Hi all
I'm new in this forum.
I've read the forum to find some information about multi session with nerocmd.
I found an interesting patch for 1.04 SDK to allow multi-session burning and it works.
Now i have an other problem with multi-session CD.
I burn first session without ejecting the CD
Then while i don't eject the CD i can burn as many session as I want.
If I eject the CD and put it back in the burner i see all my files but I can't burn anything else on the CD.
Nero said that the CD is not finalized but can't burn a new session.

If someone know how i can pass this small bug reply to this post or contact me by mail

The directory is changed by a program for each session.

Some recorders need to eject and reload a disc after burning, so that they reread the contents of the disc. Eventually, your problem is related to this.

But why do want to burn multiple sessions without ejecting?
If you have all the data already available, you should better burn everything at once. So you don't loose the space needed for multisession discs.

without ejecting the burner work really fine (one on the two i've tested) it can write as many sessions as i can (limite is 99 session on CD)
But when i eject the CD or reboot the computer i can't write any session at the end on the first burner (nero find that the disk is not closed but failed to burn.)
on the second burner i've tried nero can't find sessions to import.

in all case the CD is well burned and files arn't corrupted.
