    thanks dudes

    HomerJ:

    Datawrtie Classic whats the playback like on them. what i mean is do you get the full use of the disk unlike Bulkpaq your lucky to get 10 to 30min's before they crash (pixel)

    a friend of mine used Datawrtie. dont think they were called Classic but after a wile got nothing but Grief and they dident like playing on ps2 aswell. ?

    were do i read what ian says

    one more thing. you use spruceup dont you
    i found it to be really easy program to use
    but my Question is can you add sub's to spruceup
    or am i asking to much from it.

    mikeh4692

    you never really siad what type you were using ?

    and is silicon concepts a shop or a website
    if a shop were about in scotland as am from scotland and i might be near it.
    just the city or town will do thanx

    HomerJ:

    i think you are right am going to stick to Quality. it is fine havining two films on one disk but then Quality wins hands down.

    Since using the Datawrite Classic media and burning images, I've had no problems with playback whatsoever, and I always try to make maximum use of disc space.

    Check out what Ian says at : www.lynxdv.com


    As for Spruce Up, yes, a great little programme, BUT it does NOT support subtitles.

    54321,

    silicon do list a datasafe media (I have used them in the past, but I believe they have now been superceded)

    Datawrite are one of their latest brands.

    Bottom line is, if you find a brand that works for you, stick with it.

    Problems then come when you find you can't get the brand when it comes to re ordering.

    However, because this is still an emerging technology improvements are coming along all the time.

    One name that crops up time after time is RITEK. If you can determine that what you are after is manufactured by RITEK, it's going to be pretty good.

    -----------------------------------------------
    this is what its all about nothing like running out of your brand then finding out the brand you want is out of stock. Traxdada is good at this.

    tryed your address you gave me www.lynxdv.com

    OUT OF STOCK
    AWAITING DELIVERY
    DISCONTINUED

    even tryed a few other sites
    its like people are eating them

    so its worth having a backup.

    54321,

    Yes, you're right, it's a mad world out there.

    I think with all those burners being sold (PC and standalone settops) REAL makers of DVD media can't keep up with the pace (but, won't tell you and me that)

    Just be a bit patient, and buy when stocks become available.

    Hey guys,

    Ok.. right now I am about to tear my hair out.

    I need help with the following:

    CCESP 2.64
    AVISynth 2.07

    Every application (WM, VSAPI, CCE) that I try to open the .avs file I have created just exits as soon as I try to load in the .avs - no erros, no hangs, no results!

    WTF am I doing wrong?

    What are you doing ???

    Please show us your *.avs script.

    The most common problem here is that your *.avs file is in fact *.avs.txt

    Have you checked this bit out ?

    Hmm.. codecs in DVD2AVI folder? 54321, could you tell me which codecs need to be in there?

    HomerJ:

    LoadPlugin("C:\windows\system32\MPEG2DEC3.dll")
    mpeg2source("H:\Matrix RIP\Resized\Menuless\Matrix.d2v",iDCT=5,CPU=0)

    That is my Matrix.avs file contents.
