Playback

[kalisleeper]

Have an issue with playback. Some of the discs burned will not play on one of my dvd payers. Other projects it will. Any ideas? Running lasted version with W7.

Thanks.

The player says...disc not formatted correctly.

Try lowering your burn speed to half of the available speed, 4x and if still no luck try better blank media, those RitekF1 are usually hit and miss.

Newb question...how do I change write speed?


What discs should I be using?

Thanks for the help.

[W&B]

Open Fab, common settings (the little checkmark in the top RH corner) and select write in the left column. In the write speed dropdown is where you make the selection.
Verbatim and Tayio Yuden is highly recommended blank media, Verbatim is currently on sale at Office Max if you have one locally.

You can also download ImgBurn which you will find here with a tutorial on how to set it up as it is a far better burn engine than the VSO in Fab
