It usually takes 15 minutes or so to backup a movie, however the last two that I did took an hour and twenty minutes. Anyone know what may have happened. One of the movies was an old one. I use Nero, and never had a problem before.
What speed are you burning at? I've heard of when the write speed is too fast, it can actually make the whole process slower. For example, I know someone who put their drive on 16x write speed and it worked GREAT for a while. Then all of a sudden the disc would start spinning too fast (almost out of control from what it sounded like) and making grinding sounds which ultimately slowed down the entire process. You couldn't even hear the disc spinning anymore, however it continued to write at a SLOW speed, maybe 1x or 2x.
I don't know if this is anything like you are going through, but I thought that I would add it just in case it could help.
Hope things start picking up speed in your department.
Sometimes compression is the factor,especially if you use the AEC enhancements- Adaptive Error Compensation enhancements. No compression,those AEC enhancements are grayed out,so you'll encode to harddrive then burn. With compression and the AEC enhancements ticked to Max smoothness,Max Sharp,Etc-the backup process time will take longer. It'll slowly analyze,then encodes to harddrive,and finally burn.
If it's just the burn,then uninstall your primary and secondary controllers,reboot-1 controller at a time like johnl123 posted.
