hi folks,a newbie here.Would first just like to say a big thankyou to the experts here from a previous post helping out a fellow newbie.Thanks to helping him out also helped me with my first rip. does anybody know why my dvd hardware that writes 8x and reads 8x still takes30 mins to burn onto an arita 8x dvd-r disc. I am using shrink and dvd-decrypter also have nero 6 installed. any tips gratefully recieved... Colin........... PS. It just took 28 mins and 40 seconds for a back up copy......
Hey fellow newbie ! Make sure your burner is configured to MASTER Then check the DMA settings of your IDE cable (start, right click my computer , properties, hardware, device manager , IDE controllers, then whichever one the burner is connected to. Then select advanced settings) The Transfer mode should be set to DMA if available. ~theres also some info on speed issues on my post as well . http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/93618 Best of luck to you Matt
Are you saying that the total time to rip the DVD and burn is 28 minutes?? If so, thats pretty good..... If thats just for the burning, well there is a problem. Could be the DMA/PIO mode problem, could be the media you are using, or could be your DVD Drive. What DVD drive do you have? Regards CoZZa
Hi,no it took decrypter that time to burn.... Not sure of the exact make,but on the box it has BTC and is a dvd dual. Colin...
Don't I feel like a prat???? lol. Have just had a good read on the box that burner came in.... DVD+R 8x write DVD-R read 8x/DVD+R 8x.But even so,should my discs be burning quicker than 28 mins? Col
