Hi people,
Does anyone know what type of blank DVDs I need to back up sunfly karaoke discs?

I should imagine any that your DVDR and karaoke player will accept.

kareoke are very funny files. there are 2 files the music and the text file .... i used to know how to do it but with out thinking cant remember...
but i do know the only program i could find was disc juggler that would keep the files together on transfer and burn .. also i used to back up on cdr not dvdr . :)

But no mention of which disks to use:D

yes thats correct you need to use disk juggler we tried with winon / clone /and easy cd creator with a bad out come not too sure about the new nero might be worth trying.

Are you sure they are DVDs?

Most karaoke disks are special CDs called CDG or CD+G.
They are quite difficult to copy because you need a compatible CD writer and software which is CDG format compatible. Most CD writers cannot handle CDG format.

most KJs nowadays use a laptop for their Karaoke files & they are in a mp3+g format,which means they can burn them to a normal cd
with the right program

you have to have a cd burner that can read & write the special CDG
tracks A TDK Cyclone is what I used + Disc Juggler,lots of cd
burners can read the tracks but cannot write them,
look at the specs on cd burners & get 1 that does both, the same probably applies to dvds if they are CDGs

Ive been using disk juggler version 4 with pioneer writers teac and philips no problems although i dont do these my mate who is a dj comes and uses my machines and has done hundreds so i know for a fact this works.disk juggler dos have to be set correct though no good just going on and trying to burn one.

Well, they are all wrong...you can use ANY dvd writer - all it takes is the appropriate software.

MP3 Toolz and Daemon tools will do it......BUT, as "muddy coffee" stated, it can be run from a pc or laptop in CDG format even easier....

Ok well what CDs do I need to use? I have got some DVD+R discs but when I try coping them with nero it says please insert correct media type

Are you sure there not just normal cds because i think you will find they are

Hmmm well i thought I had to use DVDs, Ill give it a try

lol well all my mate uses is normal cds like i said before i dont actualy do these but he uses my machines to do them maybe there is a dvd version now but i aint heard anything.

use cd`s not dvd`s .. and any cd will work .. its the program and writer thats cruicial.. i know liteon will do cdg.

maybe im lucky but never had one yet that cant read cdg even down to old 4 speed cd writers.

I disagree, I had to put an old CD writer back in to make it work.

Right,
Im still having trouble, I havent even got round to using blank Cds yet, when its doing the CD image with Nero7 it gets to about 70% then just stops.

I then tried with CloneCD and it gets to about 60% then says bad sectors and stops.

It does this with my PC and my laptop, It also does it with all the 50 Karaoke discs Im trying to backup.

Any more Ideas what I can try?

if ya got clone just check ur writer dos support cdg i know that tells ya cant remember how else ya check

I got a liteon writer here far as i know it works if you want it i know thats ok with cdg can test it ya tomorrow see if it is working if its impotant.

Yes its important, we are not allowed to give the kids theses discs

Just tried Disc Juggler and it still isnt working, it gets to track 12 then stops

oh poop i forgot about the liteon been busy all day disk juggler dos do them i know for a fact run cd clone cant remember were but it tells you what the writers support you can collect this if you want it.
It sounds to me like your writer cos i found all the others will read and write no problem but they seem to leave sumat out couldnt say what unless i can get intouch with mate.

ok try this in juggler go into advance options tick the ignore all errors tick rw cd+g im sure theres another option as well but cant think maybe raw read and write cant find mates number if you do call for this writer i can point his house out to you though.

just been doing a bit of testing
open disk juggler
select file menu new menu select the copy cds and dvds ok insert cdg now go to advance settings select rw cd+g select raw read and write click on select source destination tab drop the write speed down slower the better now click start should now read cdg insert cd after read insert blank . cdg Should now be created.
If that dosnt work tick the ignore errors and if that fails you need to replace that writer
Can asure you that works.

Right Ive managed to find a tutorial on how to back up cdg discs witjh discjuggler. It managed to cache all the files to the pc but when its finished there is no option to select write and it doesnt say insert a blank disc

when burning with nero theres an option in cd copy to "ignore errors" i know you had to use this for burning playstation games as they had built in eorrors to thwart copying.

just noticed my nero....6.6.6 in cd copy has an option for kareoke cds????

HOWEVER
im just looking on neros infotool and in the discs it READS...cd+g is NOT ticked (so it doesnt play cd+g discs on this drive)

nope my cd writer doesnt read em either

:hihi:buy a good writer ney just joking wiered that never had one yet that hasnt read cdg but there ya go.yep nero can backup cdg but still found diskjuggler in my mates oppinion is better than clone winon easycd ect i think it was somthing to do with lyrics on the disk. he is a dj and must have done at least 200 on my machines so i assume he knows best.
