I've recently purchased an LG 4120B burner and have had moderate success creating copies of DVDs. Actually, I think it's my standalone Pioneer DV-525 player so I've ordered a new one, a Pioneer DV-275. I've been trying different brands of media (Memorex, Fuji, Princo, Verbatim) in both -R and +R and -RW formats. I've been using DVD Decryptor and DVD Shrink to create the copies (I'm very grateful for the guides). I have a few general questions. What's the difference between erasing and formatting a DVD-RW disc? Should I burn at a low speed or should I burn at the highest speed capable for the burner and media that I'm using? Should I make sure there are no programs running in the background when I'm burning or does that make any difference? Will using DVD Decryptor and DVD Shrink give me a better chance of a good copy than, say, Nero and DVD Shrink? Thanks for any help you can provide. Rick
erasing and formating , erasing erases and formatting is (guessing)gettting ready to burn .i also never worry about other things running while burning a disk,and have had no problems .i use the two progams u mentioned dvd shrink and decoder and i highly reccommend both hope i helped u if not there r heaps of others here who can.cya
on the disk I've heard Verbatim is one of the best! Although I use Fugifilm disk with no problems! Speed, depends on your burner I have an 8x burn capable BUT I havent found any 8x discs! Go figure??? Programs in the back I recommand against!! Takes away your resources and may damage quality!! I use shrink and decrytper, never had a problem!! GL with it!! LD
