sknis,
Has informed me of this option in EMC8!
EMC 8 allows for a small amount of overburn on a disc. From the home page, go to Options (lower right) and then select General then Advanced and select sectors. the amount of overburn is only in terms of seconds, not minutes.

A standard CD-R is capable of recording 80 min of audio or 700MB of data, until recently a new 90-99 min format has been developed utilizing "Overburn"; however because Overburn feature is not standardized feature offered on all CDDVD-RW burners in the market, not all CDDVD Burners can recognize the extra storage space present on the disc. To be able to used the extra 10-20 min of extra recording space, you need to have a supporting hardware and software and the correct software setting.


Most CD/DVD Burning software has limited the recording size to protect the burner that does not support 90 minutes burning. Therefore, most software disabled the "Overburning" feature by default. To enable this feature, go into the software preferences / setting or configuration and find the "Overburning" setting and set the maximum to 90 Minutes

The most popular recording software that allows Overburning are: Nero, WinOnCD, CDRWin, Feurio,  Discjuggler, Discsafe, Simdisc.

Here is a list of burners that have been tested on overburn.
