661301 2008-04-22 11:14:00 HI guys,

Ive making my own music mixes onto cd using Nero.

The last day or two Ive noticed a dramatic decrease in the actual burning speed.

Normally it burns in at least 16x but now a meager 4x.

I just did a cd of flac files and wav files, could this be the reason why?

Just thought Id ask before investigating further.

Cheers
Rob

Obviously if it only goes to x2, x 4 whatever, it wont burn at 16x

661303 2008-04-22 11:31:00 Oh true. I didnt think of that, Ill have to check when I get back home. They are a new batch I dont normally use too. Thanks Speedy:thanks rob_on_guitar (4196)
661304 2008-04-22 11:33:00 No probs Speedy Gonzales (78)
661305 2008-04-22 11:39:00 Not sure about file type, maybe any differences in speed, due to file type, may have been evident in the buffer level during the burning process. I have found slow ups if the DMA mode for file transfers during burning or ripping process has been deactivated. Had to do a registry change once, as explained here (www.dvdplusvideo.com)... kahawai chaser (3545)
661306 2008-04-22 11:43:00 I get what you mean kahawai, Ill check it out too, cheers! rob_on_guitar (4196)
661307 2008-04-22 21:35:00 Also file size matters...hehe, doesnt it always?. Large file will burn quickly and transfer quickly, small ones take longer! SolMiester (139)
661308 2008-04-23 02:49:00 Just to confirm, yup Speedy you were correct, CD speed is only x4! Man I should have cheked that one first! rob_on_guitar (4196)
