pBurn 4.3.19
Right-clicking a directory in Pburn's left window transfers that directory to Pburn's right window (what I call Pburn's burn window). But if there are a hundred directories to transfer to the burn window, this takes a while. I have not found a way to select a bunch of directories in Pburn's left window (for instance by left-clicking the area between directories and then dragging, as I can do in ROX, or by holding down a key such as the Ctrl key while right-clicking directories in a list). If I could somehow select a large group of directories from a list in Pburn's left window, then right-click the selected directories to transfer them en masse to the burn window, I'd be a happy camper.
Now that you've forced me to think about it, it does seem that right-clicking a hundred individual subdirectories in Pburn would almost certainly have been faster than copying them from one directory to another, then right-clicking that directory in Pburn. So maybe I'm making a mountain out of a molehill

Oh, sure. When Zigbert talked about multiple selection in Pfind I was thinking you would have to click them all one at a time. But yes, it would be much faster if it was possible to click and drag, or shift-click the first and last files, to select a large number.I have not found a way to select a bunch of directories in Pburn's left window (for instance by left-clicking the area between directories and then dragging, as I can do in ROX, or by holding down a key such as the Ctrl key while right-clicking directories in a list)

Thank you Sigmund! Pburn is truly ready for the big time now.
I installed Pburn 3.7.3, opened it and navigated its built-in browser to a directory that contains many subdirectories, each of which contains many mp3 files. I was able to select a large contiguous group of these subdirectories by holding down the Shift key while left-clicking the first and last of the group of subdirectories that I wanted to burn. I also found I could select individual subdirectories by holding down the Ctrl key while left-clicking the desired subdirectories. Once the subdirectories I wanted were selected, I clicked the + sign in Pburn and the selected directories showed up in the burn window. Excellent work!
Anyone who burns data to optical disks, CD, DVD or Blu-Ray, should try Pburn.

I thought that burning was yesterdays technology, but it seems that BD has given it new life. I have recently been in contact with several users that wants Pburn to run in other distros. Someone is spreading the word.....Flash wrote:Anyone who burns data to optical disks, CD, DVD or Blu-Ray, should try Pburn.
Thank you for your testing and reports

Just guessing, but I think most users would be using Pburn to burn live CDs or DVDs of Puppy isos, in which case burning a multisession disk makes multisession Puppy an automatic option. Otherwise I don't think it matters if the iso is burned on a multisession disk, it will still boot the same. I could be wrong.majorfoo wrote:... would not most users close session when burning iso?
Pburn and UDF. Is there any chance of a marriage in Puppy
@Zigbert, could you weigh-in here? Your expertise and your insight could help the community with your views and efforts.
One of the problems here is when the UDF CD/DVD/BD is inserted. It will not mount in Puppy, So, I not sure if PBUrn will be able to provide community assistance. But, you may have a recommendation for Barry or others of us to help.
Thanks in advance for any advice you provide us.

UDF request again.
I understand that you might not want to acknowledge UDF, but please look at this. I feel it might trigger something you may know about that would help.zigbert wrote:... when it comes to UDF. The Universal-Disc-Format ... I have added UDF in Pburn simply because mkisofs supports it.
Sigmund
The community has found how to get PUPs to register the DVD/CD/BluRay, and ROX presents its for access and use. But there is this issue, now that the system see it, where PBurn may need something to allow/accomplish writing.

Zigbert's made it clear on more than one occasion that he doesn't have anything against UDF, he's just not the right person to ask about this problem. If you want to solve it you should either find the right person to ask, or do some research and solve it yourself.

Burning further sessions to an already used disc requires to use the (exact) same burning settings as the initial session. That is why further burning often fails even if trying to continue burning of a Linux-burnt disc. Another burning app might use different default settings. If you imaging to continue to write to a disc initialized in Windows for UDF (which is not Universal), I think you are aiming high.
BUT! On the other hand. If you succeed and Pburn requires some tweaking to work, I am more than happy to include new improvements to the next Pburn release.

I think there must be some way to detect the right settings... but the initial problem they're dealing with in that thread is just reading the disks!If you imaging to continue to write to a disc initialized in Windows for UDF (which is not Universal), I think you are aiming high.

Using UDF media
Thanks @Zigbert for your understanding
I understood (even the first time you replied on your thread) what you are getting at.
And yes, there seems to be 2 distinct issues; one of which is identified and addressed, while the other surfaced immediately after.
The issues:
Thanks, thus far for your and @Disciple's insights and assistance you provide to this area of media.

The issues:
- Recognition of the media and mounting (addressed)
- With mounted media, the ability to write/generate a UDF media which can continue to read/written to from Linux/Macs/Windows.
