In theory both Toast 7.0.2 and Pioneer 108 (installed internally in a G4 dual 1.25Gb PM with 2Gb RAM) work with dual-layer DVDs. I purchased some Verbatim DVD-R dual layer DVDs and have tried one to burn a film ripped by MacTheRipper. But Toast doesn't accept this media. It ejects it. Is there something I don't understand or is it a fallacy that the Pioneer 108 does dual-layer burning? thanks for any suggestions, elucidations. cheers. ncm
right off the man. website.. this drive doesnt support Dual Layer http://www.pioneer-eur.com/eur/product_detail.jsp?product_id=9014&taxonomy_id=43-92
Actually it does...but only DVD+R, not DVD-R which was what I was trying, being a Mac person and more used to - media. I just tried burning with a DVD+R spare I had handy and it worked fine. I assumed, since it supports both + and - formats in CDs that it supports both in dual-layer media. Not true. Rats. Now I have 10 virgin DVD-R media I need to sell, possibly to someone in France, since that's where I'm located and I don't want to ship internationally, sigh. Anybody interested?
