| Anyone know a good program that I can use to burn data/music CDs? My cd burner is old so I need one that runs at 1x speed and I can't find one that can burn that slow  |

| You could try out DeepBurner, freeware. It is one of the best freeware CD/DVD burning software available - or you just get Nero as Trapster mentioned about it. | |||

Deepburner burns at 2x speed on the lowest as does all the versions of Nero I came across  |

| That is really odd. My version of Nero has 1x selectable. If none of these programs allow you to choose 1x, the only thing I could think of is that your CD burner is for some reason not reporting that it can burn at that speed. I don't really know how any of that works, so I could be completely wrong. Maybe you could find some updated or customizable third-party drivers or something? Again, I'm talking out of my ass here. | |||

| I'm assuming that you're on Windows, so download the Win32 port of cdrtools. You tell it to burn at 1x by specifying speed=1 as a parametre. I'm not going to tell how to use it right now, so read a HOWTO about it. (Note: Ignore the fact that it talks about Linux. The same cdrtools are used that you downloaded, only that I host a port for Windows) |

| ...uh, that documentation is pretty easy to understand. Then, I have plowed through alot of Linux documentation myself. And besides i'm used to the concept of mounting... which is not needed in Windows as Windows does it automatically as soon it needs a certain disk. Heh, if I had the time. I could try to simplefy that guide. And for Windows too, it's not like the documentation is bad. But sometimes they mention too many things at once, instead of making a quick "burn your first CD" guide. Not explaining everything in detail... (edited by Kitten Yiffer on 01-28-05 04:40 AM) |

| The only thing stopping people from switching to Linux is the fact that Linux is written for geeks by geeks. Things are improving for the average user, but telling average joe computer user to "run a command like this mkisofs -r -o cd_image private_collection/" in the terminal" to make a CD is not the way to mass-adaption. (Perhaps a CD is a bad example, as there are graphical CD burning programs on Linux) | |||

Originally posted by Tarale GUI programming is such a pain (with or without visual tools) since what you think is effective really isn't effective at all. Also, there are so many variables you have to deal with that most people overlook and don't program. Thus when a crash happens, the average user has no idea what to do. I'm curious, what open source projects have good user interfaces (that are friendly)? |

| Well, there's X-CD-Roast, but I don't know any Win32 ports that exist. Plus, compiling for Win32 is a bitch. It's just ugh while doing it in *nix is easier than automatic installers. |
