<string in about requester> = <version string(s)>
- <List of changes>
Release 1.0 = MakeCD 0.26 (23.10.96)
- unsupported public beta version for Meeting Pearls IV.
- see note on next release.
Release 1.0 = MakeCD 1.1 (14.11.96)
- initial non-beta version.
- yes, the string in the about requester did not change. :-(.
use "version full MakeCD" to find out the exact version.
Release 1.1 = MakeCD 1.8
ReadWrite.module 1.9
SCSISupport.module 3.3

- Rewrote reading/writing (new: ReadWrite.module)
- ExAll() is used optionally, GUI is updated only every second
=> improved performance
Scanning source paths is up to eight times faster now (compared
to V1.0 with enabled GUI display).
- More detailed error messages (all SCSI errors documented
for CDD2000 or CDR-102 are explained with texts).
- Instead of always using parallel IO MakeCD can be forced to
read and write alternating. Try this if you had performance
problems.
- When reading/writing of a track fails, you can choose how
to continue in a requester.
- GUI for image creation is independent from reading and writing,
i.e. opening the window's menu will not stop the image writing.
- Writing speed can be set seperately for copying of audio
tracks.
- In the track list of a CD the start and end block of each
track are listed => this way you can see if the driver could
find the real track length. However, this is currently only
the case with CD-Rs in a CD writer. Usually the tracks are
listed including the pauses.
- Mode 2 (XA) tracks are fully supported now.
- You can set speed for audio reading/copying seperately.
- You can select all tracks of a source CD at once for copying.
- The Philips drivers send a RECOVER command as repair action:
This helps to recover when power down occured while writing.
The CD-R must not be removed before repairing.
- Global switch between Motorola and Intel (MSF/LSF) audio format.
- MakeCD makes sure the PMA (Program Memory Area) is updated when it
stops writing tracks now. The Yamaha writer has no special command
for this, so driver ejects the CD-R automatically. This has the same
effect.
- minor improvements
- Bugfix: ISO images created with MakeCD were invalid sometimes:
Especially large files might have been trashed.
- Bugfix: Sometimes a wrong table of contents was written to CD-R.
- Bugfix: A leading underscore in the ISO volume name is allowed.
- Bugfix: Opening "Target CD-R" window trashed one byte of MakeCD's
own memory.
- Bugfix: When using the "Target CD-R" window for fixation, the TOC
type was fixed to CD-ROM. Now the correct type is always selected
automatically.
- Workaround for some CD-ROM drives: TOC is read at once. Fixes
problem with invalid track type and length.
- Path prefixes cause invalid images => disabled for 1.1, not fixed yet.
Release 1.2 = MakeCD 1.9 (01.01.97)
makecdromfs.module 4.0

- Bugfix (1.1): The volume name was always UNREGISTERED.
- Bugfix (1.1): SCSI drivers were only found when MakeCD was started with
the current directory set to its home directory.
- Bugfix: The installer script didn't copy the ReadWrite.module
- New: You can choose using an image file instead of the usual source even
if the sizes differ.
Known Problems:
- PhilipsCDD2600.driver is beta: reading does not work yet.
- Path prefixes for source paths had to be disabled.
