Free dvd burning software

jwtruth35

Can anyone tell me where to get a program to burn jpegs or whatever to a dvd for archiving? The problem with the one I have is it won't burn a large amount to multiple discs. I have to try to guess how much I can fit on one disc then run the program as many times as I need to get everything copied

the problem I have had with software that will ask for more disks when one is full is that, the ones I have used, would burn a partial of the last file and put the rest on the new disk and that meant I lost one file per disk.....I now use Roxio Creator....and always burn with the classic part of the burner.....it will tell you how many disks it will take to burn your photos...but I always just add folders until I get to approx 85-90% of the disk full and quit......now instead of buring disks to archive I use 3 internal hard drives in an external dock...and I am switching from desktop drives to laptop drives to save even more space.....plus a SmugMug site to keep all of my jpgs in for a 4th back up......
Hard drives are actually way cheaper than even just retail disks any more and take up waaaay lesss room.

Good Luck
