What if I can't back up to my CD / DVD directly?

Data Backup Software for Windows Professional Tool GRBackPro...
Simply cease to use CD / DVD as a direct target for your backup operations. Set up GRBackPro to run your scheduled events and let it create backups to your hard drive automatically. Every week or month you can copy the backup copies created with GRBackPro to your CD / DVD device manually, with your favorite CD / DVD recording software or Windows XP built-in CD / DVD recording feature. If it's really necessary to run automatic CD / DVD backups, consider buying a good packet-writing tool.

Can I backup directly to a CD-DVD?

Cobian's site - The home of Cobian Backup
Cobian Backup does not contain burning drivers, so you must rely on 3d party drivers. It is NOT recommended to backup directly to a CD. You can use for example, DirectWrite or other tool for this. Be aware that compressing is an operation that does NOT copy the files sequentially, but creates a lot of temporary files, etc, so DO NOT compress to a CD. Copying without compression is not safe either, but if you want SO MUCH to copy directly to the CD, check "Always use ShFileOperation".

Are there any Bricolage System that runs directly from CD?

Bric::FAQ - Bricolage Frequently Asked Questions
There is currently an effort to make a KNOPPIX-style CD for Bricolage. Informally this CD is known as KNOPPIX with Bricolage. It is a CD that contains a Linux Distribution (Debian in this case) with Bricolage preinstalled. The system is self-contained on a CD and the user merely needs to boot an i386-compatible computer from the CD. The CD will not in any way alter the content of your hard disk. This CD is useful for evaluating Bricolage since it removes the hassle of installation.

Why can't I backup to a CD or DVD drive?

Skylog - More Information
Skylog backups work with CD/DVD Re-Writable drives (CD±RW/DVD±RW/DVD-RAM drives) if a proper third party packet writing device driver is installed and configured with your drive. The driver should make the CD/DVD behave like a hard disk. Packet writing software can write only to CD/DVDs if the disks are formatted using the Universal Data Format (UDF) file system.

Will GRBackPro back up to my CD / DVD drive?

Data Backup Software for Windows Professional Tool GRBackPro...
Yes. Writing to CD and DVD discs is supported as long as you have some packet writing software installed on your computer. It usually comes bundled as a part of larger CD / DVD recording software packages and makes your CD or DVD drive act as a standard, transparently write-enabled drive. Packet writing software uses UDF-formatted CD and DVD discs, and allows GRBackPro to write to your CD / DVD drive by treating it like a hard disk or a floppy diskette, using the regular drive letter.

Is CD audio (CD-DA) compatible with DVD?

Hier finden Sie die aktuellen Infos zur DVD Technologie
Yes. All DVD players and drives will read audio CDs (Red Book). This is not actually required by the DVD spec, but so far all manufacturers have stated that their DVD hardware will read CDs. On the other hand, you can't play a DVD in a CD player. (The pits are smaller, the tracks are closer together, the data layer is a different distance from the surface, the modulation is different, the error correction coding is new, etc.)

Is Video CD compatible with DVD?

Hier finden Sie die aktuellen Infos zur DVD Technologie
Sometimes. It's not required by the DVD spec, but it's trivial to support the Video CD (White Book) standard since any MPEG-2 decoder can also decode MPEG-1 from a Video CD. Panasonic, RCA, Samsung, and Sony models play Video CDs. Japanese Pioneer models play Video CDs but American models older than the DVL-909 don't. Toshiba players older than models 2100, 3107, and 3108 don't play Video CDs. VCD resolution is 352x288 for PAL and 352x240 for NTSC.

Is Photo CD compatible with DVD?

Hier finden Sie die aktuellen Infos zur DVD Technologie
Not yet. Since Photo CDs are usually on CD-R media, they may suffer from the CD-R problem (see 2.4.3). That aside, DVD players could support Photo CD with a few extra chips and a license from Kodak. No one has announced such a player. Most DVD-ROM drives will read Photo CDs (if they read CD-Rs) since it's trivial to support the XA and Orange Book multisession standards.
