I searched all the sources of PBurn and it seemed as if each mechanism was widely distributed over several files. I failed to track how that info was gathered.Flash wrote:Menu -> Multimedia -> Pburn has Disc info under the Tools tab. It might not be exactly what you're looking for, but maybe it points in the right direction?

Usually drive icon shows amount of data stored in the disk.8-bit wrote: Well, how about bad information?
I have some memorex DVD+R optical disks of 4.7 gig capacity.
I insert one in the DVD drive.
The icon for it appears on the desktop.
So far, so good.
But a mouse over shows the capacity as 2.2 gig.
Then I open Pburn.
Lo and behold, the capacity in Pburn is listed correctly at 4.7 gig.
Does this mean there is an error in how the desktop drive icon software package determines capacity of a device?
Do you get the same results as I do?
