DART CD-Recorder Basic supports all DART software for reading and writing CDs of all types. CD+G format reading and writing is only supported with the DART Karaoke CD+G software.
You need a CD-ROM, CD/R or CD-R/W drive that supports CD+G and is supported by DART CD-Recorder Basic. DART CD-Recorder Basic “senses” if supported CD hardware is installed, and will show that reading CD+G CDs is enabled by making the Include CD+G checkbox appears active in the Read Track dialog box.
A quick hardware check: To check if your CD drive supports CD+G, make sure the CD+G disc you wish to read is in the “Default CD-Reader” drive (assignable in the View\Options menu), then:
1. Click on the READ TRACK
button on the tool bar to open the Read Track dialog box.
2. If the Include CD+G checkbox (last in the list of choices) is active on the Read Track dialog box, then your system meets the requirements and can read CD+G discs.
To burn a CD+G disc, you need a CD-R or CD-RW drive that supports CD+G writing, and is supported by DART CD-Recorder Basic. DART CD-Recorder Basic “senses” if supported CD hardware is installed, and will display a short message if your burner does not support CD+G writing.
A quick hardware check: To check if your CD-R or CD-RW drive support CD+G writing, make sure your playlist contains a least one CD+G file (.bin) then:
1. Click on the WRITE TO AUDIO CD
button on the toolbar.
2. If your drive doesn’t support the CD+G feature, DART CD-Recorder Basic will refuse to open the Write to audio CD dialog - a short message will be displayed instead.
