Toast 9 - How to Burn DVDs?

[vja4Him]

Does anyone use Toast 9 for saving files to DVDs? I just purchased a LaCie d2 DVD/RW Drive, and need some help ...

Several years back I tried burning DVDs using the internal DVD drive on my iBook, and what happened is that everytime I burned files to the DVDs, I couldn't go back and add more files. So I was only able to save files one time, then the DVD was no longer usable for burning files.

I know there is a setting that will allow you to continue saving a few files at a time. How exactly do I do that?

Would that be the Write Session mode?

I have the LaCie DVD drive connected to my iBook G4, running OS X 10.4.11.

You can do as you want, however, you will be mounting 2, then 3, etc. everytime you add files to the CD/DVD.

Only way that I know of to have them all together is to use DVD-RW or CD-RW (re-write), and even at that, you need to save current files to your computer, erase DVD, and re-write.

I know exactly what you are talking about! I remember having that happen on my old LaCie SCSI burner, which worked flawlessly!

There was a setting to avoid mounting another disk image everytime you saved files, but I can't remember what the fix was ....

I was able to figure out how to save multiple times, and when I inserted the CD, only one image would mount.
