Is it bad if u burn a divx/xvid movie onto a 700mb cd-r @ speeds higher than 24x? Will the movie get off sync?

My very 1st post at this english-forum, yeah baby!

Well anyway, my personal recommendation is to burn as slow speed as possible, and this goes for everything (images, music-files, movies, data...). Burning at highspeed could (and does) cause some amount of damage to the files, i've seen (and heard) it happen (my friend did burn some cd-disks and around 1/4 tracks had these "blob blob blob" sounds on the background).

I also recommend to use some high-quality disks :)

Most of us follow this simple rule: burn no faster than 1/2 of what the disk is rated for; slower is better. Usually 4x to 8x for dvd's & 4x to 16x for cd's.

Not everyone is in the stone age nor does slower is better apply when burning movies today. If you have to burn your selected media at half speed you are using the wrong media for your burner. Here's some 8x TYG02's which I burn in my Pioneer 115D at 12x. Two scans (in my Benq) at 4X and 8x.







A quality burner and the correct media for it are the secret to good burns.
