Just bought one, to lightscribe 4 seprate pictures on one disk took about 28 minutes. I don't know as of yet if a more simple piture would take less, regardless its worth the wait!

pricing around it seems to be about an extra 20p or 30p on the media CD's or DVD's.... And for the writers it seems to be an extra £5 or £10 than you would pay for a non-lightscribe....

put a light scribe in the wifes computer she's got an old p4 3.2 with only a gig of ram
takes 15 - 20 minutes to burn the picture on
she thinks it's great
the darn discs are a pound each compared to my normal whitetops which are only 11 pence each

for real elaborate logos on a lightscribed disc, does the dual layer burners come with all the software or do you need to purchase extra software for the more elaborate logos
did they start selling dvd burners that burn both dual layer dvd -r's and dvd +r's with both lighscribe

on printing label you have to calibrate the printer for it to line up on the label.
do you have to calibrate the laser lightscribe burner in some way?

No calibration is needed, simply insert the lightscribe disk and away you go!

Well being newer technology, as of now, yes lightscribe will only scribe in shades of blacks and grays! Once lightscribe goes to colors.....say good bye to printable labels and cds!!!

i bought the hp dvd writer with lightscribe and i brought it back a week later. The top of the disk is like a copper color and your images inscribe in a light fade of black. Could be darker. I was making coaster like crazy. Every other disk i had to throw out. Either it said insert disk when there was one in there or just kept screaming at me error, error,sometimes it would say missing files. So i bought a sony dru-800ul and works like a charm. Burned over 100 disks so far and no problems.

I hear that the Nero program supports lightscribe now but I'm not positive if its the new Nero 7 edition or not. I bought my lightscribe drive as a add on to my computer system and the drive came with software called SureThing, I'm pretty happy with it......its easy to use and you can even make dvd & cd case covers with it! Their website is www.surething.com I this helps!

Also in reply to the remark up above I noticed if your dealing with pictures with darker backgounds ect. you can do a dual burn......once the cd is done it will automaticly eject (don't touch the cd at all) just reinsert it back in the drive and scribe it again....... I do this with most of my picture cds, they look much better and I have never had a messed up scribe yet........ with a disk that will just have letters, numbers, ect. one burn is enough! As for the kind of disk, I got a hold of some Memorex CD-R lightscribe disk and I'm very happy with them, as for DVD-R, +R's, whatever, I have only tried Verbatim DVD's and The pictures don't seem to look as nice as the Memorex, I not sure if its the media type or the maker? But then again I have not tried another DVD-R media maker yet either.

thx for your help but i was messing around with my computer & found that it already has the software to support the lightscribing. However, i was wondering on where can i find the graphics to do the lightscribing onto my dvdr's? For instance, i want to lightscribe like my movies. i made like backup copies just in case the original copy gets all stratched up. Where can i find those so i can downloaded them onto my hard drive and then lightscribe those pics onto my dvdr?

Well you have a few options, one to do alittle searching on the web......you might be able to find what you need..... two: scan the picture/title side of your dvd or three: get inventive and make your own custom dvd/cd label? As of yet I have no examples of any lightscribe dvds, but I have done a few games! I left an example of one at this link http://www.msnusers.com/CustomLightscribedisk
