Bugs and Limitations
There are some known problems in this version:
- CloneCD allows you to select a faster write speed than the drive allows.
This is not really a bug, it is just a cosmetic glitch. If you select 6x
speed with a 2x writer, it will simply write 2x.
- Modifying the Lead-Out time of MultiSession CDs can lead to unpredictable
results.
- Reading Subchannel Data from Data Tracks with Plextor CD-ROMs, Sony CD-ROMs, Sony CD-Writers CR-X120E,
CR-X140E/S, CR-X145E/S, CR.X160E, Hewlett Packard CD-Writers 8200i, 8210i, 9100i,
9110i, 9200i, 9210i, 9300i, 9310i, 9500i, 9600i will
always enable Fast Error Skip, too. You might need to reduce the read speed
for reliable results!

Version 3.0.0.7 18 April 2001 (1st public beta release)
This is a completely reworked CloneCD. It is better, faster and more reliable
than any previous version!
New features:
- Major redesign of all functions.
- "Copy on the Fly" added, including copy of Subchannel Data, ISRC
numbers, Catalog Numbers, CD+G, CD+Midi, PreGaps and Indices *WITHOUT* the
need of time consuming "Subchannel Scans" before the start
(requires DAO-RAW capable writer).
- Own Memory Allocation, which prevents Windows to "swap out"
buffers. This works with Windows 9X/ME and Windows NT/2000!
- Error skipping with several CD-ROMs or DVD-ROMs (e.g., TOSHIBA) up to 3
times faster!
- CloneCD can be launched several times. If you start CloneCD several times,
you can write the same image file on different recorders at the same time!
- Added optional creation of "Cue-Sheets". "Cue-Sheets"
can be used to process images created with CloneCD with many other CD-Writing applications, e.g. Nero.
- Added option to abort on read errors.
- Some options which only confused people have been removed.
- Improved SAO-RAW mode. SAO-RAW mode can now copy MultiSession, CD-Extra,
ISRC Numbers, Catalog Numbers, Gaps and Indices.
- Added "SAO" (without RAW) mode, so the "rest of the MMC
CD-Writers" is now supported as well (SONY CRX-100, HP8100, Toshiba
SDR-1002, just to name a few)
- Redesigned File I/O.
- All I/O operations are now timed to prevent, that CloneCD
"hangs" forever.
- Redesigned UI. Easier to use.
- All functions can be controlled by the keyboard.
- UI improved for blind or visually impaired people.
- Added "Wait for Disc Insertion" Sound.
- Demo Version now writes at full speed and saves all settings.
- Demo Version is restricted to 21 days of trial time.
- Locale Editor allows you to create your own localized CloneCD version.
- Language can be switched "on the fly".
- Added "ccddriver.dll". If support for new CD-Writers is added in
a future version, only this small file needs to be updated.
- Many more CD-Recorders are supported, e.g. ACER CD-RW 1208 including
CD-Text / CD+G writing and Seamless Link, AOPEN CRW1232-A/Pro including Just
Link, NEC NR-7700A including Burn Proof,
RICOH 7125 including Just Link, SANYO BP1500 and SANYO BP5 including
