Nero 5.5.10.54 or 6.3.0.3?

[Moloko_Plus]

Im interested in hearing who likes the good ol' stable 5 version and who prefers the most up-to-date software. Personally i have 6.3.0.2 but im considering going back to 5.5.10.54 because its very light, stable, free of bloatware, does a great job and doesn't need an upgrade every 3 weeks for bugs found.

I have 5.5.10.54 and I don't plan on upgrading. It's stable and it works.

[ghoster]

know that good old saying everyone uses. if it ain't broke don't fix it.......

[BJ_M]

i also have 5.5 something -- though i dont use to burn video dvd's (i will stick with prassi) .. on everything else it works fine .. i see no reason to upgrade to 6

[Moloko_Plus]

Exactly, if it aint broke dont fix it. I wonder if theres anything 6 does that 5 wont do?
I for one am just really pissed off that there has to be a new nero released every 3 weeks or so..Its getting really old, just a few days ago we had 6.3.0.2 and now theres a whole new 15 meg 6.3.0.3
The coolest part about 5 is that you can edit the registry so it will show you the Real burn speed..Not sure if thats been figured out in 6.
Doesnt even have a wizard in nero 6..Kinda odd.

Is there somewhere on nero's site that says exactly what has been updated with the version history?

[JohnnyCNote]

I've had very good results with both versions, but I use the latest update to version 6 because it has Recode, which works great with DVDDecrypter to "back-uo" DVD's (at least for me)....

I ve had stability/coaster issues with Nero version 6.x.x on a win2K platform with Pioneer A-05 and Teac w50d burners.
I rolled back to 5.5.10.54 and its working just fine now!!

I still use 5.5.10.54. Works fine with all of my drives; No reason to change.

couldn't get nero 5.5.10 to work AT ALL with a NEC 1300A or a LG4040B (just wouldn't recognize either burner as a DVD or CD burner......) but no probs at all with 6.3.

Maybe multi-format burners are the reason for Nero 6?

For me 6.3 is the doggies..............but i said that about 5.5 when i was only burning CD's......horses for courses?

nero dont work clone dvd is stable but not that versatile

??couldn't get nero 5.5.10 to work AT ALL?/

I could not either, until I realised that I was using the Nero that came with my LiteOn, won't work with other makes.

5.5.10.54 works with the LG 4040b. Goto: http://www.nero.com/us/631933457317970.html

60 burns on Princo's at 4x and rising, all perfect. :P

I have Nero 5 and it does not burn DVDs. Is there a free upgrade anywhere?

5.5

[Sakuya]

Oooh! I can't believe there really is! Thanks!

nero 5.5.x for cd burning (i also like the reghack for displaying real cd burn speeds)
recordnow max/prassi for dvd burning

nero is just too inconsistent as far as dvd burning goes.

[monzie]

seems to me its the luck of the draw ( or hardware v software ) whe it comes to Nero.

But.... taking DVD rw's to one side....i find 6.3 make' s SVCDs and tricky cue/bins far better than 5.5....no more coasters............but, again, thats probably the way it is..........no rules.

Just as I've said many times, "individual results may vary."

[Sakuya]

Does anyone know if Nero 5.5 (or up) can have still menus and selectable subs and whatnot?

[energy80s]

I also use Nero 5.5 for CD / VCD burning, but wouldn't recommend it for DVD burning as it has a habit of producing incompatible burns.
