Hello.
I, m searching for a good program to write cdroms with MorphOS.
I have tried MakeCD and Fryingpan. Fryingpan hangs my computer. Is
there anyone else?

IMHO MakeCD is still quite good for burning CDs.

@ Charvel

FryingPan 1.3.0 hangs my Pegasos2 and I have to reset but FryingPan 1.2.3 does work fine here, for writing CD's and DVD's.

Regards

Christoph

MakeCD works for me as well, but then... you don't actually say why you can't use it?

hi,

if You have any troubles with FryingPan, write to it's author, he is very helpful, and You will see, FryingPan is worth using.

And when You say, it's hangs Your computer... how? could You be more specific? FryingPan is pretty safe and stable on my Amiga and Pegasos computers... so the problem is probably in Your system...

bye, MarK.

Well it also hangs my machine, when i try to querry the device and select the burner.
Im using the symbios device.
Well, it may a device failure, didnt have time, to check it or do a bugreport.
It warns me upon selection, that symbios device is unknown and may cause trouble.

@Digiman

Exacly what happen to me. I know that my writer is 100% working so its not the error.

I just wanted to know if there is any more cd-writing programs for MorphOS. The reason I dont like MakeCD is because of the GUI.
I just hate it! :)

I will try an older version of Fryingpan. Thanks for the help!

Thing is, the issues like this one would not exist if people had time to help me work them out (meaning usually giving a few test runs of an application in one or two evenings).

anyway it's always your call. if fp doesn't work and you don't want to do anything about it - chances are it never will.

take care,
tomek.

Since you hate it so much, you can try BurnIT. It's commercial.

He can try dvdrtools (burns CDs too). It's quite old CLI program and
doesn't work with my CDRW, tho :).

Well, tell me what to do, and i will try to help u.
I just moved to a new flat, so i am limited atm.

@error
I have time, and I can give it some more tries if it helps you.

I just dont know what Im supposed to do, but if I can help out in any way I would be happy to do so..

@ Amigamancer
Maybe I should give it another chance. Maybe I didnt give it enough time.
But sure I can pay for my programs. I would be happy to do so and support the developers.

@korni
huh? and just why?

Well, that's an answer to your question :).

@korni
Cli program...old...naahh =)

Good website you have. Reading the Morphguide right now.
Very good to get all these links to programs.

@Charvel

it's usually enough if you initially write an email saying 'i have problems running this thing'. it's easy to figure the best course of action there, which often is basically one of:
1) checking you have no remains of previous installation -- people sometimes copy fryingpan's modules to their LIBS: directory, which is very bad
2) collecting ramdebug logs that helps understand where the issue is, or
3) collecting the fryingpan-generated debug data, which actually helps locate the issue within the program logic

this way i just fixed the big issue with 1.3.0 that was mentioned recently - and i think these dvds can still be recovered .

so basically -- it would be best if you could just write me an email and specify how exactly program behaves (what you do, where it crashes etc), if this is just a matter of detecting drive -- in best case this could be fixed within minutes (but i don't know anyone who has this issue and would want to help fixing it straight away - so i never heard of it).

thanks,
tomek

@dIGIMAN

first off -- send me an email and specify what exactly happens . it will be easier to create a DCP to collect right logs then.

thanks,
tomek.

Maybe try to disable button images in FryingPan. I had similar problem, but disabling the buttons was good solution.
