Hi GrandpaBruce
I'm glad you mentioned this. I would have found it annoying a week or two from now to once again start getting the notice that I had to activate my MPEG2 codec. Now I'm mentally prepared for this event. It's interesting that the Roxio software is so sensitive to boundary conditions that it sometimes acts one way and then the other way.
Once before Roxio had let me down. I had created many (50 or 60) data discs using their "Drag to Disc" software (a big mistake - I don't do this any more). When I got the EMC9 suite its DragtoDisc program could not read any of these old DragtoDisc disks. Luckily I found the "CD Roller" program which was able to read every one of these disks - not free but worth every penny.
I think I found CD Roller via Google. I think next week I'll browse in the Roxio forum to see what it says about this issue.
Have a good weekend.

Using Drag to Disc, to burn your important data, is like playing Russian Roulette. You will eventually lose your data. Use Creator Classic, instead of Drag to Disc.
