Thin Line burner compatability question, please
I'm a newbie to MTU.com and am interested in the SlimLine burner for laptops. I have a Dell Inspiron 9300 and don't know the actual dimensions of my current burner, nor have I ever tried to replace the burner in my laptop. I'd like to find out if the SlimLine will work, please.
Also, I'm an avid CDRWin and Plextor fan (I currently have the PX-760A and PX-716UF burners), so I am disappointed that the SlimLine will only work with MTU software, but am considering purchasing the software just because of the laptop SlimLine drive. Will the MTU software do all "normal" cd and dvd burning functions, please? Thank you. |
Depends on what you call normal??.
microstudio will do karaoke cdg and music cds but not dvd. also will convert all typs of music files, Great program. Bob |

Many of the slimline burners that the laptop makers put in their systems can't read CDG format, so MTU found one that does and sells it as a replacement for the included drives. And by the way they are all made the same size and with the same connectors so they are interchangable. |
Clarification
I thank you both for your replies.
This is from the MTU site regarding their laptop burner: DVD+R CD+G Certified IDE Slim-Line Internal Burner IMPORTANT NOTE: This laptop burner works ONLY with Hoster 3.303 and higher, and Microstudio 3.003 and higher. It's only because of the above quote that made me think the burner wouldn't work with other software (CDRWin, for example). I appreciate your stating that laptop burners are all the same size. My Dell Inspiron 9300 has a 17" screen and didn't know if other components may be larger also. I'll reread product support information - hoping there's a satisfaction guarantee on the burner and will try a demo version of the software. Thank you, again. |

That's so present users of older software versions won't assume that the burner will work with any version of those products. |

Admin this maybe needs a rewrite?? Quote:
As to the programs, I think you will like them all. I know I do and you will not find anything better or a company more willing to please its customers. And no I don't work for MTU. |
