Nero 9 is out

ticktock · 29 Sep 2008 at 21:03

Nero7 is the one i use. Don't see the point in upgrading. Does all i need it to do.

I've got Nero 7 too going to stay with that I think

Vision express and recode are great pieces of software!
Coded by the very clever dude that bought you DVDShrink!
As far as the burning side of the software goes I don't bother with it as I find CloneCD and Prassi's ONES to be far better imho.

whats so bad about it? i use nero 8 for burning music and image iso files, never had a problem? i used to have 6 and can't see the point in 8 but i didn't pay for it so meh..

I use nothing but ImgBurn these days, fantastic bit of software

still on nero ultra 7.7.5.1 if it aint broke...

I dont intend to hijack the thread but the current Nero is only a shadow of its former self now.

It has become a bloated pile of junk.

I now use:

Ashampoo Burning Studio - Reminds me of Nero 6 and is VERY stable from experience.
Imgburn

yes Nero is bloated as hell, but you dont have to install everything. I still use it because I actual like the software. although when installing I do have spend half an hour unchecking all of the bloated extras other than the basic burning engine.

I used to use Nero Recode to convert Xvid into DVD.
What alternatives are there for this? I am using Nero 7 at the moment.

+1

It does the job using less than 2mb not the 1.3gig of a full install of nero8 or the 350+mb trimed down to the bone install.

Looks good, I'll check it out.

Thanks

The only reason I upgrade nero is when I get a new burner and the older version doesn't have support for it.

Ashampoo Burning Studio > NERO.

Fact.

It is true, it really is an excellent bit of software. Most Ashampoo stuff is good, despite the very stupid name.

and i ask to you..

what's in that that imgburn doesn't have?

Hxc · 10 Oct 2008 at 12:34

Last version I used was 5.5, which was pretty damn good!

Very rarely burn anything these days, so it's imgburn that gets the most use.
