Copying photos to CD

[sp1214]

I have a number of photos in different locations which I want to copy to a CD (-R). Is there a way of keeping open the CD so that it does not finalise each time.

Depends on your software.I use Nero which can be set for multi-session writing.You will have to finalise after the last addition if you want to be able to play elsewhere.How about putting them on to either a USB key drive or even a large capacity memory card until you have everything you want,then write the CD

if you have to ask the question ... don't risk it .....
CDs are cheap enough ....
and you only get to create 4 sessions (each with a 22Mb overhead + files .... so it's quite wasteful)
if you can't face the waste .... use CDrw (but you'll pay extra)

A HDD is statistically far more reliable than any other medium ..... so holding your pikkies in a folder and burning them in one shot isn't that risky a bet (famous last words)

a CDs worth of pikkies is a lot of pikkies ... I have a couple of friends who are pros and they store pikkies 1 per session. That way you can't loose your life's work with one scratch
