I'm new to this DVDR marlarky. Basically I have a DVDR I'm trying to copy. I've done it a few times via putting on my hard drive and then burning via DVD Decrypter. Only problem is that it's reading and burning 0.2X so it's taking around 1.5 hours to read onto my hard drive then a further 1.5 hours to burn onto a DVD. The DVDRW I'm using is a Pioneer in an external caddy and I'm using Verbratim x8 disks. When I was settin up DVD Decrypter via using an online guide I was following, there was something about doing something to get quality rather than speed which I think might be the problem, but can't remember how or what I did? Can anyone help me?
hi i would of said dma but that does not come into it with a usb drive? i would try uninstalling devive from device manager and reboot , check cables etc...maybe even low on hard disk space?
Sounds to me like you built an external enclosure setup and it's not setup properly OR one of the components is not right or failing. Hard to say with the info you have provided. As far as I know there is no DVD Decrypter setting that will slow down a read THAT much.
Might be the USB thing. Don't know what USB thing I have, quite and old machine about 4/5 years old running ME so that could be it!
You can check in your device manager and see if it shows Enhanced USB host controller present, or just Standard.
Chances are that your burner is a USB2 so it will run at a far slower speed on your machine because as you stated your machine is 4/5 years old so it wont have USB2.
