PowerArchiver 2011 Disc to Disc Copy
-
I’m having an issue with the Disc to Disc Copy in the PowerArchiver 2011 burner. When I use the Disc to Disc Copy in PowerArchiver 2011 burner it grabs the source disc and then asks for the destination disc and says image burn complete without writing anything to the disc. The write to destination disc is not working at all and only says Image Burning Complete with nothing being written.
-
is your destination disc writable?
-
Yes, it’s a DVD+RW.
-
ok, Mili will test with RW… I think he tested Disc to Disc only few days ago and it was fine on his computer, so it might be something specific.
-
After inserting the destination disc when prompted and clicking OK, the only immediate message in the log window is image burning finished. I even tried the full disc erase option but nothing worked. I have both the DVD-ROM drive and the DVD+RW drive. The source drive is DVD-ROM and the destination drive is DVD+RW. I tried both a two-drive copy and a single-drive copy and it’s the same issue.
-
Have you found the problem with the disc to disc copy feature yet?
-
Keith, as stated in our live chat, it has been logged in and developers are aware.
Many thanks again for letting us know!
-
When is RC2 due? That should fix the Disc Copy.
-
we are working on it non stop :-)
-
please check with 12.00.38 RC2, get it via patchbeam….
thanks!

I’m getting an error when I try use disc copy from different drives. I have the source disc in the dvd-rom drive and the destination disc in the dvd-rw drive and when I try to copy from dvd-rom to dvd-rw it reads the entire source disc and prompts me for the destination disc and then when I click OK I get an error writing to the disc and then the source disc ejects from the DVD-ROM drive. The error occurs because disc copy was attempting to write to the DVD-ROM drive. Copying using the same DVD-RW drive for both source and destination works OK.

Please check with this interim release:

It did solve my problem with Disk to ISO.
Thanks.

Perhaps this should go in the wish list. But since it builds on this thread . . .
Small tweak.
I would like to be able to set a default folder for my ISO files I grab from disk.
It defaults to my documents folder.
-
would it be good to use last location?
-
basically same as PA folders setting for archives, use same setting as that?
-
A glitch . . . or I misunderstand the commands.
I wanted to create an ISO file from a different disk.
I opened Explorer, located the DVD drive, highlighted it, right clicked, choose the PA 2011 submenu, and then clicked “Compress to ISO.”
According to the task bar, It opened a window. But I could never open said window.
So I had to burn the ISO via the regular PA interface.
Then I had to force close the first window via the task manager.

I would prefer to set a specific folder. But it’s a small thing.
I have created a special ISO Files folder. It would be nice to default to it.

compress to iso is same as compress to zip, except that creates ISO files… it is not Disc to ISO tool.
So when you start it, i guess it might end up being slow since it has to read DISC first which is… slow.

I won’t do that again.
But would it be possible to have burn iso image an option in the Shell?
I thought that’s why I was adding. I now see that I had best change my shell extensions.
-
This may mean nothing.
But after the problem I mentioned earlier, PA took 25 seconds to open.
It is probably a quirk or a spin-off in my trying to burn the ISO.
I suppose, though, that it could be a feature of the interim update.

burn iso is there - right click on ISO image, and option will show up.

did it happen next time you opened PA?
-
Thanks for the clarification
PA opened slowly even after I closed and reopened it. I check TM to make sure that no other elements of PA were running when I reopened it.
BTW, I may not be able to respond again for a couple of days.

does the DVD spin up then? maybe it was left as “last used folder”.
