It copied about 6 tracks to the hard drive directory (from which I was able to play the songs through x-cdroast) but I ended up aborting the actual writing, due to having the machine tied up.
Are you saying that it actually got to the writing stage?
No it only copied 6 tracks to the hd. I *does* write data though.. nicely I may add
The interesting thing is that I burns data fine, very acceptable speed.
I dont think my cds are scratched alothough I may try another experiment using a different cd.
My CD didn't look scratched either.
Ok Ill check another cd
what burning tool are you using? (the command line tool) Id try and give that a shot although I would thing the x-cdroast should be able to burn music acceptably.
cdparanoia and cdrecord
Try this cdparanoia command and see if it gets stuck on one of the tracks: cdparanoia -vB
Ok will do (hope I have it installed (yet another configuration... challange) Ill check it tonight rob
