27 v2.9992 03 Mar 2003
Download Location 1
Release Information (by the Manufacturer)

Default the burning engine to Goldenhawk, as it appears more reliable at this point. If no cd recorders are found, we auto switch to Gear. Note this will only happen if you have never installed the software before. Anyone having problems with the old versions, might install this version and then go into Preferences and switch to the Goldenhawk burning engine. We are working on resolving the issues related to Gear, but this will take at least a month.

Automatic warning if you have installed the Intel Application Accelerator. There is a conflict when using our software with the Gear engine.

Now installing the Acoustica ASPI drivers by default.

Fix for audio CDs that have a data track as the first track. This would happen on mixed mode CDs such as a computer game with a CD audio session as the second session.

Release Information (by the Manufacturer)

Bug Fix: In some cases, the first frame of an MP3 was getting corrupted by the id3v2 tag...it would have resulted in an occasional MP3 with wild looking bitrate info.
Bug Fix: In some cases, when launching the cd burner with an audio cd in the drive, it would think that there was a blank cd in the drive.
Logging change. We now only store one file when there is a crash which is called 'cdburner-crash.txt'. Also, the user is not notified of this file being created. This will simplify support and still allow us to diagnose hard to reproduce problems.
