CDCOPY.EXE V4.800 (C) by Markus Barth ===================================== This module allows you to write audio-tracks from CD to disk. Registered users are able to write these files to a CD-Writer. Running under Windows-95/98 the program only works with SCSI or ATAPI-CDROM/CD-R, which support this special mode. Using WINDOWS-NT it is possible to use the generic WIN32 interface to read the CDDA-tracks. By default, the module starts detecting an ASPI-interface. If it is not available the generic interface is used. The following hardware was tested: Speed Adaptec 2940, Plextor CD-ROM 8XCS, 8X RICOH 14020C, 2X TOSHIBA 3401 1X TOSHIBA 6002B 1X TOSHIBA 6201 12X PIONEER DR-U24X 4X UltraPlex 25X UltraPlex 40 max 30X Sony CDU711 10X Philips CDRW3610 7X CyberDrive 8X Yamaha CDRW 4260 7X Yamaha CDRW 4416 11X TEAC CDR55S 13X Philips PCS403CD 11X Liteon LTN382 10X Toshiba SD-W1101 1X Sony CRX 100E 10X These are not all supported drives, but those I test with! It's fully functional under Windows-95/98 and Windows-NT 3.51/4.x. For both operating systems I used EZ-SCSI 4.00, 4.01 as ASPI-interfaces. The following versions were tested: WNASPI32.DLL 22528 -> EZ-SCSI 4.01 WNASPI32.DLL 21504 -> EZ-SCSI 4.00 WNASPI32.DLL 48128 -> EZ-SCSI 4.57 Attention - please copy the CDCOPY.INI file to the Windows / Winnt directory! Information about the configuration and usage of the module is located in the attached helpfile (CDCOPY.HLP) Troubleshooting. The multilanguage supprt covers at the moment only menues and tooltips, helpfiles etc. are following Supported languages: English German Norwegian Spanish Swedish Italian Netherlands Slovenian Slovakian Bulgarian Portuguese Hungarian French A german and hungarian helpfile and an engl. documentation in Word 7 and PDF format you can download from my homepages!

The actual version of CDCOPY is always available at: http://www.cdcopy.sk http://cdcopy.actadivina.com http://members.aol.com/mbarth2193 http://come.to/cdcopy Please send feedback about supported drives! If you report any problems, please send the following information: Version of CDCOPY you use Vendor of your CDROM/CDR/DVD Operating system Which interface you use ASPI or WIN32 for Windows-NT Credits: Special thanks to A. Katranis (A.Katranis@gmx.net) and Nico Neumann for excessive testing and permanent incentive and Dilhelson Mendonca for a sleepless week caused by his conversion trip. Attention! Starting with version 3.701 I have to change the Freeware status to Shareware. Excessive bills for my internet activities doesn't allow me to improve CDCOPY for free. Answering many e-mails, updates etc. are too expensive.
