PlexTools gives extra support to Plextor hardware by enhancing the possibility to directly control specific functions.
PlexTools Professional has proven to be stable, precise and useful. It offers high quality audio and multimedia capabilities and advanced control of several powerful features of Plextor drives. The distinctive design allows ease of use for newcomers without compromising on the powerful features that experienced burners demand.
- General: Support for latest drives
- General: Improved writing performance
- Bug Fix: General: several minor bug fixes
- AudioCD Maker: when using Japanese characters with FLAC files, the tag information is not correctly saved and/or read out
- Disc Info: CD-TEXT which contains Japanese characters are not correctly displayed

Excellent program for autochecking firmware upgrades and for testing CD / DVD media quality. There is no other program I've encountered which works so well for media testing.
CD / DVD burning needs some work - this particular version craps out after attempting to write TOC on both my 716SA and 708A. Every other burning software (dvd decrypter, nero, blindwrite, etc.) works fine on my system.

Powerful software that aids a powerful drive, allowing you to do more than any other CD-R software. While it's missing a few features, or an ease of use found with other progrmas, it has many features, tests and copying abilities missing from most other packages.

I knew I like Plextor for a reason :-)
Great drives. Great software.

I love this application, and it performs flawlessly. Yes, Plextor drives are the best and their software is just icing on the cake.
I love the GUI and please don't "dummy it up" like Nero. The GUI is mean, lean and very functional (and let's keep it that way):).
CyberHobo out...!

Plexor Drives are the Best period. This software though it save memory is hard to use i would like them to make a easy menu like Nero's smartstart.
Reviewing 2.19a (Jan 8, 2005)
I'm glad to see they are shipping PlexTools with newer Plextor drives in the US now. It didn't come with any of my prior drives including the PX-708A. It now comes bundled with the PX-716A.
Generally speaking the software encompasses too many different uses, IMO. I like it for the general drive info, etc, aspects. As far as burning, ripping, etc, I'll use another program.

There's MUCH easier to use software out there than this. PlexTools is a pain in the ass.

To lassen: You only need the regfile...then upgrade works...
- this program use 37 700 kB of RAM...I think its so much... :/ But I also use this program for control my Plextor... ,))

Thanks, Anon. I have bought a lot of Plextor drives, and I have wanted to load Plextools Pro for years! Sweet!

Agon,
The registry modification code you presented is not allowing me to install this 'update'. Can you please present the code EXACTLY as it should be entered into Notepad? Is REGEDIT4 the first line, with the bracketed text the 2nd line, and the remaining stuff the 3rd line? Sorry for my confusion and thanks for the help.
Reviewing 2.10 (Jan 31, 2004)
Great software for Plextor drives. It's just too bad that this is not included with Plextor drives in the US [if not some other countries]. I'd prefer to just get PlexTools instead of the junk they bundle with the US drives. PlexTools Pro works great with my PX-708A DVD burner.

Repeat after me: "I will learn to read descriptions describing that this is for Plextor drives."
Useful app if you have a Plextor drive, like my Plextor Premium.
Reviewing 2.10 (Jan 31, 2004)
Yeah!
It?s a great application with many functions that other application does not have but only work with Plextor Recorders. And if they solve load time problem this application going to better and better.

Very nice small burning utils collection. Use it if you have a Plextor.
Reviewing 2.08 (Nov 18, 2003)
This is a stupid listing causing inconvenience as it is not a working progra. It is only an upgrade.
Reviewing 2.03 (Jun 2, 2003)
this soft (only the new versions) kill my scsi toshiba dvd drive. after firing up the plextor soft I can't access my dvd drive any longer, instead I get an error message. only after restarting the computer everything works again (till the next start of the plextools of course). so I dumped this s*** into the recycling bin. it's useless anyway, except for the "copy only first session" function, and I believe this function is need only for protected audio cds, which is useless anyway, since it's much easier to get all songs from p2p and burn them than to spend your time learning how to defeat audio protections

You can only use this with the new Plextor drives. I have a 16 speed write Plextor.

Once i start using this program when i bought i new plextor drive, i never stopped using it !! But i did stop using other programs , because this is all in one !!! ;-)
Nice job from plextor.

This program is great. And now they also added support for Ogg Vorbis. Very nice. I hope we see some support for FLAC also.
Reviewing 1.18 (Dec 30, 2002)
Exellent.. just bloody brilliant.. I dont know why.. but it persistantly uses about 2mb less memory when running as well now :D :P
Reviewing 1.17 (Dec 2, 2002)
The Plextor tools is supplied for the European region ..
The Plextor owners of other regions is excluded ..
Its not right , but this is how things are ..
The Plextor US ,is responsible for their own software updates ..
Reviewing 1.17 (Dec 2, 2002)
Mmmm true.. but a google trip will find u hundreds of hits of the FULL program online.. altenratively u could go on IRC.. and ask for a copy there.. loads of ppl have plextools.. and it IS freeware after all.. in addititon to it not working with nonPlex drivers so I dont see a big issue here..
Anyway its nice.. the cdrom builder could use some more options and stuff.. and its quite a resourcehog.. but still.. veyr nice.. esp if u have 2 or more plextdrives.. exellent duplocator then
Reviewing 1.17 (Dec 2, 2002)
This release is an UPGRADE to a previously-installed version of PlexTools. If you never installed it (like me) and then proceeded to lose the disk that came with the drive (again, like me), this won't do you any good.
