anybody have any opinions on nero 6 and nero 7? I've had nero 6 for many years, and it's worked excellent! And I've let this nero 7 settle out here for 8 months and I'm curious now, is it a good upgrade? Do I need it? Whatsha think? Should I jump into this version 7? *thanxz*

Alot of people still use Nero 6, I'd be tempted to say most. I use Nero 7 and have had no problems with it, some have. I say if it ain't broke don't fix it. If you are having a good experience with 6 then don't let 7 change your mind about Nero.

okey dokey! Just checkin! Nero 6 has done everything I've asked it to do, no problemas so far?! So if there's nothing I'm missing out on, reckon I'll just keep what I've got! Thank you for the comparison!!

No problem, personally I wouldn't waste the money if 6 is working for you. I started with 7 and use it almost exclusively, so I can't really comment on 6, all I know is what I see here on the forum and alot people still use 6.

I used Nero6 up until Nero7 was released. Some versions of both contain a lot of bugs however since switching to Nero7 I have been happy with my results. If you are going to purchase a version I would recommend Nero7, however steer clear of their latest versions
7.2.0.3 and 7.2.0.3b...they are "shockers" go for version 7.0.8.2, a very stable version, you can get it from here.
http://www.filehippo.com click on Nero 7.2.0.3 and then select 7.0.8.2 for a bug free version

Hi Gwendolin
I tried the download you suggested (7.0.8.2 from http://www.filehippo.com). Firstly it insisted on uninstalling my fully licensed copy of Nero 6, followed by three re-boots as it removed each module. Then it would not install version 7, saying that the demo version had expired.
Any suggestions would be gratefuly received.
Best wishes
Graham

I am glad to see this thread. My Nero 6 is too slow in Make Your Own DVD Video mode. It takes 8-10 hours when I add VOB files and make disc. I am thinking about Nero 7 upgrade. Does Nero 7 have the same problem?

Thanks in advance,

Just to add that i've been using Ver 6 for a while now, and so far, it has worked wonders.(This version mainly - 6.6.0.18)

A few months ago i had a reformat and installed Nero 7 Premium Edition. I found nothing new worth having and because it was a buggy version as well,(7.0.0.0) i ended up re-installing my old sweet ver 6... Had i got the 'clean' ver 7.0.8.2, i probably would have kept it.

So bottom line is: If you have ver 6 and it works fine, don't bother upgrading. If you don't have Nero installed, then by all means, go for ver 7...
[edit] WTF?


If it ain't broken it doesn't need fixing...

Are you talking NVE? It will always take a couple of hours, but that really depends on the grunt of your machine. Slower pc's will drag like hell, the slowest i ever had was about 3.5 hours... But i was doing a few downloads at the time so i was multitasking. I normally don't take more than 2 hours. Close everything in the background, net and anti-virus included and try again. That could very well be the reason.

@Graham2, I believe that it depends on how old your version of Nero6 is if you can update to Nero7 at no charge....you can keep updating Nero6 free of charge
What I would suggest is to make a note of your serial number and then uninstall your version of Nero6, run this clean tool and then install Nero7 from here
http://www.filehippo.com click on Nero 7.2.0.3 and then select 7.0.8.2 for a bug free version if it asks for a serial number then enter the one you have, if it doesnt work then you will have to revert back to Nero6 from herehttp://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/Nero-6.6.0.18_no_yt.exe

Thanks, Gwendolin, for the speedy reply. I will try your suggestion tomorrow. But I don't think that Nero allows a free upgrade from 6 to 7. The download of 7.0.8.2 from http://www.filehippo.com contains an embedded serial number which I assumed was a demo serial number so I used that, but it had expired.

Some of the advice in this thread seems to be saying that version 6 is pretty much as good as version 7. Since I have a fully licensed copy of version 6, I may be better to stick with that.

Regards
Graham
