Resuming an interrupted spanned disk burning


mercury613

Question

I've seen this question posted in this forum many times but have yet to find a definitive answer.

 

I was burning a large amount of data that was spanned over several DVDs. One of the discs failed, and my computer froze. Is there any way to resume spanning from the point where the disc failed, or do I have to re-burn the entire session, i.e. all the discs?

 

Seems to me that having to re-burn the entire session would be a pretty huge design flaw.

 

Thanks.

I'm stuck on this same issue. Burned 34 of 35 discs (20 minutes) each - THEN FAILED TO WRITE on disc 35.

Left with option of ejectiing - won't eject. Force ejection displays message total set will be unuseable.

Suspect it is because I turned off "verification" as it was taking over 1 hour per disc.

I agree with you that this is a MAJOR DESIGN FLAW. Causes days of lost labor and discs.

Their TECH SUPPORT number " 1-866-279-7694 ext 2; then 5; then 1 (for Toast 7) said their system was down and they could not even give me paid support. I ran into this before with Toast 6 and upgraded to Toast 7 to get the spanning capability. I am afraid that if I try again - using the verification that the results will be the same. LOSS of over 35 hours straignt time and 35 more discs. Can't get anyone to address the issue.
