Nothing more to say to your lazy remarks, Mr. Lapinou!

What is the difference between BW 4.5.7 and BW 5?

The performance is the same and the difference is only that within BW 5 I can neither see happenings like actual burning speed or read errors nor I can change the settings!

Poor new Blindwrite 5! I would never buy it, because for me this only Autoplay-based and user-unfriedly version is nothing more but "automatic nonsense"!

You think i would make it for money ???? NO. I do it for fun and because I want to help also. You probably don't understand or what. Fine if you don't like tweaker tell me so and i will try to improve it. You only say "Give us options give us options" BUT how many of you have legal version of BW ???? It is easier to get crack then support team. Legal backups nah. You want to tell me you need backup all your "legal" cds because it should get sratched. I admit there are people that do it for this. But how many of you ? I think less than 10%. Maybe less maybe more i don't know. All of you "experts" do you know how many "noobs" are out there ? More than you. And for them is BW. No need to set some settings. Think about it. If you have ideas how to improve Tweaker say so, and don't ask every week for advance menu !

Sorry for english i am not native

the differences are numberous... and not visible...
nothing prevent you to use the old version ...

@Rico

I know you did it for fun, and to help people. That was not the point. The point was, that what you wrote should have been in BW5 from the start and not written from someone else for fun and to help people. I was just saying that you were doing their job (BW Team) and if One more version of BW is sold because of your Tweaker, then they are getting the money for your work. Its not my problem, just an observation.

As to if I own a legal copy of BW5, yes...I own a legal copy of blindread/blindwrite 3, Blindwritesuite 4 and Blindwrite5. I also own over 500 original games for computer, and over 200 for Amiga. I collect games, and I dont like to play my originals because of the probability of scratches. I also own over 150 LPs that also have no scratches because I only used them to make copies.

@Lapinou

Lastly, I would hope that the BW team finally gets the write speed thing fixed, so I can control the write speed. If they do that, then I will be happy to just use the tweaker for all other settings. And maybe they could make a change so that topology would be read everytime, regardless of if there is a copy protection on the Disk or not, so I wouldnt need Tweaker for non copyprotected Disks. Or do you need topology on non protected Disks? BW5 has gotten so automatic, that it does sometimes too much. Or do you suggest I use the Old version for non copy protected disks?

No, you do not need topology on unprotected disc's

You guys need to stop bickering about BW5 and the Tweaker, you need to start thinking about this from the laws point of view, not all countries have the same laws, so whats the best way to support everyone and stay with-in your countries laws. Now whatever arrangement if any between VSO and R!Co, quite frankly is none of our business, it's between them and there should be no discussion of it period especially here in an open forum. You must remember there are many different Laws to follow.
