Is there any way to change some of the default settings in Nero Express? Specifically, I'd like it to start up with "Normalize all audio files" UNCHECKED and "No pause between tracks" CHECKED -- these two items come up the opposite way by default each time I start the program. I can't seem to find anything in the menus that will effect the default value for these settings.

Also, the "Remove silence at the end of cda tracks" will automatically check itself if I go "back" to the previous menu and then hit "next" again. This means it has to be checked every time to make sure it stays unchecked. Is this a bug? Is there a way to keep this setting "off"?

Thanks,

Larry

i am am having trouble too with nero express when i add music in and goto the propeties of the music file and change eg make the bass more higher on the equalizer and press ok, but when i go back to the propeties the settings it go's back to default
i am running nero express 5.5.9.9 bundled

jedimc,

Although I don't have an answer, I think you ask a good question. Perhaps, this is a limited functionality of Nero Express? An incentive to purchase a serial number for activating Burning Rom? I'm not really sure.

The ability to edit silence and control pause length for audio compilations can be done with a freeware program called burnatonce.

Check it out at www.burnatonce.com
Just be sure to read the FAQs and the section on proper installation before posting questions in the forum as the answer may already be found there. Otherwise, feel free to ask for help should you need it.

i did check the the help file that was with nero and it didnt say much about,
I'm not really worried about it now anyway,thanks anyway

jedimc, I think you misunderstood. I was just saying that if you download and install burnatonce, be sure to check out the FAQs for burnatonce, not for Nero (though it is good to know that you took this step with Nero in an attempt to solve your problem -- a lot of people do not take time to do this).

i will have a look

I already did purchase the serial number -- I got a free version of Nero with a drive, but I wanted to install it on another system so I bought a new number. That said, I wasn't aware that Nero Express was a free program -- are you sure it actually is?

The reason I'm using Express is not because I have to, but because I want to -- I like the easier interface better than the "regular" Nero. I just don't like the fact that I can't get some of the settings to default to the state I like to use.

If it came with your burner then it is free is called bundled software

I got nero express with my LG 8520B and i love it becuase of it is easy and fastness to use.

i think these are very good questions for Ahead's tech support.
why don't you try them, and keep us informed of the reply.

I wrote Ahead -- I'll post back when I hear a reply.

Here is the response I got back from Ahead today:

"This is not a bug, and at this time there is no way to set these
features. I will forward your Email to our Engineers to request this
feature for a future release of Nero."

Larry

too bad

thanks for keeping us posted.

Although I have both Nero (full) and Nero Express, I use neither to burn mixes or compilation CD-Audios. I use MusicMatch Jukebox to do that, it's a free D/L at http://www.musicmatch.com/. However, I paid $20 for the "Plus" version which includes normalization or volume leveling. I mention this because once I turned the option on, it remained on.

OTH, maybe the option retention has nothing to do with MMJB. Perhaps it is the result of another cause. Have tried burning C&W music, with the emphasis on "W"?
