I upgraded to version 8 and now can no longer find the feature that lets me utilize BOTH dvd burners in my system to burn dubs at the same time. I find faint reference to it in the help but can't get to the screens it describes.

I have an image on my hard drive, taken from my camcorder, and I want to burn 100-plus copies of it two at a time. So far I have to do it one at a time. What am I missing please? Thank you.

  Use Disc Copier
  Choose the ISO image for source
  Insert a blank into all drives. It really should be the same speed and preferable the same brand in all drives.
  Click on the little down arrow beside COPY NOW and choose ADVANCED COPY
In the next dialog box, check all drives.  This works even with more than two drives. They all have to burn at the same speed. If you have a slower drive, that is the speed that they all will burn.

Thank you. I was using the wrong (simple) interface. As I mentioned, I was able to do this regularly with the previous version because I knew where the selection tool was located.

Yes, 100 plus copies. I work with a comic trying to find more national club work, is that OK with you?

Ah... The HOME application is based on different technology.  Disc Copier should get the job done for you.
