Hello there, Lately i've been having alot of trouble with my DvD Backups. I was using offbrand media and had skipping problems, so i asked a friend whats up, and he suggested i burn at 4x (think i was doing 8x before..) So i did a few like that, and more often than not they worked, but i still didn't like how some would skip. So i did away with the offbrand stuff and bought 200 TDK DvD-R's 1-16x. My problem is, in nero with these new 1-16x TDKs, i can't choose a burnspeed less than 6x. with my crappy "computer essentials" dvd's i could pick 4x, but with these TDK's i can't. I've tried at 6x and still have skipping issues. Could this also be because of my cheap-end dvd burner/player (below). If my skipping problems could be for any other reason, any info is apreciated.

Also, Does anyone have any tips for DvDripping programs? i use cloneDVD but since alot of mine arent working for me, maybe i should try something else out.

Thank you.

DvD Burner: Lite-on DVDRW SOHW-1693S (I THINK is the model)
DvD Player: Cyberhome CH-DVD 300
Nero: 7 ultra
Media: TDK 1-16x DVD-R

TDK's are junk media too...

try verbatim or taiyo yuden, sony, maxell, fuji...

as far as your burner goes, see if the firmware is up to date, try this link...

It's fine that you can only burn 6x. I can only burn 6x, that's all media but Verbatim MCC002s. I honestly don't think burning 2x too fast is causing all those burns. I have that drive and I only burn 6x (mostly b/c taht's all I can choose from). I can even burn w/ 8x and still get a 90 on Nero's quality test.
