i thought i read somewhere that i can add more photos onto a cd-r after i had something already on it... is this possible? i thought i read where you dont close the session or burn and youll be able to add to it?

i have several photos ready to put on CD-R only have like 30 mb of photos right now.. i would like to put them on a cd-r so i can view the photos in my dvd player.. the only problem is that i only have 30 mb of photos right now and dont want to waste the rest of the 600 plus mb's on the cd-r so is there a way to add more photos to a cd-r disc?

thanks

Hiya diablo,

Yes, it is possible, but very dependant upon the following:

1 - when you last burned that cd, did you close the disk? if yes, then you are S.O.L.
2 - when you last burned that cd, was it created with No Multisession? if yes, then you are S.O.L.
3 - if the disk IS multisession & not closed, does your DVD player support multisession Photo-CDs? if no, then you are S.O.L.

To be truthful, with all the problems you could get into (losing the ones you have already burned is a real possibility), it is not worth trying..

Blank CDs are CHEAP.

If you REALLY want to re-use CDs in that manner, get a couple of very good-quality CD-RWs and use them until they are full then transfer onto CD-Rs, wipe the CD-RW and start again.

Just trying to guide you away from a load of hassle ;)

Hope this helps...

i have an option on Nero express to finalize cd, is that to close the cd. so leave it unchecked to keep it open..

Hiya,

It needs to be a multisession as well.

I don't know if Nero Express is up to the job, you may need the full version of Nero to do what you need.

Have a look at the helpfile that came with your version of Nero, there should be some info in there about Multi-Session and continuing/adding to multi-session.

Have Fun...
