AVS Disk Creator
Rating: 5
Version tested: 2.1.6.101
Description: AVS Disk Creator is a simple yet powerful CD/DVD burning program that offers many useful features including data verification, multisession support, and ISO support. AVS can read/burn a wide variety of media formats, including dual-layer and the new Blu-Ray.
This is one of the most powerful and best looking CD/DVD burning solutions; my definite choice for freeware programs in its category.
What this program offers:
- A straightforward design that is simple and easy to use. Working with files and folder (adding, deleting, renaming, etc.) is very intuitive.
- A clean, compact sleek look (comes replete with a handful of skins).
- Support for a wide variety of drives and media formats, including dual layer the next generation Blu-Ray formats. Supported media formats include: CD-R/RW, DVD+/-R, DVD+/-RW, DVD-RAM, Double/Dual Layer DVD and the latest Blu-ray technology BD-R and BD-RE.HD-DVD format support promised in future versions.
- Data verification option upon burn completion
- True multisession support; according to the developer’s website, you can add new files to a existing sessions that were previously created on other software, even on DVDs.
- Works with ISO disc images (create, read, and/or edit existing images).
- You can save projects that work on for later access.
- Bootable CD/DVD’s support promised in a future version.
What it will not do:
- Will not convert between ISO (disc image) formats.
- Will not convert your video files into a compliant VCD, SVCD, or DVD video discs.
- Will not burn your MP3’s into Audio compilation cd’s (unless you convert them to WAV’s yourself).
- Will not rip your Audio CDs into mp3s or other compressed formats.
- Will not copy CD’s, DVD’s
- Will not support any other naming convention besides JOLIET.
That it does not do these things, as far as I am concerned, is a definite PLUS, as (a) it keeps the program small and simple and (b) there is free software that does all of the above functions extremely well if you need them.
Definitely recommended!
Download ver 2.1 here. Program seems to be discontinued by the publisher, but you can visit the developer’s home page here.

This is not freeware any more!
In fact I cannot even find a download of it anywhere.
It appears as though it has been incorporated into a larger shareware app
Bummer as it sound like exactly what I am looking for.
Robert,
Indeed the developer seems to have pulled the plug on this one, but I’ve changed the links above so that you could download the last version that I had of this program (which I downloaded in Jul 2007 apparently).
Other options for you to consider are CDBurnerXP 4 or InfraRecorder. Also, a program that seemed to me to be very similar to AVS Disk creator is Jetbee free edition.
In my net browsing I stumbled on your comments concerning AVS Disc Creator. So, yes, you’re right, we (the official publishers of AVS software) no longer publish it on the site, however, I can assure you that now we’re enhancing the old version of AVS Dics Creator and soon it’ll be released and free. I’ll let you know. Thanks
Right now we offer 2 freeware on our up-to-date project http://www.avs4you.com It is AVS Mobile Uploader and AVS DVD Player. They are absolutely free and can be easily downloaded from our site.
I used this soft because is lighter than softwares like Nero or Roxio. I was reading a lot of reviews about AVS Disc Creator and I was convinced that it is the best choise but… I installed it, I used it and I have some disc without any information burned in… The AVS Soft don’t work properly… I’m very disapointed.. I will keep using the 1gb istallation but reliable Nero… T_T
Good to see Manufacturers know about your site - and are going to update it & keep it free!
Thanks for the ‘Old Version’ download link, Samer, I’ll give it a spin!
