Index:

Version 1.5.6
  • Release Date: Sep 15, 2016
  • Download(s):
  • * More adjustments for cygwin 1.7 and above.

    * Ask the user what to do if a disc could not be recognized.

    * (Un-)Installer now warns if a running instance of cdrtfe is detected.
              
    * Bugfix:
      - Some BD-R(E) and BD/DL discs weren't recognized correctly.
Version 1.5.5
  • Release Date: Feb 29, 2016
  • Download(s):
  • GUI:
    • Support for dpi awareness.
    • Only use system icons in tree- and listviews.
    • Removed old and unused icons.
    • New icons for buttons.
    • Several options which could be set with the cdrtfe.ini are now available via the GUI.
    DAE:
    • Support for LibParanoia options.
    Disk image:
    • Added 'multisession' option for writing images.
    Activate DEP and ASLR.
    Bugfix:
    • Changing the language in portable mode did not save this setting to the cdrtfe.ini in the program folder of the portable version. Instead the cdrtfe.ini in the user directory was used, if it existed.
    • When no cdrtfe.ini existed, the language setting was saved to the cdrtfe_lang.ini. In most cases a user doesn't have the privileges to do this. Now a new cdrtfe.ini will be created.
    • Added the cdrtools folder to the search path, so that the code pages can be found by mkisofs.
Version 1.5.4.1
  • Release Date: Oct 11, 2015
  • Download(s):
  • Bugfix:
    • A variable was incorrectly initialized, which could prevent the start of the 'Disc image' project.
Version 1.5.4
  • Release Date: Aug 8, 2015
  • Download(s):
  • Changes:
    --------

    * GUI:
      - The drive selection now shows the drive letter for each drive.
      - Holding the Shift key during the start of cdrtfe activates the debug mode.
      - Prevent the message 'Invalid Handle' during disc verification with multiple retries. Clarify the error message.
                  
    * Audio CD:
      - New option in cdrtfe.ini for a less strict format checking of sound files (only flac): section [Audio-CD], RelaxedFormatChecking = 1.
        This makes it possible to add source files which are not in Audio CD format when using user-defined commandlines (e.g. with ffmpeg) for audio decoding.
                    
    * Bugfix:
      - Audio CD: Tracks with identical filenames from different source folders caused problems because of name collisions of temporary files during conversion into wav format.
Version 1.5.3
  • Release Date: Aug 2, 2014
  • Download(s):

    • Use bigger font size.
    • Use Vista style tree views, if possible.
  • Better support for the MinGW version of the cdrtools (beginning with cdrtools-3.01a21).
  • Automatic disc type detection:
    • This feature can be activated via cdrtfe.ini by adding the line DetectDiskType=1
      to the section [General].
    • When a disc is inserted into the selected drive, cdrtfe will detect the size and type of the disc and set the space meter of the currently active project accordingly.
    • If the current project is 'Data disc', no files have been added yet and the options 'Multisession' and 'Import previous sessions' are enabled, the contents of the disc will be imported into the project and the space meter will show the space used by the previous session.
    • Ctrl-F5 forces a new detection of the disc.
  • Automatic TOC detection for project DAE:
    • This feature can be activated via cdrtfe.ini by adding the line DAEAutoReadToc=1
      to the section [General].
    • If the current project is 'DAE' and the inserted disc is an Audio CD, the TOC will automatically be read and the track list will be displayed.
  • Commandline for decoding sound files can be changed via cdrtfe.ini or project file, section [AudioCD].
    • Add a line starting with
      CustomConvCmdMP3=
      CustomConvCmdOgg=
      CustomConvCmdFLAC=
      CustomConvCmdApe=
      and followed by the appropriate commandline. Example:
      CustomConvCmdOgg=c:\Programme\cdrtfe\tools\sound\oggdec.exe --quiet -b16 -o %T %S
    • %T and %S are placeholders for target and source filename.
Version 1.5.1
  • Release Date: Sep 1, 2013
  • Download(s):
  • GUI:
    • Changed appearance of the message dialogs.
    • Use Segoe UI or Tahoma as font if available.
    • Corrected tab order on the cdrtfe main window.
  • Use current versions of JCL, JVCL, Vampyre Imaging Library and Drag and Drop Component Suite.
  • Make cdrtfe compile with Delphi 7 again.
  • Added possibility to compile cdrtfe with the Virtual Shell Tools instead of the Delphi Shell Controls.
  • Bugfix:
    • Drive recognition failed with more than 10 SCSI host adapters.
    • Under Windows 7 PE the initialization of the task bar progress indicator failed and caused cdrtfe to crash.
    • Continuing a multisession CD with importing the previous session could make both sessions (the old and new) unusable. The mkisofs command to calculate the amount of data to be written was called with wrong parameters.
    • Registering and unregistering the ShellExtension failed on Windows x64.
Version 1.5
  • Release Date: Sep 1, 2012
  • Download(s):
  • Detect the cygwin path prefix with an external cygwin program. This should work with all cygwin versions from 1.5.x to 1.7.x.
  • Projects 'Audio CD' and 'Disc image' can now simultaneously write to multiple burners.
    1. Go to the project 'Audio CD' and add the audio tracks or go to the project 'Disc image' and select the image file (ISO, CUE/BIN image or audio CUE sheet).
    2. If cdrtfe detects at least two disc writers, you can select 'multiple writers' from the drop down list as target.
    3. Click 'Start'.
    4. Select the writers you want to use. Then cklick 'Ok'.
    5. Click 'Start'. The Tabsheets 'Device ' show the log for each writer, the Tabsheet 'Preparation' shows the log when compressed audio files need to be converted into wav format.

    Temporary files will be kept until you close this window, so you can repeat the writing process several times without creating the temporay files again.

    Currently, there is no verification for multiple discs after the writing process finished. You may, however, start the verification manually for a single drive. Right-click the 'Verify' option.

    It is recommended to run tests in simulation mode or with simulation drivers before starting a real write.

    With an Intel Pentium Dual-Core T2330 (1,6 GHZ), 2 GiB RAM and a 128 GiB SSD it was possible to write a DVD ISO image to three burners (1x IDE and 2x USB 2.0) at speed 4x simultaneously.
Version 1.5pre
  • Release Date: Jun 6, 2012
  • Detect the cygwin path prefix with an external cygwin program. This should work with all cygwin versions from 1.5.x to 1.7.x.
  • Project 'Disc image' can now simultaneously write to multiple burners. Works for images (ISO and CUE/BIN) and audio CUE sheets.
    1. Go to the project 'Disc image' and select the ISO or CUE/BIN image or the audio CUE sheet.
    2. If cdrtfe detects at least two disc writers, you can select 'multiple writers' from the drop down list as target.
    3. Click 'Start'.
    4. Select the writers you want to use. Then cklick 'Ok'.
    5. Click 'Start'. The Tabsheets 'Device ' show the log for each writer, the Tabsheet 'Preparation' shows the log when compressed audio files need to be converted into wav format.

    • When starting cdrtfe the FileExplorer wasn't opened in the specified folder.

Version 1.3.3
  • Release Date: Dec 1, 2008
  • Data-DVD: Added multiborder DVD support (cdrecord 2.01.01a50 and newer) for DVD-R and DVD-RW. A DVD-RW which has been written in multiborder mode has to blanked fully to reuse it for another writing mode.
    Important: According to the cdrecord man page multiborder DVD writing is done in the same way like writing multisession CDs. So, cdrtfe has been adjusted to allow this for DVD-R(W) discs.
    However, I haven't been able to successfully continue a multiborder DVD, cdrecord always complained about not having enough space left regardless how much data was to be written.
    I am not sure what causes this problem (cdrecord, system, drive). If you want to use this new feature, try it with a rewritable disc first.
