Hi there,
I got a new Sony DVD Burner installed on my machine, bundled with Nero 6.6 & Roxio 8 Home Suite.
1. Which is better a better DVD burning software Nero or Roxio?
2. Difference between R & RW I can make out so about Double layer, is double layer & dual layer the same thing?
3. What?s the difference between DVD+R & DVD-R & like wise DVD+RW & DVD-RW, In your personal experience, which is a better media *+* OR *?*, in case of either *R* or *RW*?
4. At what speeds should the DVDRs (+ -) & DVDRWs (+ -) be burnt for a good output.
5. Would you care to give yr comments on the following:
"Sony?s new DVD burner incorporates new 8.5GB DVD-R Dual Layer, DVD+R double layer burning and dual format 4.7GB DVD burning. Double/Dual Layer discs let you store up to 8.5GB on a single DVD+R Double Layer or DVD-R Dual Layer disc, giving you plenty of room for more video and audio entertainment, digital photo archives, and information storage. DVD+R burning speed is a blazing 16X max, burning a full DVD in approximately 6 minutes. Double Layer and Dual Layer Recording speed is 4X max. DVD+RW speeds are 8X max for DVD+RW and 6X max for DVD-RW respectively. Ultra fast 48X max CD-R burning means you no longer need a separate CD Burner for good performance. What hasn?t changed is the DRU-810A comes bundled with an unbeatable Nero 6.6 software suite and also includes a black front panel to match black colored PCs.?
6. Are the following correct?
a. -R better in versatility?
b. R more stable than RW?
c. Burn speed slightly lower but not lowest for a media?
d. Dual layer & single layer burning processes are the same OR some change is needed while burning a DL?
8. Stand alone DVD players work better with *- R* than *+ R*, can they play *+/- RWs* too OR standalone players don?t support RWs?
9. What are a few good soft wares to burn a movie to a DL DVD, should the media be +/- R or +/- RW?
10. What soft wares support a burnt movie that would play BOTH on a DVD-ROM optical drive & stand alone DVD player?
11. Should I look for the latest firmware updates for my Sony Burner?
12. Regarding a Movie DVD can it be burnt directly or copied first to hard drive?
13. What is reasonable good media in your view & experience for both +-R, +-RW?
Hoping to hear from you.
Regards.
Ivanov Yezinki.
