Can DVDFAB burn directly to burner?

[Figaro]

I have not yet purchased a Blu-Ray burner but would like to. I've had great luck with the regular DVDFab. Almost no problems burning whatsoever. However I'm aware that the program first stores the data onto the computer's HD before it burns it. Since Blu-Ray discs require such a huge amount of info, is there a way to set DVDFab to burn directly to your Blu-Ray burner without having to first store the info onto the computers HD? I'm guessing the answer is no but thougth I'd ask before investing. I doubt if my current computer could handle the volume of data required from the blu-ray disc.

the answer to your question is NO as DVDFab is not a on the fly decryptor and needs to save the ripped file to HDD first before it can burn to DVD or BD in this case

If my computer's hd is too small to save BD data before it burns to the blu-ray drive, how successful would it be to change the OUTPUT AND TEMP directory under GENERAL SETTINGS to an external HD that is at least a terebyte size rather than using the computer's internal HD? Has anyone done this? Thanks in advance!

yes you can do this in the settings page (Green Tick) but with one proviso.

The external drive cannot be formayyed as FAT32bedause FAT32 has only ~4Gb limit on file size

Thanks! If there are no issues with XP Professional and DVD Fab Blu-Ray to Blu-Ray, I may give that a try.

hi , BTW if it was frmattedas FATwhat would Gb limit be ?

If formatted with Windoze, the limit is 32Gb but there are a lot of other utilities that I have tried that will format 1Gb drives as FAt32. fat32format.exe is one.
