CD-R / CD-RW Lead-in / Lead-out Space Required

[jimshu1]

Is the lead-in/leadout space the same between CD-R and CD-RW media? What about between finalizing the disk and multi-session? What amount should you adjust for?

I have always allowed 15Mb for both types of media. This doesn't seem to be enough for the new Nero v6.0.0.15.

Thanks for any replies!

With the latest versions of Nero (5.5.10.50 and 6.0.0.15), this is a bug. The only workaround at this time is to go back to the previous version (5.5.10.42 or 6.0.0.11).

You should be able to burn a full 700 MB of data to an 80-min CD-R or CD-RW disc.

Can you still burn 700Mb to a 80 min. CD-R even if it is a multi-session burn? Thanks.

No, when you have to burn the Lead-In and Lead-Out multiple time, each time takes more space. I was talking about a single-session DAO burn (which is how I burn nearly all CD's other than packet-written CD-RW discs).

In any case, I think the bug in Nero still applies.

Thanks again.

You're welcome. I hope I was able to help.
