I'm after some software that will copy my data to DVD (not backup) so leaving it in a readable format. But this needs to be able to be scheduled/automated. Have found software that copies data to DVD leaving it a readable format but you can't schedule this. Have found software that will backup with a schedule to DVD but this leaves the data not in a readable format on the disk (i.e. needs restoring before you can read it). Anyone know of any software that can do this?
Hiya golfnet, There are LOADS of ways to do what you want..... Simplest is using the Scheduler in windows. Next is using the AT command to schedule. Next is writing a script using WinBatch. etc. etc. etc..... Have Fun....
So you know of a piece of software that you can run with scheduler or the AT command & will not need any user input to copy the data to DVD. Lets take Nero for example you can setup a disk to be burnt & save it. This can then be run with scheduler but Nero still needs USER INPUT to burn the disk.
Ok, You want to use Nero... Download WinBatch from here: http://www.winbatch.com/download.html Write the Contol Script to copy/move files etc then run and control Nero. If you need help with writing the script, let me know. Have Fun...
