    burning rom is to slow

    should it take 30+ minutes to burn a movie at 16x with nero burning rom. or do i have something set wrong. when i had it on my old computer it would burn a dvd in less then half of the time. does anyone have any ideas. thanks

      Are you counting the encoding process in your 30 minute time frame? It can take as long as 30 minutes to encode and burn if using high levels of compression and the Advanced Analysis and Slow Burning features of Recode. I would still look into the DMA link provided by soup...just something else to look into.

        the primary idle is set on dma if avaliable in transfer mode. current transfer mode ultra dma mode 5. this is on device one. on device 2 its dma if avaliable. and current transfer mode says not applicable.

                ive got it down to 7.45 by changing dma settings. on the primary idle its set to dma ultra 5. on the secondary idle its just on ultra dma mode 2. but its still better then 30 minutes. this is on a multi episode season disc.

                  I would not burn faster than 12X even with the best equiptment, wonder what happened to make your drive lose dma mode?

                      Drives can revert back to PIO mode after a series of errors...typically 6 I think. So if you have tried to rip a scratched disc that recieved a series of erros this could have put your drive back to the slow transfer mode.
