General Tab
The General tab contains options controlling how RecordNow handles your
recording jobs. Use the General tab to customize the following settings.
Eject drives automatically:
A check mark in this box causes RecordNow to automatically open your recorder
drive tray when RecordNow is ready to accept a disc for recording.
Remind me to shut down my programs before a disc is created:
A check mark in this box causes RecordNow to display a reminder to close all other
applications before beginning a recording session.
If you check the "Do not show me this again" box in the reminder dialog, this
reminder will no longer appear until you re-check the Remind me to shut down my
programs before a disc is created box.
NOTE:
NOTE: NOTE:
NOTE:
For maximum performance, close all other applications before recording a
disc. This includes any screen savers or anti-virus software you may have
running.
Warn me if I can’t create a full Music Disc:
A check mark in this box causes RecordNow to display a warning if there is not
enough free space on your hard disk to stage the audio tracks when making a music
disc from other CDs.
RecordNow uses this hard disk space to make a temporary copy of your tracks from
your music CDs. If there is not enough space on your hard disk RecordNow will still
allow you to record to your disc, but depending on the amount of available space on
your hard disk, some of your tracks may not record.
Hide audio files shorter than (in seconds):
A check mark in this box causes RecordNow to only search for audio files longer than
the number of seconds you specify. This number can be anywhere between 1 and 999
seconds.
This option speeds up the search process by eliminating the short audio files, most of
which are the ones you hear when Windows starts up, or closes a program.
Warn me when appending to a data disc:
A check mark in this box causes RecordNow to display a warning when you add data
to a disc that already has information written to it.
Verify the data written to the disc after write:
A check mark in this box causes RecordNow to verify that no errors occurred during
the recording of your data disc.

Advanced tab contains options controlling the default settings for your optical
drive, and determines how RecordNow handles re-writable media. Use the Advanced
tab to customize the following settings.
Limit the maximum recorder speed to:
Specify a recording speed from the drop-down menu if you want RecordNow to
control the recorder speed.
This option is useful if your recorder speed is faster than the drive you are using to
read your source disc. If you experience errors during recording try reducing the
maximum recorder speed to a speed equal to or slower than the read speed of the
drive you are using to read your source disc.
Always do a full erase on rewritable media:
A check mark in this box causes RecordNow to automatically erase the contents of
rewritable media before beginning a recording.
Test operation before recording discs:
A check mark in this box causes RecordNow to test its reading process before
beginning to record. This feature can help catch potential problems before recording
and prevent wasting media due to a failed recording process.
!
Caution: When appending data to a disc with data already
written to it, any new files being copied will overwrite any files
already on the disc with the same name. This process makes any
information in the old file inaccessible.
