Hi Im fairly new to this game and wonder if anyone can help.When I use copy to copy on Nero and im copying a backup disc which is booktyped dvd-rom how come the copy comes out booktypes dvd+r and not dvd-rom.Is there a way around this ? Many thanks
Booktyping is only possible with some writers. If yours is not capable of doing this, it just can't do it. If your writer is capable of booktyping it can be told to do so automatically with every disc you burn.
@sturon What's the make and model of your drive? Like Jigen said if your drive can booktype you need to set this option in Nero on +r/rw & +r dl discs only. Otherwise the format stay the same.
Hi Its a Sony dvd rw dw q30a which ive been booktyping using the Lite-on in dvd decrypter.Where do I find this setting change in Nero ? Many thanks
@sturon ((Here's how to Book Type using Nero Burning Rom)) 1) open up Nero StartSmart, then click on Nero Burning Rom 2) EXIT out the "New Compilation" when it pops up 3) click on "Chooses A Recorder" (it's a small burner icon next to (I) and the arrow down) 4) click on “Options," then on "Book Type Settings," set to "Automatic" and click "OK" - that's it Now every time when you burn using a DVD+R, DVD+RW or DVD+R DL disc, Nero will “automatically” change the Book Type into a DVD-ROM format.
Hi John Thanks for that . I tried it but when I got to options it didnt have a booktyping one.I am using version 6SE which is an OEM one i believe.Perhaps i need to upgrade to the full version ?
@sturon For some reason Nero does not display the booktype option where johnl123 showed on Liteon drives (your sony's oem) If you have nero toolkit go to Nero CD-DVD Speed>extra>bitsetting. The option should be there. But after every restart you will need to set it again. If you don't have Nero Toolkit - update to this version: http://httpdl2.usw.nero.com/Nero-6.6.0.18.exe Or you can use the LiteOn booktype utility: http://www.liteonamericas.com/us/download_utility.htm
