how could you burn at speed of 24x or 32x, if...

[betra]

Ok, my guestion is simple..I have a DVD drive that's capable of reading at 32x (or 40x, I am not sure) on CD...and a CD-burner capable of 12x writing speed. But the max burn speed allowed in my system is only 8x, because according to EZ creator, the source drive isn't fast enough to support 12x on the fly burning.
So how is it possible to burn at 24x when there is no 60x or 70x drive available in the market.

kenwood drives will let you do on the fly 72x true 52x true

usually liteon DVD/ or CDRW drives as the source will let you do it also

 

[betra]

oppps...looks like I need to get one of the kenwood drive if I want to realize my burner potential....which is 12x

get the liteOn x16 dvd drive which can read 20-48 CAV!

You can always image to your hd first, and then burn. If you're compiling custom CD's you'ld do this anyway. However if you just wanted to burn a copy of a CD, the extra step of imaging to the hd just adds time to the whole process, so you don't win here.

what are you running? because your system could be too slow.

 

[Nefrodite]

yup to hd 1st, hds can feed at insane speeds. unless you duplicating discs all the time you shouldn't be limited by source drive

I always burn on the fly..most of them are audio CDs...
Ok, I know some people would suggestion me to burn at lower speed (4x or 2x) but I got no problem at 8x, so I want to see how 12x will work for me.
Besides, I got this crappy NEC 12x10x32 burner and NEC 12xDVD combo...can't enable DMA( if I do, the computer will freeze during the burning process)...and no burnproof so having the same brand of combo doesn't necessary mean realizing max potential..

 

[betra]

and correct me if I am wrong, I don't think Nero support my drive
that's why I am with EZ CDcreator now

No, I don't think that could be the problem..

Abit KT7-133a

You could burn at 12X if it wasn't an audio CD... DAE speed is always lower.

For example, my Pioneer DVD is a 40X CD-rom, but DAE is 16X I think, maybe even 12X. While my Plextor burner, which is a 32X CD-rom can do DAE at 32X...

What's DAE? I heard of that term all the time. And how do I find out how fast my drive do the DAE?
And no, I was trying to burn some porno vcd..and 8x is still the max speed to choose from.

DAE= Digital Audio Extraction


Here's a list of DAE speeds, I think yours is #39...


As for not being able to copy a VCD on the fly, I think it's normal. Try copying the .dat file (the movie...) from the CD, you'll see it takes a long time because it's encoded in a different format then standard mpeg. I'm not sure, but maybe a 1:1 CD copy software like cloneCD would work better, if it supports your burner.

StorageReview.com will also give you good information on getting a CD/DVD ROM with high DAE speeds.

Same as my Yamaha, it requires disable dma.
I put my cd-rom drive and hd at primary ide channel, so they can have dma, leave the cd-rw alone at secondary channel being not dma.

I think u misunderstand me.....I can copy a VCD on the fly, just that I wasn't able to copy it at 12x but only 8x...and thanks for that link..it's really helpful, it even states that my NEC DVD-rom does not support for 12x burning

Damn...I have to try that software! Thanks...I luv ya
