Download CloneCD version 2.5.6.2

And now the usual weekly CloneCD update. This time a slightly longer update list than usual:

New features:

• Reduced the default buffer size again. A large buffer often hurts more than it helps, because Windows will swap the buffer to the pagefile!
• Simplified the I/O Routines. This change makes the I/O code more maintainable and – according to customer reports- it seems like some strange bugs, that we were never able to reproduce on our test machines, are gone now.
• Improved stability of the read engine.
• Improved Installer & Uninstaller. User settings are now removed, if CloneCD is uninstalled, or a new version is installed. This fixes various problems caused by changed default settings.
• Some cosmetic changes

Compatibility fixes and improvements:

• All SANYO CD Writers:
  While a CD was erased, the computer could stop responding.
• SONY CRX-120E, HP8200i, HP8210i:
  Improved check, if writing is finished.
• SCSI MMC CD-ROMs (eg, Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-M1201):
  On certain source CDs, the wrong read mode was selected, causing a “Drive not compatible” error.

Bug fixes:

• The change of CloneCD’s I/O Routines seems to fix a number of strange bugs that customers have reported, eg program hang after writing to CD.
• 3rd try to fix rare problem of a crash, when the “File Info” button is clicked.
• Handling of the Info Window was incorrect.
• Some cosmetic bugs fixed.
