    THATS impossible.

    I dont know how to put this in my spanglish... ill try...


    EXAMPLE 1-

    IMGBURN : 1X

    DVD native average speed: 4X

    DVD BURNER MAX : 1 MILLION X

    WICH SPEED DO YOU HAVE FINALLY ???


    EXAMPLE 2-

    IMGBURN: 8X

    DVD average speed; 4x

    DVD BURNER: 1MILL X


    EXAMPLE 3-

    IMGBURN : 4X / 1X

    DVD a/s : 4X

    EXTERNAL USB BURNER: 1 MILL X


    WELL...
    FOR ME :

    1- 4X

    2- 4X

    3- 3,3X (The best copies ever in verbatim 16x -R, i speak as a consoles tech))


    Setting the program to MINIMUM is just to forget that item forever, i never tryed 16x or something , if some of you did it, just tell us.
    I understand what you mean.

    But if you cannot get your burner to burn at 1x speed, it just means that your burner or the media used cannot go that slowly.
    Setting the speed to 1x will really cause the disc to get burnt at 1x speed it your hardware and media can run that slowly.

    My DVD burners all support burning at 16x speed, but my previous laptop's drive often struggled to get past 4x at the inner part of the discs.
    The lowest speed that all my DVD writers support is 4x, so setting the speed to anything lower is just dumb.

    I've always burnt my discs at 16x (Except when using an unreliable burner), and had no problems before (Even with my ex-SCPH-39001 that had a KHS-400C laser).
    Just use a reliable burner and high-quality Verbatim DVD-R discs.

    No. Not in IMGBurn.

    Lemme chime in here...

    From my experience with IMGBurn, setting the speed to 1x appears to tell the software (IMGBurn only) to automatically burn the disc at the lowest possible speed that the media/burner combination can safely support. You can see this for yourself by watching the log info at the bottom. It will say something like "Speed 1x not available. Using 4x speed instead", and then by looking at the average speed, you can see the lowest speed possible is used for your hardware configuration (usually something like 3.75x, depending). I use this method all the time myself. It is handy for folks who burn DVD's on multiple computers with varying hardware and media. This way, no matter what PC you burn on, you will always get a good burn.

    Also, IMO, Taiyo Yuden are the best DVD Media to use for burning PS2 games, if you can find them. They are the "behind the curtain" company responsible for the great quality that you can get from Verbatim (DataLife Plus, one of, if not the best, line of Verbatim media is made by Taiyo Yuden).
