drive brand may be different from the drive shown.
Figure 4-7. X-CD-Roast Setup Screen
Check your CD-R(W) manufacturer documentation to set some of the CD Settings options, such as
CD Writer Speed and CD Writer FIFO-Buffer Size. All CD image (.iso or .img) files need to be
stored in a central location accessible to X-CD-Roast. You will have to specify a path on your hard
drive’s file system that has at least 700 Megabytes (MB) of free space available. You can configure
the path where you wish to store CD images in the HD Settings tab under Path.
X-CD-Roast is well-documented within the interface itself, as several of the options have long, de-
scriptive pop-up tips that informs you of the associated function in detail. You can access these tooltips
by leaving your mouse pointer on a button or drop-down menu for at least two seconds.
4.3.1.1. Using X-CD-Roast to Duplicate CD-ROMs
To duplicate an existing CD-ROM for backup purposes, click the Duplicate CD button in the main
panel. You can read all of the tracks on a CD — all CD-ROM information, including data and audio, is
stored on tracks — by clicking Read CD. You can set the speed at which you read a CD-ROM as well
as find out some information about the CD-ROM track such as its type and size. If you are copying
tracks from an audio CD, you can preview each track with Play Audio-Tracks. Since X-CD-Roast
reads all tracks of a CD-ROM by default, you can delete unwanted tracks with Delete Tracks.
Finally, to burn your tracks onto CD-R(W) media, choose Write CD. Figure 4-8 shows the Write
CD dialog box, where you can configure the speed at which you read and write the tracks to CD-R as
well as whether you wish to copy the CD-ROM on-the-fly or create an image file first before burning,
which is recommended to prevent write or read errors from occurring during the duplication process.
Click the Write CD button to start the burning process.
