Re: Quick Way To Check CD/DVDs After Burning (W/out Checksum)

If you're using Toast Toto I use the "Compare" function under Utilities. Drag the original VIDEO_TS and burned VIDEO_TS into the window in their respective locations.

I used to do this: make checksums for every burned disc and visually compare them with the checksums for the downloaded files, but that takes a while. I have found that if the "compare" checks out, the md5s are the exact same (I used to compare and make md5s, very time consuming). And this makes it easier because when Toast sometimes changes the .bup and .ifo I don't need to take an md5 of the whole disc, just those 2 small files. Also, have the program "verify" the disc after it's burned under Recorder > Recorder Settings > Advanced. I also turn on buffer underrun protection and DAO (obviously).
