Probably the InCD disks were formatted with Mt. Rainer format as InCD supports it
and I think defaults to it. directCD may not be able to write to it.
Thanks, sTeve.
This from InCD pdf:
1.2.2 Available packet-writing software
InCD is not compatible with other packet-writing software - so any other
application of this type present must be removed before InCD can be installed.
Prior to installation, InCD will check which applications have already been
installed, and close the setup process if a different packet-writing software
package is found. If this happens, a window will appear to draw your attention to
the fact.
1.2.3 CD-MRW (Mount Rainier)
It is only possible to format media in the Mount Rainier format when using
recorders that support the format.
In order to format media in the so-called CD-MRW (Mount Rainier) format, the
corresponding check box must first be selected when formatting with InCD. This
turns a CD-RW medium into a CD-MRW one. Drives without CD-MRW support
can only use these media with the aid of a 'remapper’ (see also the following
Section 'Remappers'). The check box is located on the 'InCD Page Settings'
card and is only visible if the recorder supports this function. It is described
in
detail in the 'CD-MRW' section.
You can also find out more about Mount Rainier at http://www.mt-rainier.org.
