http://cdburnerxp.se News about the free CD/DVD-burning program CDBurnerXP http://forum.cdburnerxp.se/index.php?/topic/9146-cdburnerxp-45-final 2012-12-10 StarBurn Software) I have been able to release the new version 4.5 final of CDBurnerXP yesterday. In this release the underlying burning engine has been replaced by a new and more stable one. This especially affects the device detection, there should no longer be any situations where CDBurnerXP does not recognise your device.

There are still a couple of issues left that will be fixed as soon as possible:

• Some discs created with CDBurnerXP 4.4 cannot be continued (imported) by CDBurnerXP 4.5. This cannot be fixed unfortunately. If you have any open discs, use 4.4 until finished.
• Setting a custom date/time for files and folders is not yet possible.
• "Publisher" and "application" information are not burned to discs with UDF file system
• When importing older sessions, the file size of the imported files is not shown in the file list.
• Verification does not currently provide a list of failed files (if any)

There are still a couple of issues left that will be fixed as soon as possible, but should not delay the release of 4.5:

• When burning data discs, the selected write speed may be ignored (uses maximum speed then)
• Setting a custom date/time for files and folders is not yet possible.
• "Publisher" and "application" information are not burned to discs with UDF file system
• When importing older sessions, the file size of the imported files is not shown in the file list.
• Verification does not currently provide a list of failed files (if any)

On a different note the next version of CDBurnerXP will add support for the newly developed Opus audio codec. A new 4.5 beta will also be released this week if all goes well.

Currently users whose ISP do peering via GlobalCrossing/EuroRings will suffer extremely slow response times accessing our services, there is nothing, zero, nada we (or our ISP for the matter) can do about it, latency is currently awful..I guess some network admins over the internet may be enyoing a few drinks, so will I , not without first wishing you a happy new year !!]]> http://forum.cdburnerxp.se/index.php?/topic/8464-cdburnerxp-update-4392762 2011-11-01
- Updated DVD-Video burning capability: Simplifies burning video DVDs a little and in particular shows this functionality in the startup screen.



- New MSI installer (based on WiX) with better deployment capabilities.
Important here: Remove any previous version of CDBurnerXP before using the new MSI installer.

Unfortunately, I still could not include the latest StarBurn burning library for some additional bugfixes, since there is still an issue with audio burning that needs to be resolved.]]> http://forum.cdburnerxp.se/index.php?/topic/8388-cdburnerxp-beta-439-beta-2 2011-09-10

I'd appreciate if some people could try to use it and spot any potential new issues. Last release with an updated burning library did not go too well without tests. Thanks

This release should in particular solve the issues
- CStarBurn_ScsiTransportSPTI::ExecuteCDB(): Command failed
- WIN32 error: CStarBurn_StarWaveFile::RealRead() (when burning short audio files)

Also new in beta 2:
- New DVD-Video burning interface, also exposed in startup dialog.
- Fixed error when shutting down after burning (MarshalDirectiveException)]]> http://forum.cdburnerxp.se/index.php?/topic/8264-scheduled-downtime-0100-0800-cest 2011-05-31 http://forum.cdburnerxp.se/index.php?/topic/8151-opencandy-update-latest-versions-cleared-by-mse 2011-03-04 pretty extensive article on what happened. I'd recommend you to read it, I couldn't add much information to it.

tl;dr: Recent versions of OpenCandy are no longer detected as adware, their software recommendation component is now even less intrusive. There has not been a threat to your privacy or security.]]> http://forum.cdburnerxp.se/index.php?/topic/8130-adware-alert-in-microsoft-security-essentials 2011-02-24
I am aware of the fact that CDBurnerXP setup files are currently flagged as adware by Microsoft Security Essentials, more specifically it alerts about "Adware:Win32/OpenCandy".
This issue is being worked on. Actually, it is an error of Microsoft Security Essentials, and OpenCandy is working together with Microsoft in order to fix the problem. Still, CDBurnerXP nor OpenCandy will install any malicious software on your computer, nor will it install anything without your consent. If you'd like to avoid the OpenCandy setup file anyway for now, you can download the portable version from the website or preferably wait a while until the OpenCandy free installers are (as always) also available on the download page.
Sorry for the worries this isue might have caused.

Update: Microsoft has explained what exactly they don't like of OpenCandy, and a new version which complies to the requirements of Microsoft Security Essentials will be released soon.

Best regards,
Florian]]>
