or a flaw in version 6.
If anyone is able to validate this error with their system I'm sure it would help expedite a fix from Ahead. Thank you. Re: Nero burning ROM v6. It's reported by several users. Go back to 6. This is the reply I received from them after reporting the problem. Dear valued Xx Xxxxxxx, thank you for your email and your interest in our software. Nero is able to copy DVDs which are not copy protected and which are 4. To find step by step directions on how to copy a DVD, and more, just use the below link.
