dvdisaster is specialized in working with error correction data and reading
|
|
of defective media. Creating ISO or UDF images and writing them to a medium
|
|
is a totally different business, and also bears high complexity.
|
|
We do not want to re-invent medium writing in dvdisaster. Instead we
|
|
continue using the CD/DVD/BD writing software which you have got when
|
|
purchasing your drive.<p>

20-30% free space should take about 5-10 minutes on recent hardware.
