Thought I'd share this idea for a button. Occasionally I want to copy a disc - this provides a free 1-click, single button solution.
Using ImgBurn (Freeware)
http://www.imgburn.com/, its' CLi & the following script to make a batch file:-
@echo off
"C:\Program Files\ImgBurn\ImgBurn" /mode isoread /src e: /dest "%temp%\disccopy.iso" /overwrite yes /eject yes /close /start /waitformedia
"C:\Program Files\ImgBurn\ImgBurn" /mode isowrite /dest e: /src "%temp%\disccopy.iso" /eject yes /closesuccess /start /waitformedia /verify yes /deleteimage yes /log "C:\Users\<<<<User>>>>\Documents\Copy_[DATETIME].log"
- Save above code as IMcopy.bat (or some other .bat).
[N.B. Edit the path for the imgburn install as req'd - e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\ for x64 OS; edit the
source (/src) &
destination (/dest) drive letters for the RW drive(s) being used - code above assigns to drive
e:.]
- Drag/drop the .bat to the user button area of the MC taskbar
- If req'd - Right-click on the new .bat icon - customize; Assign an icon
(I attach the free dvd_add.png converted to .ico from fatcow
www.fatcow.com/free-icons that I felt was suitable.)
After job completion a date & time named .log is generated, adjust name & destination as req'd, I set the "My Documents" folder path this req's the user name to be entered between the <....>'s. Or alter as req'd.
This will open Imgburn & cycle the tray as needed, create a temp image, verify the burnt disc & delete the temp image on completion. Log is written & Imgburn will close.
FYI - To further modify this script - All the CLI commands are in the imgburn readme & any .bat script will always override the GUI.
