I am trying to burn in DVD Shrink 3.2 at 8x speed but it says its only burning at 2.4x. My media is DVD-R 8X. I kave the Lightscribe DVD +- Rewritable drive. Is there a way to change settings to recognize the faster speed? Thanks
sounds to me like you are using decrypter as your default burning engine maybe nero as dvd shrink does not have a burning engine or does not actually burn any-thing open up decrypter and change the speed then the next time you have shrink use that program it will default on that speed. but beware burning any faster than 4x as your chance of error is greatly increased
Open DVD Decrypter with a 8x dvd-r in the dvd tray. There will be a box to the right of the screen, a line will read "Supported Write Speeds". These are the speeds your firmware will allow with that type of media. If you are using low end media the burner manufacturer may recommend a lower burning speed or your firmware way be old and in need of an update.
Here are some tips: http://www.videohelp.com/forum/printview.php?t=180270&start=0&sid=8496ca639765ffeef0f3c8d621496369
Please see below info from DVD Decryptor. Where does it say Supported Write speeds?

@ bad1550 whoa there I see you have fixed one prob there is just one more I would suggest this is the most common prob but needs to be fixed asap or we will be hearing from you again all too soon. I would only use this media for trash can liner whatever you do don't let it near your burner try verbatim data life plus or maxxel both affordable and of good quality just trying to prevent future headaches
