I have looked and can not find if Media Creator 9 includes lightscribe software. I have just purchased a new computer and it came with Sonic, which does have the lightscribe feature, but I prefer the creator series. My edition is getting old though at version 7. So, can anyone tell me if Lightscribe is in the new version?

Don't have a Lightscribe enable burner and as far as I know no version of EMC includes Lightscribe software.

It would be very nice if it does, Lightscribe is good (so far) especially if you burn a ton of discs like I do with my kids.

Lightscibe software is not software on it's own, what it is, in the label maker section of ECD, there is a pull down menu for disc print selection. (kinda of like what kid of label would you like to print.) As far as I know, lightscribe just needs to be enabled there.


I just ordered it through Amazon.ca, saved $15.00 and free shipping....awsome stuff.....and ROXIO does hold the lightscribe licence to anyone who wonders.

Yes, EMC 9 will burn the label to a LightScribe disc, if you have a LightScribe drive.

I totally misunderstood the question (or read between the lines) and was thinking he meant that EMC can make a drive Lightscribe capable. DUH!

Ok Bruce I have just one question.When I got my new drive I took it that the lightscribe software was on the only disc I got (Nero).Not wanting to install it I went to the Lightscribe site and downloaded the System Software and installed that.Did I not have to do that as Roxio has it built in?

I think Roxio SUPPORTS lightscribe, but the driver is not included on the EMC 9 CDs. So yes, ,I would think the driver would have to be preinstalled either by the PC manufacturer or the user.

Found the following in the Roxio Knowledgebase. It says it applies to EMC8, probably applies to EMC9 too. I don't have a lightscribe burner, but it looks like you have to install the driver that should've come with the drive. If you can't find it you can probably download it directly from the drive manufacturer or use the generic driver from the Lightscribe people.

Roxio Knowledgebase ID Number: 000007CR

Issue
Label Creator does not recognize that you have a LightScribe drive installed when attempting to print a Label Creator project.

Resolution
In order for applications to print to a LightScribe drive you must have the LightScribe driver installed. This driver is normally installed as a part of the software that was shipped with your LightScribe drive. This means that if Label Creator does not recognize your LightScribe drive you will need to install the software that was shipped with the drive. Until that has been done LightScribe enabled applications will not recognize that you have a LightScribe drive installed.

Gary & Lance got it right Terry. It's the "driver" that's needed, which is what the System Software is on lightscribe's site. That's what I used also to install the driver when I got mine. The one on the included Nero disc is buried in the Nero install.

Also, as I recall, EMC 8 and 7 or 7.5 also supported burning to Light Scribe burners.

Gary is correct. It supports LightScribe, so you can print your labels with EMC 9.

For the other people, gentlemen!

1. You must have a LightScribe-enabled DVD Writer.

2. Label-making Software that supports LightScribe.

3. The third and most important, is the LightScribe System Drivers. This is what most forget is needed and fail to install. You must have the LightScribe API Control Software properly installed in order to take advantage of this feature and have any of the software applications recognize the media.

The Technical support links will direct you to the general support web site of each of the manufacturers.

Your LightScribe product manufacturer will have the best knowledge of your specific configuration and needs, and they should be contacted first for updates whenever possible.

Also, for those wondering if the new "Ver. 1.2" discs are indeed faster, I will definitely cover this in the article and compare the difference in burn times over first gen media.

EMC9 does have lightscribe included in the software suite, but it doesn't work very well. It will leave a large line in the middle of the applied picture.
Also, when I burn the lightscribe side of it, it will not let me add data to the other side. If I burn the data first, it will not let me burn the lightscribe side of it.
Not impressed so far.

Are you able to burn a label using the lightscribe label software, or the label software that came with the burner?

EMC 9 supports burning (printing) to a LightScribe enabled drive. You still have to have the LightScribe driver software installed.which came with your burner. You should check for updates to it from your burner manuf. website, or from the light scribe site. You should also chec for firmware upgrades to your drive at the drive manuf. site. the symptoms you describe are more likely related to a drive problem rather than a software problem.

Sounds more like you have a system problem. Lightscribe works perfectly fine on my machine with the HP 840b DVD burner. get the latest Lightscribe engine. (1.4.11.9.1)

You might want to get the Extended Contract Utility also. It gives you a choice of making the images darker, but takes longer to burn. This extension also works with EMC 9 Label Creator.
